anything to happen, since no sequence of commands exists yet. In normal
operation, typing ^p will cause the previous command to show, and the cursor will
sit at the end of the command. At this point, the user can either type a carriage
return to accept the command, or type backspaces to edit the command from the
end, or ^p to display the nextmost previous command in the sequence, or ^n

stores a total of up to 15 previously-entered commands in a sequence that can be
invoked through ^p’s and ^n’s.
