Data How to create .sh_history file


Thanks PxT answered my "compare two files"question very quick and neat!!:-)

I have a question about .history file I couldn't find any satisfied answer from book.

1. This file was created automatically when you set up user's environment or you have to use a command to create it or you have to "touch" it?

2. If the user doesn't have this file before,can I find out his "history" from somewhere or can I view his "history" by using root previlige? If yes, from which file I can find his history command?

Thanks in advance!

NAME
minchistory - prints history information for minc files SYNOPSIS
minchistory [options] <file1.mnc> [<file2.mnc> ... ] minchistory will dump the internal history of one or more MINC files DESCRIPTION
minchistory is a perl script that prints the history information in a collection of MINC files. Most MINC files contain an internal "audit trail" that lists the commands used to create the MINC file. This tool provides a convenient way to examine this information. For each file, minchistory prints a title line followed by a series of lines which list the history information for that file. --- History of <filename> --- [01] Wed Oct 13 15:35:35 EST 2004>>>> dicom3_to_minc .
