Package: bash Version: 3.1dfsg-8 Severity: wishlist I and other users I know find it useful for the bash history to contain pretty much every command I've ever typed. I set:
# remember more history export HISTSIZE=400000 export HISTFILESIZE=400000 in my .bashrc. The number is arbitrary; it could be 100000 or 1000000. I'd default to having it commented out as many users may not want such a voluminous history. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (700, 'testing'), (600, 'experimental'), (600, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.23-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages bash depends on: ii base-files 4.0.1 Debian base system miscellaneous f ii debianutils 2.25.1 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii libc6 2.6.1-1+b1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libncurses5 5.6+20071013-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand bash recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
