I just recently discovered that pressing alt-tab on a console window allows me to autocomplete from the last commands and parameters I used.
Very useful!
But when using SSH from Windows this feature is obviusly lost.
Is there a way to remap this function to another key(s)?

This is the action tied to readline's function
dynamic-complete-history
.You can redefine such action in
~/.inputrc
, for example to Alt-z withwhere
\e
means ESC and is equivalent to an Alt modifier.Also take into account this other possible solution: How to quickly store and access often used commands?
