Retain command history between sessions like ipdb can

[rob-levy-minimum]

When I drop into a debugger with this setting in pytest.ini:

    --pdbcls=IPython.terminal.debugger:TerminalPdb

then I can use the up/down arrows (or ctrl+P) to browse command history from previous ipdb sessions. I don't know how on earth this works but it's incredibly useful.

Is this possible in pdb+?

The up/down arrows are working for me for the current session. History isn't saved from previous debugging sessions. You can probably combine Pdb+ with the IPython debugger if you want to merge the abilities.
