Description

The DB_SAVEHISTORY environment variable / symbol is used to determine whether persistent history will be written to the command.his command history file. If DB_SAVEHISTORY is true, a persistent command history will be written to the command.his file in the current working directory. This command history is not reset or restarted by a new session, but persists across multiple sessions. Previous commands logged to the command.his file can be recalled using the cursor keys at the command line.

If DB_SAVEHISTORY is false, writing and reading of the command.his file is disabled.
