>> What happens when you do it the second time?
Unfortunately, .sh_history doesn't stay dead:

I've been running tramp a lot :-)

At least three outcomes are, at least theoretically, viable:
0 Make .sh_history disappear _during_ the tramp session.
This would be nice, but so far no one has made this happen.
1 Make .sh_history disappear _after_ exiting the tramp session.
This appears feasible. (Has anyone else tried this?) While inferior
to outcome 0 (one could still overquota during a tramp session), it
would at least stop .sh_history from growing across sessions.
2 Do nothing.
This is bad for those of us who both have quotas and who forget to
delete the .sh_history after tramp sessions.
Personally, I vote for outcome 1.
YMMV, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
