Either download bash from sun.com (in the bigadmin section) or use korn shell. If you use $ ksh -o vi then k will bring up your last command

as some people already said - use a shell that has "history" capabilities - bash, tcsh (not csh) etc. and use (for tcsh, in ".tcsh") something like: set history=100 (or how many commands you want to keep).
