You can hit up arrow to step through history. You can then hit Enter to copy the selected history item into the edit buffer.

But there is a problem: when the cursor is in the denominator of a fraction (or some place like that), then when you hit up arrow it moves the cursor to a different part of the editor buffer before it starts stepping through history. The result of this is that when you hit Enter, the item you copied does not end up where you want it to go in the edit buffer (last place cursor was before starting to hit up arrow). [Incidentally, TI calculators have this form of copy and paste and have this exact same problem.]

But there is almost a good work-around. If you hit Shift-Up Arrow, it jumps directly to the first item of history without disturbing the cursor position within the edit buffer. If you then step forward to the item you want and hit enter, it is copied to the right place.

Anyway, I'm looking for a better work-around to this issue. Maybe Shift-Down Arrow should move to the last item of the history while leaving the cursor alone on the edit buffer. Normally Shift-Down jumps directly to the edit buffer, but if you are already there, then this alternative behavior would be a better convenient work-around to the above issue. Or maybe Shift-Up Arrow should escape the edit buffer (selecting last history line), and only a second Shift-Up Arrow jumps to the top. I think this is even more intuitive.
