### Current typed commands
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

Say you have typed a long command and forgot to add `sudo` in front:

```console
|
|
|
|
|
$ apt-get install build-essential
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By pressing the <kbd>esc</kbd> key twice, you will have the same command with `sudo` prefixed without typing:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
|
|
|
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential
|
|
|
|
