If the "Terminal" is konsole, history (and the ability to search it) is
available from the edit menu. Konsole has a "Bookmarks" menu, but it's
only for directories. It seems like a waste - if I bookmark /x/y/z, when I
click on the bookmark it executes "cd /x/y/z", why not just let me bookmark
either "cd /x/y/z" or "/x/y/z" and execute that? In fact, if you
terminated the bookmarked command with a / it could assume it was a "cd"
and so be compatible with the current bookmarks (which have trailing
slashes).

Of course, script wizards do that with an alias :-) (which you could put
in /etc/profile)
