I rely on .bash_history alot to remind me what command syntax to use - I don't scroll back thro the history with the up button, I just grep the .bash_history file for the command I want to run.

This used to work until recently when I found that the .bash_history had been transformed into a data file, instead of the ASCII text that I was used to.

I don't know what caused this. But I deleted the file and carried on. For a while the .bash_history file returned as ASCII text, but now it's happened again.

What am I doing wrong?


Thanks
Adam
