Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Find Commands Run on Specific Date Post 302892188 by mrm5102 on Tuesday 11th of March 2014 10:54:09 AM

Hey Guys, thanks for the replies...
Yea I guess its a feature of my Bash Version 4.2.42(1) Shell.

If you look at my .bash_history file you can see every other line has a UNIX timestamp and in between are the actual
commands. So I guess the history command then converts the timestamp to a normal date formatted string and outputs like:
Code:
1. 2014-03-11  10:30  ps -ef | grep foobar

Thanks Again,
Matt
