To add to this: The original terminal where I issued the command I need might be busy, e.g. if I started some application in it. It might be inconvenient to suspend that application just to get at the command. Important special case: the application that’s occupying the terminal where the original command was entered is Midnight Commander running a sub-shell in which I want to repeat that command. --- via emacs-tangents mailing list (https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-tangents)
