astralarya / history Goto Github PK

My home dir is share across all my servers. So they can all see .bash_all_history and all load the same .bash_profile. But only only server actually records the history, and even then it seems like its only partially recording. I've also tried loading in .bashrc. These are all centos6 servers.

It also doesnt seem to be logging everything.

First off, I love your plugin. However when I try to run the h! command to select from history it causes my shell to crash immediately. I went into the source and changed the function name from h! to hs and it works fine. when I try type h! it shows the correct function. Any idea why this might be or how I could debug it?

On my machine, the bash_all_history file is being written as expected.
However, when I try to lookup history with h, it fails to parse the lines in bash_all_history file correctly and returns an empty screen.

On debugging, I found that this happens because of the extra '\x00' that's appended at the end of the line. If I remove it, the parsing works as expected.

I'm sure there's a good reason for having it, but I can't figure it out.

It might be useful to add a comment for why it is needed (and make the parsing work with it) or remove the '\x00' altogether. I have a patch for removing it that I'll associate with this issue shortly.
