Does this not work in version 11.2.0.3.0?

I'm running 12c, and I'm not sure why, but the history command does not work. I get SP2-0042" unknown command "history". Any idea why this command would be missing, and how to add it?

What did you press at 1:05? I press enter and it goes to a new line.

Big deal. SQLcl has a real history capability, not a command, just up and down arrow.

Really? It's that bad? Why not simply press cursor up and down? And why can I not go left and right to change a typo? Wow... This adds all up to my hate to Oracle DB. But the graphical setup was the worst on a headless machine in a LXC container...
