  17. tcsh hints --
  18.  
  19. You may bind e.g. F-keys to perform your 500-times-a-day commands by
  20.  
  21.    bindkey -c key-seq command
  22.  
  23. and it wont even hit the command history, if that's what you so badly want
  24. to avoid.  You may even
  25.  
  26.    bindkey -c key-seq \!$EDITOR
  27.  
  28. if you know what I mean.
  29.  
  30. And a history-search-backward + newline function might be set up as
  31.  
  32.    bindkey -s key-seq '\ep\n'
  33.  
  34. See?  You enter the start of the command you want reexecuted and hit
  35. the chosen key.....  Pling.
