And if I delete the home version another doesn't pop up on its own. BTW, the root version of .bash_history is chockful of retrospective goodness :). Also, each home console session preserves a record somewhere; the up arrow can access those. Even if I logout in and out they're still there. It's just when rebooting the unit they disappear. Where are they kept, I wonder. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
