Of course, that also has the effect of the shell importing the shared history from other shells, so it's nice to have things like up/down arrow set to only browse local history (while things like search look in the shared history). There was a fairly recent discussion of up-line-or-local-history() functions and a discussion of making everything local except for isearch functions. ..wayne..
