`HISTory`

List command history

HISTory

Shortest form: hist.

List the shell’s command history, at most <count> entries (default 999), each indented by three spaces. Read-only.

Lines typed at the drivshell> prompt are not recorded, so on a SONiC switch the list is empty and history prints nothing. In bcmsh, use the arrow keys instead: the local client keeps its own history, which this command does not see.

drivshell> history 20

Built-in help

Parameters: [count]
    Displays the command history.
    If count is given, output is limited to at most count lines.
