	The main approach I will use will be to store the previous commands in alinked list.  My only problem is that I do not know how to intercept the commandonce it has been entered, before it gets executed.  Likewise, I do ont know how to execute the command once I have retreived it form the list. i.e. I want to   display the command for possible editting and execute it when the carriage
return is pressed.
Thank You.			Mark

If your version of un*x supports the command script, you may extract the
history from the script output file.  script is a terminal session
recorder.
