I open buffer scratch
and execute 3 commands sequence:
M-x I-searchhelm-occurreplace-stringhere sreenshots:
Nice. It's work fine. But now I want to show in list all of this commands in stack mode.
Smt like this:
replace-string
helm-occur
I-search
And then I want to select one of them (e.g. I-search) and execute them.
How I can do this?
If you are looking to have commands that you previously entered at the M-x prompt available as completion candidates, then Icicles can help.
There are several ways in which you can use completion against candidates from minibuffer histories. One simple one is to use M-h. For example, M-x M-h shows your M-x inputs in buffer *Completions*. You can type text to complete or just cycle to the command you want, etc.
UPDATE to reply to comment question:
You can download Icicles from EmacsWiki. See Downloading Icicles Libraries.
Looks like you already use helm - as you gave the example of helm-occur. Helm comes with helm-minibuffer-history - try
M-x helm-minibuffer-history
The usual way of selecting helm candidates works here too.
There are any number of minibuffer histories, each recording minibuffer input for various calls to completing-read.
You seem to be looking for the history of commands entered at the M-x prompt. Variable extended-command-history records that history. So just use C-h v extended-command-history to see the list in *Help*, or just evaluate extended-command-history in Lisp to get the list.
extended-command-history, are not user options. They are used to record minibuffer input. You or Lisp code can use them (including reset any of them) at any time. C-h v shows a list value for extended-command-history: the commands you invoked using M-x. In the example you cite, you apparently invoked (only) those 4 commands using M-x.
