savehistory               package:base               R Documentation

Load or Save or Display the Commands History

Description:

     Load or save or display the commands history.

Usage:

     loadhistory(file = ".Rhistory")
     savehistory(file = ".Rhistory")
     history(max.show = 25, reverse = FALSE)

Arguments:

    file: The name of the file in which to save the history, or from
          which to load it. The path is relative to the current working
          directory.

max.show: The maximum number of lines to show. `Inf' will give all of
          the currently available history.

 reverse: logical. If true, the lines are shown in reverse order. Note:
          this is not useful when there are continuation lines.

Details:

     This works under the `readline' and GNOME interfaces, but not if
     `readline' is not available.

Note:

     If you want to save the history (almost) every session, you can
     put a call to `savehistory()' in `.Last'.
