this only works if you're interested in a command from a few minutes
ago.  i often find myself searching for the same command a couple of 
days later at a different terminal.  in /n/sources/contrib/quanstro there
is a history program history.c that works with rc-history.tbz or futharc.tbz.
(rc with history and a break statement.  very fancy.)

i guess now i've blown my plan 9 cred.  ;-)
