This has been bugging me for several years, and today -- hopefully -- some kind soul is going to enlighten me ;> Several years ago, running ksh on several AIX and Solaris servers, and many, many simultaneous xterm's open on many boxen, commandline history was _common_ across all of my sessions on a given box. In other words, when I typed a long command string into one terminal, later switched to another terminal session on same box, then I could recall that particular command from history and edit/use it as I will. On bash setups, I am never clear which of many sessions gets the last word writing to ~/.bash_history ?!?! When I start another terminal session, I never know what will and will not be in ~/.bash_history! Is there a way to coerce bash to behave as my old ksh? What do you think? -- Best Regards, mds mds resource 888.250.3987 - Dare to fix things before they break . . . - Our capacity for understanding is inversely proportional to how much we think we know.
