Sounds like you're using bash. It shares history across all shells. However, the command "history 1", when used by the function called from $PROMPT_COMMAND, should contain the last command executed for _that_ shell. Which would suffice: atprompt() { ttylabel "$HOST $PWD <`history 1`>" } Cheers, -- Cameron Simpson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> DoD#743 http://www.cskk.ezoshosting.com/cs/ When I die, I want to go sleeping like my grandfather...
