Uh, the history command?  history | grep <command you look for>

Or there's the UP arrow in the terminal. Does what that DOS tool did.

Years ago, I used a tool called CED and PCED on DOS systems.  I could
type in "abc" and press an up-arrow and it would walk back through my
stack of DOS commands showing only those with "abc" in them.

There's *got* to be a similar tool for bash, but my google-fu is weak today.

Thanks for suggestions or links.
