Hi,

I am running 4.3.17 and have EXTENDED_HISTORY set. The time duration for
each and every command in my shell history is always zero. I issue some
compilation commands that take nearly 20 minutes to run.

What is the durantion time of EXTENDED_HISTORY supposed to measure exactly?

Kind regards,
-- 
Francisco

Duration is not recorded when both INC_APPEND_HISTORY and SHARE_HISTORY
are set, because the command is written out when it starts so it can be
seen by other shells (rather than after it finishes) -- hence elapsed
time is not known.

I thought this was mentioned in either the docs or the FAQ, but I can't
find the reference just now.
