For example, % find . -name '*mat' -print & then do something like % %1 > /dev/null 2.) why is it that when I do history -f, I get dates and times that refer to the latest login and not to the date and time of command execution in the history. For example, 105 10/21/1995 09:44 cd News <--- this command was run 10/20 not 10/21 106 10/21/1995 09:44 mail -f z <-- this is correct
