Ingres 10.0 – “sql -history_recall” now enabled by default

History what?

For some time the Ingres terminal monitor has had the, slightly cryptic (to me at least), flag “-history_recall”. This flag allows you to use the cursor keys within a terminal monitor session to scroll through previous queries and edit them in-line. Users of Ingres on Windows have been able to do this by default, without any special flags, by virtue of Microsoft Windows Console API. As of change 2911 this feature is now active by default on UNIX/Linux and should be part of Ingres 10.0 when it gets released.
