Allthough I'm not familiar with the particular problem you described, I observed that the history sometimes (!) does not survive a reboot. It may have to do with a situation where more than one shell is running. Idea: The last shell closed (even forced) saves its history, so the history of the other shells gets lost. I've set those globally in /etc/csh.cshrc: set history = 100 set savehist = 100 Sometimes, history survives, sometimes it doesn't. Very strange... -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
