echo "$HISTFILE"
printf "Bash history file - %s\n" $HISTFILE

## Delete the bash history entry at offset OFFSET ##
history -d offset
history -d number
history -d 1013

## Set the  maximum  number of lines contained in the history file ##
HISTFILESIZE=5000000
 
## Set the number of commands to remember in the command history ##
HISTSIZE=10000
 
## Append it ##
shopt -s histappend

# Controlling how commands are saved on the history file ##
# ignoreboth means:                       ##
# a) Command which begin with a space character are not saved in the history list               ##
# b) Command matching the previous history entry  to  not  be  saved (avoid duplicate commands) ##

history: history [-c] [-d offset] [n] or history -anrw [filename] or history -ps arg [arg...]
    Display or manipulate the history list.
 
    Display the history list with line numbers, prefixing each modified
    entry with a '*'.  An argument of N lists only the last N entries.
 
    Options:
      -c	clear the history list by deleting all of the entries
      -d offset	delete the history entry at offset OFFSET.
 
      -a	append history lines from this session to the history file
      -n	read all history lines not already read from the history file
      -r	read the history file and append the contents to the history
    	list
      -w	write the current history to the history file
    	and append them to the history list
 
      -p	perform history expansion on each ARG and display the result
    	without storing it in the history list
      -s	append the ARGs to the history list as a single entry
 
    If FILENAME is given, it is used as the history file.  Otherwise,
    if $HISTFILE has a value, that is used, else ~/.bash_history.
 
    If the $HISTTIMEFORMAT variable is set and not null, its value is used
    as a format string for strftime(3) to print the time stamp associated
    with each displayed history entry.  No time stamps are printed otherwise.
 
    Exit Status:
    Returns success unless an invalid option is given or an error occurs.
