> To keep your bash history from being recorded during a session, one can
> issue the command  'unset HISTFILE' before exiting.

> HOWEVER, when one has MULTIPLE terminal windows opened up, only that last
> one to close seems to save its HISTFILE information into the bash history.
>
> Is there a way to force a write to the bash history as one exits each
shell
> so that the entire history of all bash sessions are recorded?   Could this
> be automated in the logout/logoff process?
