This isn't very clear. At a guess, I think you are asking about command-line editing. What context are you using for command-line editing. People generally use vi or emacs (set -o vi, set -o emacs, respectively). google command history vi or command history emacs for usage.

I use putty for example
write this ls -ltr
after I write more test.txt
if I want to use ls command again should write -latr redialing is not saved to be used with the keyboard arrow riba, understood my problem?

I assume you mean something like this?

If so, it depends on the shell you are using. If you are using bash or tcsh then arrow-up should work. If you are using ksh (KornShell) then try the following:

First enter:

set -o vi

And then to access previous commands keep pressing:

ESC-k
