当你从命令行执行 history 命令后,通常只会显示已执行命令的序号和命令本身。如果你想要查看命令历史的时间戳,那么可以执行:# export HISTTIMEFORMAT=%F %T# history | more1 2008-08-05 19:02:39 service network restart2 2008-08-05 19:02:39 exit3 2008-08-05 19:02:39 id4 2008-08-05 19:02:39 cat /etc/redhat-release
Ctrl+R 是我经常使用的一个快捷键。此快捷键让你对命令历史进行搜索,对于想要重复执行某个命令的时候非常有用。当找到命令后,通常再按回车键就可以执行该命令。如果想对找到的命令进行调整后再执行,则可以按一下左或右方向键。# [Press Ctrl+R from the command prompt, which will display the reverse-i-search prompt](reverse-i-search)`red‘: cat /etc/redhat-release[Note: Press enter when you see your command, which will execute the command from the history]# cat /etc/redhat-releaseFedora release 9 (Sulphur)
有 4 种方法可以重复执行上一条命令:使用上方向键,并回车执行。按 !! 并回车执行。输入 !-1 并回车执行。按 Ctrl+P 并回车执行。
在下面的例子中,如果你想重复执行第 4 条命令,那么可以执行 !4:# history | more1 service network restart2 exit3 id4 cat /etc/redhat-release# !4cat /etc/redhat-releaseFedora release 9 (Sulphur)
在下面的例子,输入 !ps 并回车,将执行以 ps 打头的命令:# !psps aux | grep yproot 16947 0.0 0.1 36516 1264 ? Sl 13:10 0:00 ypbindroot 17503 0.0 0.0 4124 740 pts/0 S+ 19:19 0:00 grep yp
将下面两行内容追加到 .bash_profile 文件并重新登录 bash shell,命令历史的记录数将变成 450 条:# vi ~/.bash_profileHISTSIZE=450HISTFILESIZE=450
默认情况下,命令历史存储在 ~/.bash_history 文件中。添加下列内容到 .bash_profile 文件并重新登录 bash shell,将使用 .commandline_warrior 来存储命令历史:# vi ~/.bash_profileHISTFILE=/root/.commandline_warrior
在下面的例子中,pwd 命令被连续执行了三次。执行 history 后你会看到三条重复的条目。要剔除这些重复的条目,你可以将 HISTCONTROL 设置为 ignoredups:# pwd# pwd# pwd# history | tail -444 pwd45 pwd46 pwd [Note that there are three pwd commands in history, after executing pwd 3 times as shown above]47 history | tail -4# export HISTCONTROL=ignoredups# pwd# pwd# pwd# history | tail -356 export HISTCONTROL=ignoredups57 pwd [Note that there is only one pwd command in the history, even after executing pwd 3 times as shown above]58 history | tail -4
上例中的 ignoredups 只能剔除连续的重复条目。要清除整个命令历史中的重复条目,可以将 HISTCONTROL 设置成 erasedups:
# export HISTCONTROL=erasedups# pwd# service httpd stop# history | tail -338 pwd39 service httpd stop40 history | tail -3# ls -ltr# service httpd stop# history | tail -635 export HISTCONTROL=erasedups36 pwd37 history | tail -338 ls -ltr39 service httpd stop[Note that the previous service httpd stop after pwd got erased]40 history | tail -6
将 HISTCONTROL 设置为 ignorespace,并在不想被记住的命令前面输入一个空格:# export HISTCONTROL=ignorespace # ls -ltr # pwd # service httpd stop [Note that there is a space at the beginning of service, to ignore this command from history] # history | tail -3 67 ls -ltr 68 pwd 69 history | tail -3使用 -c 选项清除所有的命令历史
# history -c
如果你想禁用 history,可以将 HISTSIZE 设置为 0:# export HISTSIZE=0# history# [Note that history did not display anything]
下面的例子,将忽略 pwd、ls、ls -ltr 等命令:# export HISTIGNORE=”pwd:ls:ls -ltr:”# pwd# ls# ls -ltr# service httpd stop# history | tail -379 export HISTIGNORE=”pwd:ls:ls -ltr:”80 service httpd stop81 history[Note that history did not record pwd, ls and ls -ltr]
