And one last thing, related to security - if you type a sensitive
string on the command line and get it into your history, use "history
-d" to delete this line.
There is an easier way around this. Most shells, bash included will
exclude a line from the history if you begin it with a space.
My bash doesn't do this. It includes the line in the history :(
but
HISTSIZE=2000
SHELLOPTS=braceexpand:emacs:hashall:histexpand:history:interactive-comments:monitor
might have an effect on this behaviour.
