The command line listener does not have keybindings for history or
searching, you can get that two ways:
1) using ``rlwrap ./factor`` which has the effect of adding history and
emacs ctrl-a/k/d/n/p keybindings
2) using ``./factor -run=readline-listener`` which has a per-session
history, emacs keybindings, and adds tab completion similar to the UI
listener.
The UI listener implements history support in
``ui.tools.listener.history``, and it would probably be pretty easy to
implement saving and loading of history similar to how readline does it, if
anyone wants a project :-)
