Making the command line more powerful - configuration help needed

[Gábor Iglói]

Hi!

I've seen in some of the distros that the bash/terminal is capable of
a very cool command history search - if I type in the beginning of a
command and I press PgUp/PgDown I get back to my previously executed
commands beginning with the typed-in letters.

So how can I set my Ubuntu OS to be able to use this nice history
handling behavior?

Thanks in advance
Gábor
