Bash History | Your Linux Command History Explained

[@CottonInDerTube]

~ 4:47 ... and thats the point where you should thing: "is it worth it?" Because type somthing wrong and you execute something different and may eff up everything. STRG + r search and completion with TAB is the way to go. Because THAT is not already executing comands.

[@CottonInDerTube]

11:42 Missing STRG + r -- what if you wanna change the found command. Instead of ENTER you press ARROW RIGHT (or left). Why not up or down? because up and down also shows the last|next command from history. Use the least dangerous keys.

This was exactly what I needed to troubleshoot how I broke my networks. 😅😅

[@apolloapostolos5127]

It’s one thing to start a fresh life without worries. However, I want to know what broke. I want to know how it actually works vs how I thought it worked.

Sir how can you configure bash history such that the last 2500 commands used are written to the history file

[@michalroesler]

I want to see more awesome linux contents like this.

[@peterbrown6224]

Out of habit, I use history|tail -10 until you reminded me. Thank you.

How can i change my default terminal window? For example, i like terminator as my terminal but by default xterm opens. Also how can i change my prompt format like the one you are using in this video? Thanks for all your tips and tricks in terminal keep up the great work you do.

Hello Martin, I am relatively new to Linux, but I have some idea about your questions. To change your prompt you will need to edit your PS1 environment variable. You can look that up and you'll see some step by steps on how to format it. Once you figure out how you want it to look, you can add that to your ~/.bashrc file, save it, and then run source on ~/.bashrc so that the change will take effect. Also, I think you can change your default terminal by editing your TERM environment variable.
