Maybe I've missed something but that thread basically just discussed the
same issue without giving a solution, right?

I understand you concerns about any format changes, that's why my idea
was to allow "lithist" set but ignore it's effect when the history file
is written... wouldn't that work out?


Cheers,
Chris.
