Description Tom Tromey 2018-09-15 18:55:42 UTC 
Sometimes I'd like to be able to write out some of my
command-line history as a gdb script.
Maybe a "save history" command with parameters to control which
elements are saved.
Comment 1 Tom Tromey 2023-01-24 00:41:04 UTC 
Working on a patch.
Comment 2 Hannes Domani 2024-01-10 16:43:09 UTC 
Maybe a dup of PR15328?
Comment 3 Tom Tromey 2024-01-11 17:14:56 UTC 
I sent a patch for "save history" but not any of the other stuff.
So I tend to think this could remain separate.

    Add "save history" command
    
    PR cli/23664 points out that it would sometimes be convenient to
    immediately save the current history to a file.  This patch implements
    this feature.
