A patch to do this was posted on 2007-09-29 by Glenn Davis. Some people
not addicted to Matlab find the behaviour very inconvenient and prefer the
getline/readline behaviour (triggered by ^R/^S) of Rterm and R on Unixen.

Hi all,
In R GUI window, if you use "up" and "down" key, you will be able to recall
the previous and next command that has been used and stored in the command
history cache.
But there is one inconvenience:
Or an inconvenience of Matlab not shared by R, depending on your
preferences.
In Matlab, you can type the first a few characters of the command that you
previously used,
and then press “up" key, you will be able to get to that previous command
very fast,
no matter how long ago it has been used...
In R GUI, there is no such functionality.
Any thoughts on making R work my productivity?

Also where do I find good debugger for R?
Thanks!
