If I close Vim and I reopen it, all the history is gone.
It looks like Vim can't write the history.
BTW in which file does Vim write the history ?
It might be a rights Linux pb.

:set viminfo?
viminfo='100,<50,s10,h

Your viminfo should include items for the history as mentioned in my previous email. I think you want

  :set viminfo+=:50
  :set viminfo+=/50

though from my reading, if 'viminfo' has a non-empty value and doesn't explicitly have ":0" or "/0" to force no-history-writing, it should default to the value of 'history'. That leads me to your suspicion that Vim can't write to your viminfo file, so check your file permissions for ~/.viminfo to ensure you own it and can write to it.

Be sure to read up on the options for what gets written into the viminfo file

  :help 'viminfo'

as well as when & where it gets written:

  :help viminfo-file


-tim
