idl/idlde command line autocomplete [message #30834]

Having switched from MatLab to IDL I miss alot the command line
autocomplete functionality in IDL command history.

Example:
idl> a=5
idl> help,a
idl> print,a
idl> he <up-arrow>

typing 'he' on the command line and pressing the up arrow key should
give me the most recent command starting with 'he', namely 'help,a'
Is there an option/does anyone have a plugin to obtain this functionality?
