csh and arrow keys on Solaris 9

Hi.

When I was doing administration on FreeBSD, I used csh as my default
shell, when I mistake a command, I pressed up arrow key and the typed
command showed up and I edited it. Now, on Solaris sparc 9, I use the
same shell but when I press the up arrow key, this appers:

nietzsche% prtconfig | grep cpuu
prtconfig: Command not found
nietzsche% ^[[A
^[[A: No match
nietzsche%

I wonder how can I edit the mistyped command and correct it. In general,
I am facing problems while doing simple tasks on command line. I am
using a Sun type 6 usb unix keyboard and default us keymap. I would like
to know hints and tips for command line editing but the ones I used on
freebsd are not applicable.

Thanks in advance.
