Ok. Tried it. But It won't show the Current session for example.
=(
Edit.
Ok, at least I'm making some progress.
If I type
Quote:
date | awk -F " " '{print $1 " " $2 " " $3}'
It will give me today's date. and will have the exact values as today's dates in
Quote:
last | awk -F " " '{print $4 " " $5 " " $6}'
How then, Do I compare both Results and print only the ones that cross out?

SYNOPSIS
bashbug [--help] [--version] [bug-report-email-addresses]

sending it. By default the bug report is mailed to both the GNU developers and the Debian Bash maintainers. The recipients can be changed
by giving a comma separated list of bug-report-email-addresses.
If you invoke bashbug by accident, just quit your editor. You will always be asked for confirmation before a bug report is sent.
OPTIONS
--help
Show a brief usage message and exit.
--version
