what problems have you run into with history in your shell? so far I have these, what am I missing?
- screwing up a command & getting that stuck in the history.
- history getting truncated (would love more details about why this happened to you! was it HISTSIZE? something else?)
- can't access history from other open terminals
- accidentally putting (or not putting!) a space at the beginning of a command
(please only problems related to history, and let me know which shell you're using!)
