history, post 4.2

[Daniel J S. <dan...@ie...>]

How about being able to recall from the history via number:

gnuplot> history 5
  162  myval = 123
  163  show vars
  164  show variables
  165  plot x + myval
  166  history 5
gnuplot> history !165
                  ^
         not in history

which would be useful if the history gets quite long and the user wants to recall a long ago command that is very similar to one more recent?
