Kai, Michael,

Thanks for your replies. I understand that disabling history is a feature.

I still like to have it, and had luck by resetting HISTFILE as suggested. Adding an entry to .emacs.d/init_bash.sh did it.

Best regards and thanks for tramp.
Guillaume

Indeed, that's the majority of entries which would go into
.history. People have complained about, and Tramp disables shell history
by default, therefore.

If you want to get the history of your actions after running "M-x
shell", you could reset it in that shell by setting $HISTFILE to a
proper value.

If you run "M-x eshell", no special actions are needed, because eshell
keeps its own history.

Best regards, Michael.
