Re-run history command

Hi All,

How can I re-run a particular history command? (Like in Linux we can run it using !)

# history
65 cat /etc/passwd
66 swlist -l bundle | grep -i quality
67 swlist -l bundle | grep -i gold
68 ps -ef | grep sshd
69 swlist -l product | grep sshd
70 swlist -l product | grep ssh
71 kctune

Many a thanks..

You can use fc to redo commands. Or you can use escape k or escape /string to search.
