Yes. The 'viminfo' `:' flag determines how many commands are *saved*
to the viminfo file; the 'history' option determines how many are
*restored* upon startup. There's a bit of asymmetry here, since
'viminfo' defaults to 'history', but not the other way around. The
bottom line, as Jürgen indicates, is that you should set 'history' to
match 'viminfo' if you want to restore all the commands you save.
