I can see any *ONE* previous commands by using the up-arrow key.
But I need to see the *complete* history. F1 is no "Help".
Obviously its stored in a file. Where?
TIA




Well, for Bash, the file is at ~/.bash_history (as set in $HISTFILE), but, beware, it is only updated when the terminal is closed.

Bash provides the 'history' command, which shows the entire history.
