This will show you the last x number of commands you typed in which is controllable with the history command. To rerun a command prefix the command number with a !. If you want to rerun your last command use !!. tcsh has a much better facility that lets you scroll through your command list using either keyboard combinations or the up and down arrow keys. I'd suggest you get a copy of O'Reilly & Associates "Using csh and tcsh" for all the details.
