Thanks, I didn't know about the F7 or F8 commands.

My 'Discard Old Duplicates' was already disabled (default?).

Subject: [issue44627] Python terminal cmd line recall

Eryk Sun <eryk...@gmail.com> added the comment:

By default, reading input from the console uses the console's built-in 
command-line editor. You can clear the console input history with Alt+F7; 
display the history list with F7; navigate in the history list with the up and 
down arrow keys, even when the list isn't displayed; recall the first and last 
entries of the list with page up and page down; and cycle through matching 
command completions with F8.

Having said that, the new implementation of the console in Windows 10 has a bug 
in the "Discard Old Duplicates" history option [1]. Try disabling this option 
in the console's "Properties" dialog, which can be accessed from the Alt+Space 
control menu.
