A reverse-search function may accept user input and search back through previously executed and stored data forwarding device control instructions for a data forwarding device control instruction, at least a part of which matches a search string input by the user. The matching data forwarding device control instruction may be retrieved and rendered. A reverse-expand function may accept user input, and search back through previously executed and stored data forwarding device control instructions for a data forwarding device control instruction having an word or parameter, at least a part of which matches a search string input by the user. The first matching word or parameter may be retrieved and rendered. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The disclosed invention helps users to input command instructions more efficiently and accurately by accepting user input, and if it is determined that a reverse-search is requested based on the accepted user input, then searching back through previously executed and stored data forwarding device control instructions for a data forwarding device control instruction, at least a part of which matches a search string input by the user.
The matching data forwarding device control instruction may be retrieved and may be rendered.
The present invention may also provide a method for inputting a word or parameter of a control instruction for a data forwarding device.
Such a method may accept user input, and if it is determined that a reverse-expand is requested based on the accepted user input, then searching back through previously executed and stored data forwarding device control instructions for a data forwarding device control instruction having an word or parameter, at least a part of which matches a search string input by the user.
The first matching word or parameter may be retrieved and may be rendered.
The present invention may provide a control instruction interface having (a) a storage device for storing previously executed data forwarding device control instructions, (b) an input device for accepting user input; and (c) a reverse-search facility.
The reverse-search facility may be adapted to accept user input from the input device, and determine whether a reverse-search is requested based on the accepted user input.
If it is determined that a reverse-search is requested, then the reverse-search facility may search back through the previously executed data forwarding device control instructions stored in the storage device for a data forwarding device control instruction, at least a part of which matches a search string input by the user.
The control instruction interface may also, or alternatively, include a reverse-expand facility adapted to determine whether a reverse-expand is requested based on the accepted user input
