I'm not sure what's going on, as I've never had an issue like this in my
years of using FreeBSD nor Linux. Each time I login, my history file is
empty! I'm not sure what could be causing this, but below [1] is my

commands I enter in a login session are forgotten in the next session. Using
the Up and Down arrow keys navigates a mangled and incomlete command

Glancing at man sh cured me of that notion.

Any command executed in one of them should be

What can I do to get the history to remain in memory across a
