Excerpt from man less:

       LESSHISTFILE
              Name  of  the  history  file used to remember search commands and
              shell commands between invocations of less.  If  set  to  "-",  a
              history  file  is  not  used.  The default is "$HOME/.lesshst" on
              Unix systems, "$HOME/_lesshst" on DOS  and  Windows  systems,  or
              "$HOME/lesshst.ini" or "$INIT/lesshst.ini" on OS/2 systems.
