This applies when the box is empty or when you have edited text recalled from your history.\n\n- Pressing Up first tries to restore that text (`restoreCleared`). This works only if the box is still empty, and the cursor moves to the end of the restored text.\n\n- A new notifier for when a selection is taken down in fullscreen mode is also added.\n\n**Why**\n\nIf Ctrl+C wipes a prompt you were still writing, pressing Up gets it back instead of making you retype it.\n\n- Area: Input Box\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 3\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
