Effectively Use History Commands in Linux
(itsfoss.com)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Seems like it's terminal-emulator-specific rather than a built-in shell feature
No, it's a shell feature. Terminal emulators don't even know what shell are running typically, and I haven't heard of them adding shell features. That would require the terminal emulator knowing you're using bash, knowing how to interrogate history etc..

man bash
:Neat! Other replies saying it doesn't work on their machine, I'll have to try it out in a few different environments.
