Just out of curiosity, this mechanism is obviously something of a work around
to give bash a single shared history in the same style as ksh had.
Has there ever been any thought of providing a mechanism to support a single
history session in a more native way? I know that zsh has the setopt
Thanks Chet.
Couple of notes:
1) I’m not setting HISTFILESIZE, only HISTSIZE. HISTFILESIZE is getting set for
me based on my choice of HISTSIZE (though I assume this is something that bash
does that you know about).
2) As mentioned in the initial bug report, if I set PROMPT_COMMAND='history
