UP arrow button to recall previous commands in Putty

Hi,

I remember in my previous project, I used UP arrow button to recall previous unix commands (using putty on Sun OS), which I am not able to do in my new project... I do not know if this is some project specific settings or not...
when I press UP arrow button, all I get is ^[. I have to press Esc + "/" + Enter and n to get all previous commands, which is cumbersome compared to using only UP arrow key !

Any idea how can I get rid of this issue. It should show me all my previous commands so that I can easily navigate through them.

I hope you understand what I am saying here...

regards,
juzz4fun

glutButtonBoxFunc(3GLUT)					       GLUT						  glutButtonBoxFunc(3GLUT)

NAME
glutButtonBoxFunc - sets the dial & button box button callback for the current window. SYNTAX
void glutButtonBoxFunc(void (*func)(int button, int state)); ARGUMENTS
func The new button box callback function. DESCRIPTION
glutButtonBoxFunc sets the dial & button box button callback for the current window. The dial & button box button callback for a window is called when the window has dial & button box input focus (normally, when the mouse is in the window) and the user generates dial & button box button presses. The button parameter will be the button number (starting at one). The number of available dial & button box buttons can be determined with glutDeviceGet(GLUT_NUM_BUTTON_BOX_BUTTONS). The state is either GLUT_UP or GLUT_DOWN indicating whether the callback was due to a release or press respectively. Registering a dial & button box button callback when a dial & button box device is not available is ineffectual and not an error. In this case, no dial & button box button callbacks will be generated. Passing NULL to glutButtonBoxFunc disables the generation of dial & button box button callbacks. When a new window is created, no dial & button box button callback is initially registered. SEE ALSO
