About Using the Console Window History (Visual LISP IDE)

You can retrieve text you previously entered in the Console window by pressing Tab while at the Console prompt. Each time you press Tab, the previously entered text replaces the text at the Console prompt. You can repeatedly press Tab until you cycle through all the text entered at the Console prompt during your VLISP session. After you've scrolled to the first entered line, VLISP starts again by retrieving the last command entered in the Console window, and the cycle repeats. Press Shift+Tab to scroll the input history in the opposite direction.

For example, assume you entered the following commands at the Console prompt:

(setq origin (getpoint "\nOrigin of inyn sign: "))
(setq radius (getdist "\nRadius of inyn sign: " origin))
(setq half-r (/ radius 2))
(setq origin-x (car origin))
(command "_.CIRCLE" origin radius)
