Supplementary info, from a bash-related man page:
Quote:
histappend
If set, the history list is appended to the history file when the shell exits,
rather than overwriting the history file.
shopt -s histappend
To append every line to history individually set:
PROMPT_COMMAND='history -a'
With these two settings, a new shell will get the history lines from all previous
shells instead of the default 'last window closed'>history
(the history file is named by the value of the HISTFILE variable)

FWIW:
Code :
