Have you noticed if a command in bash is preceded by a space, it does not go into the history?
for example type the following:
ls
pwd
ps (Note the ps is preceded by a space)
time
Now when hitting the up arrow after entering the you don't get "ps" but pwd. ps is skipped I guess because of the preceding space.
Probably old news, which is why I am passing it on to you first.

Edmond,
Not sure of you intended to post this to the entire PLUG list, or
just e-mail to a single person, but...
Yeah, space keeps it out of the history. For more info, see:
man bash
and search for HISTCONTROL, HISTIGNORE, etc.
