In the new '.bashrc' (in base-file-3.9) there is:
# export HISTIGNORE="[ \t]*:&:[fb]g:exit"
# export HISTIGNORE="[ \t]*:&:[fb]g:exit:ls"
and I have adopted the first,
[1]
export HISTIGNORE="[ \t]*:&:[fb]g:exit"
In my previous '.bashrc' I had
[2]
export HISTIGNORE="[ ]*:&:[fb]g:exit"
With the choice [1], command like
tar -cavf foo.tar.bz2 foo.txt
are ignored from history. Is this to be expected? What exactly does it
mean '[ \t]'?
Thanks,
Angelo.
