1.8 Command-line-editing
Command-line editing and command history are supported using either an external gnu readline library, an external BSD libedit library, or a built-in equivalent. This choice is a configuration option at the time gnuplot is built.
The editing commands of the built-in version are given below. Please note that the action of the DEL key is system-dependent. The gnu readline and BSD libedit libraries have their own documentation.
`Line-editing`:
^B moves back a single character.
^F moves forward a single character.
^A moves to the beginning of the line.
^E moves to the end of the line.
^H deletes the previous character.
DEL deletes the current character.
^D deletes current character, sends EOF if the line is empty.
^K deletes from current position to the end of line.
^L,^R redraws line in case it gets trashed.
^U deletes the entire line.
^W deletes previous word.
`History`:
^P moves back through history.
^N moves forward through history.
