Description Dirk Mueller 2005-12-01 08:45:49 UTC 
Hi, 

there was a Google summer of code project from Fedora that implemented global command line history (e.g. independently from how many console windows are open). It would be nice to include this patch in suse, as it sounds very useful.
Comment 1 Dr. Werner Fink 2005-12-01 09:57:49 UTC 
Hmmmm ... please provide the URl.
Btw: Hopefully this patch does not destroy the history of a running
     bash, e.g. intermix the history of two bash sessions.

Comment 4 Dr. Werner Fink 2006-01-10 12:33:17 UTC 
gchistory.patch is buggy because it fources readline files
to include a bash header file (unwind_prot.h).
