Do you mean the option itself or setting options? Setting options is not so different in the most shells I think. If you mean the option itself then ... ,----- | % man bash | col -b | grep -A 3 histappend | histappend | If set, the history list is appended to the file named | by the value of the HISTFILE variable when the shell | exits, rather than overwriting the file. | % | % man zshoptions | col -b | grep -A 5 APPEND_HISTORY | APPEND_HISTORY <D> | If this is set, zsh sessions will append their history list to | the history file, rather than overwrite it. Thus, multiple par- | allel zsh sessions will all have their history lists added to | the history file, in the order they are killed. | | --- | INC_APPEND_HISTORY | This options works like APPEND_HISTORY except that new history | lines are added to the $HISTFILE incrementally (as soon as they | are entered), rather than waiting until the shell is killed. | The file is periodically trimmed to the number of lines speci- | fied by $SAVEHIST, but can exceed this value between trimmings. `----- You see the difference? :-P So long, tkr -- What you don't know can hurt you, only you won't know it.
