orientdb-community-2.1.12 history tab - orientdb-2.1

Is there any way that I can help get the "Search in history" dialog box in the orientdb-community-2.1.12 web interface to work? When I type a word into it, for instance "select" it returns "Warning You are clearing history. Are you sure?" just as if you clicked on the trash can.
I would be very happy to register this as a bug if it really is.
Sincerely,
Flint

One work around is to run the command line version of orientdb. You do this by starting the console.sh program. This keeps a shell history, and while it is not so convenient to cut and paste between windows, heck. it works.
To get a history file, reasonable way is to grep through:
orientdb/orientdb-community-2.1.12/bin/.orientdb_history

R clear code completion suggestions

It seems like R studio shows me code completion suggestions from datasets that I haven't used in ages. I've searched everywhere, but can't figure out how to delete these old suggestions from the drop-down menu. Where does R get its code completion suggestions from, and how can I delete irrelevant suggestions?
In the Environment tab, click on the broom icon. You will be prompted with a dialog "confirm remove objects". If you click yes this will clear all data from the environment. If you save upon exit your will start with a clean environment.

Anyone know how to set Notepad++ as default text editor for SAS, Stata and R?

Anyone know how to set Notepad++ as default text editor for SAS, Stata and R?
I'm having the hardest time finding anything online (particularly for SAS). Looking for ability to run code from Notepad++ as well as setup color coding.
Thanks.
Why not just go the GUI route: right click, e.g., any foo.R file and select "Open with...", then pick Np++ and click the "always open this file type.." button. Rinse, lather, repeat.
BTW, for R, if you don't already have it, get "NppToR" , a little app which lets you execute code directly from the Npp window.
On windows you can either:
manually edit the keys for the file type to set the value of HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\FILE_TYPE\shell\edit\command where FILE_TYPE is the appropriate one for each of the files extensions you wish to change this is quite hard work or
you can use a program that does it for you such as the free Default Programs Editor
In either case the first thing to do is to back up the registry.
I would seriously suggest looking into using one of the many, some free IDEs as they will automatically include the run from edit environment, syntax highlighting, code completion and, in many cases, debugging as well.
Notepad++ is my favorite editor and I was in the same shoes as you are now.
I am assuming that you are in Windows (Notepad ++ doesn't exist in Mac, saddest thing for me)
Please follow the steps mentioned in the below webpage and do as the author says.

Now for in-line editing , it may be not be the best choice for SAS. Although I haven't tried it much so not a good person to comment on it.

retrieving a line of code after pressing the down-arrow key

If I type a line of R code at the cursor and press 'Enter' I can immediately retrieve that code by pressing the up-arrow key once. However, if I am typing a line of code and accidentally press the down-arrow key once then that line of code disappears and I cannot retrieve it. This is a minor, but ever-present annoyance, most frustrating when typing data into a vector.
Is there a way to retrieve a line of code after accidentally pressing the down-arrow key?
I am using a Windows machine and the R GUI found on my desktop immediately after installation... ...I think one of the questions during installation is whether I want a short-cut on my desktop, and I select 'yes'.
this is completely dependent on the GUI. I believe (but am not certain) that RStudio, for example, preserves what you have typed.
While not a direct solution, what might be helpful is to use edit in an external window. I dont use windows, but I suspect if you hit ctrl+n you will get an editor in which you can then use F5 or ctrl+R to execute that specific line.
Personally, I use Sublime Text 2, and cmd+enter gets my code executed at the console
I found that if I open R and click File then New Script in the R menu an editor will open. I can type a line of R code in that editor. Then I can highlight that line of code and press Ctrl+R, as mentioned in Ricardo Saporta's answer and djhurio's comment. By pressing Ctrl+R that line of R code will execute. The line of R code remains visible in the editor and seems safe from being lost even if I accidentally hit the down-arrow key.
Hopefully this builds on Ricardo Saporta's answer enough to warrant being posted as another answer, although I would not have figured this out without Ricardo's and djhurio's help.
P.S.
In retrospect, I see now this is what Ricardo meant in his second comment beneath his answer.

Tidying up history in RStudio to document an analysis

I am doing some analysis in Rstudio and at the moment - as I am refreshing my knowledge of R after a few decades away from S - this involves writing lots of one-liner statements which operate on test datasets, and then inspecting/testing the output, then finally scaling it up when I've checked all the little bits work.
So my history is full of syntax errors and similar. But I am making progress every time I work, and each time I work there are statements that worked, that I want to save, in order to document the bits of the session that are worth saving. Is there any established way of extracting these from my history for re-use, in RStudio? Should I just scroll through after each session and copy and paste them into a textfile with a word processor? Or is there something more clever than that that I can do, staying within RStudio?
The easiest way to see your history, is to hit Ctrl-4 and that will bring up the history window. You can copy this to source and then edit it, or where ever. However, for what you are doing it is probably better to edit directly into a source window.
The setup I use is to have a script window open, and use ctrl-enter to run the current line.
To make this easier go into Tools>Options>Code Editing and ensure that "focus console after executing from source" is unchecked and your cursor will stay in the script after the line is executed.
You can now type your lines and edit them until they do what you want, then move on to the next when it works. Once you get to the end you have built up your script already. Also since your "history" is just their in front of you, it is much easier to skip back to older lines and rerun or modify them. If you want to run a block of code, simply highlight the block and hit ctrl-enter.
In the history panel in RStudio (top right panel), you can click "send to source" and it will copy the line you have selected over to whatever .R file you have open in the top left panel.

Under R,regarding getting the list of the commands previously typed

Under R, is there a way to list all of the commands that have previously been typed?
Yes there is.
history(max.show=Inf)
IDEs for R often support this feature in a panel. RStudio, for instance, has a history tab from which you can send a previous command to the console or to your source file with a click. I believe others are similar functionality as well.
