Greetings,

Is ied available for AIX ans if yes where can I down load it. I once saw
somebody using on SUN also.

Here is some info of ied:

HP/UX has a nice feature called 'ied'. 'ied' is "input editor and
command history for interactive programs."
It can also be used with SQL*Plus and SVRMGRL to provide command
history.
Examples: ---------
$ ied -s 8192 -h $HOME/.sqlhistory sqlplus
$ ied -s 8192 -h $HOME/.sqlhistory svrmgrl or, as an alias:
$ alias sqlplus='ied -s 8192 -h $HOME/.sqlhistory sqlplus'
$ alias svrmgrl='ied -s 8192 -h $HOME/.svrmgrhistory svrmgrl'
In the above examples, when you start SQL*Plus or SVRMGRL, all previous
commands can be accessed as usual: <ESC>k <ESC>j in vi-mode

Regards & thanks
BN
