I was working through a bug the other day and using SQL*Plus, which for the most part doesn't annoy me too much. However, one of the things that does, is having to retype lots of stuff. (We dont have that problem in SQL Developer).
Having hunted around for a few minutes, I found rlwrap which is a GNU readline wrapper. All this means is that when we use it on SQL*Plus, it give us keyboard history and user defined completion. I've found a few posts about it too, which are referred to below, but I wanted to do this for our virtual machine.
