Example 1: grep history in windows
Use doskey in Windows for requesting your command history. For that you first
have to create once a storage file in some directory as follows:
doskey /history > C:/history.txt
Then just use doskey command together with fidstr to filter your history:
doskey /history | findstr "substring"
