Fwd: screen - bash history

[Jürgen Weigert]

To also give a screen-related answer: You can enable logging in screen. This gives you a complete transcript file for each session in a separate file.

That should help also to diagnose what happened right before a screen sesison was killed, and such.

(But when there was no logging, and shell history got lost, you have very little chance of diagnosing a crash that already happened. - Maybe some sudo or ssh commands leave traces in the syslog, but most commands don't )
