Command buffering rules

The system follows these rules when buffering commands:

• If you use incomplete keywords when entering a command, the system buffers the command in the exact form that you used.

• If you use an alias when entering a command, the system transforms the alias to the represented command or command keywords before buffering the command.

• If you enter a command in the same format multiple times in succession, the system buffers the command only once. If you enter a command in different formats multiple times, the system buffers each command format. For example, display cu and display current-configuration are buffered as two entries but successive repetitions of display cu create only one entry.

• To buffer a new command when a buffer is full, the system deletes the oldest command entry in the buffer.
