SQL Plus command line: Arrow keys not giving previous commands back
Please support our Oracle advertiser: PostgreSQL or MySQL? Compare and contrast the two most popular open source databases

Hi,
I am using Oracle 10g Express Edition on Fedora core 5 32+ bit os. The problem is when I use the SQL Plus command line to make SQL statements I can not get the previously typed command back at the prompt when I use the up and down arrow keys on my keyboard. This is quite easy when I am using a shell, but here with this Oracle command line interface it is not working at all. Here is the example as what actually is happening whe I press the up or down arrow keys.
SQL> drop table mailorders;
Table dropped.
SQL> ^[[A^[[A^[[A^[[A^[[A^[[A^[[A^[[A^[[A^[[A^[[A^[[A
Any suggestions ? Thanks............
