Hi,

I use xboard on a Linux machine to play on ICC. Is there a way to repeat commands that I've typed using arrow or some other keys?

Thanks.

Maybe this is a bit off topic but hey, it's great to hear about xboard on Linux! I've too little info to answer something useful but if arrows don't work (they do on my SuSE 9.x/KDE) try pressing [Esc] and then [K]. If that doesn't work type this: "set -o vi" and press [Enter]. Then try the [Esc] and [K] sequence again.

Hi,

The arrow keys should work.

Btw, why don't you add a little bit of information about yourself in your profile?

Are you from India?

Best regards,

[Esc] and [K] does not work.
Where should I type "set -o vi"?

Yes, I am from India.

Arrow keys don't work for some reason.
