Display timestamp information in command history
Answer:
When using the history command, it only shows the command number and the command itself. But sometimes it is useful to know when this command was executed, i.e. the timestamp. To do so, following the instructions below:
# export HISTTIMEFORMAT='%F %T '
Then type history again
# history
..
260 2010-12-23 19:22:07 ls
261 2010-12-23 19:22:07 pwd
...
That's all.
