Zero because if you don't know about that are you even a Linux user?
Also
```bash
cat ~/.bash_history | grep -i "string"
```
different Q
how do u increase scroll buffer in SCREEN session ?
#linuxstr
i know of it, just annoying i always am accidentally pressing it and mashing escape to stop it
That's me. I rarely access shell history myself though, or bash for that matter. I use fish shell with autocomplete and dialing arrow up, arrow down. All I need, almost every time.
what is special that i cannot get "history" ?
