You can expand and collapse the Command History in the Command Line
using the indicated control.
Within the Command History, use the Up Arrow and Down Arrow keys, the
scroll bar, or other scrolling method to locate and then highlight previously
entered commands, system variables, and text.
By default, pressing Cmd-C copies highlighted text to the Clipboard. Pressing
Cmd-V pastes text from the Clipboard to the Command Line.
To copy all the text in the Command History to the Clipboard, right-click and
select Copy History from the shortcut menu, or enter the COPYHIST command.
To save commands automatically to a log file starting with the next command,
enter the LOGFILEON command.
Work with Shortcut Menus
Display a shortcut menu for quick access to commands that are relevant to
your current activity.
Shortcut menus can be used to:
Display the controls for a user-interface element such as a palette or the
status bar
Control the command in progress, including command options, object
snaps, and canceling
Display a list of recent input or repeat the last command entered
Cut, copy, and paste from the Clipboard
Display a dialog box, such as Drafting Settings or Preferences
Undo the last command entered
In the Application Preferences dialog box (the OPTIONS command), you can
customize right-click behavior to be time sensitive, so that a quick right-click
acts the same as pressing Enter, and a longer right-click displays a shortcut
menu.
