Did you know that the DOS window also works with function keys? Read all about this handy tip from John Vanderaart here.
Yes, the DOS window works with function keys! Here’s how… F1 pastes the last command given character-by-character on the command line. F2 pastes the last command given up to the character you entered on the command line. F3 pastes the complete last command given to the command line. F4 removes the current command (from the text cursor) up to the character you entered from the command line. F5 to scroll through some recently issued commands 1-by-1; without rotation.
