Check the man page for your shell. Usually you just need to set an environment variable. For example from my ksh man page:

Quote:
HISTFILE If this parameter is set when the shell is invoked, its value is the path name of the file that is used to store the command history. The default value is $HOME/.sh_history. If the user has appropriate privileges and no HISTFILE is given, then no history file is used (see Command Re-entry below).

HISTSIZE If this parameter is set when the shell is invoked, the number of previously entered commands accessible to this shell will be greater than or equal to this number. The default is 128.

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 .
