✅ How can I display all the terminal commands I have executed in the current terminal window?
Ways to Display Executed Terminal Commands
1️⃣ Use history Command (Shows Full Command History)
history
• This displays all previously executed commands in the current session.
2️⃣ Use fc -l (Alternative to history)
fc -l
• Similar to history, but often includes more details.
3️⃣ Enable Real-Time Command Logging (set -o history)
If you want to see commands as they are typed:
set -o history
• This ensures that commands are saved in history.
4️⃣ Show Only Current Session Commands
If you only want to see commands from the current terminal session, use:
history | tail -n 20 # Show the last 20 commands
5️⃣ Use script to Log Everything (Best for Debugging)
script session.log
• This records all commands and outputs into session.log.
• To stop recording, type:
exit
