come across this little gem, yet.
Is there any relevance to wanting to delete the history? Prying eyes should have an account that does not include Terminal

I'm thinking something like '.bashhistory'

From the Unix/Linux world, the history is in a simple .text file of similar name in the home directory of the user. To remove this history is easy.

It's got to be somewhere

It appears to be .history or .tcsh_history

"If you set the savehist shell variable (by simply typing set savehist), the shell will save its history list to the file ~/.history when you log out. The next time you log in, this file is read and the list is placed into the new shell's history list. If savehist is not given an argument, the entire list is saved to ~/.history; if you give it a value (which should be less than the value of $history), it will save that many of the most recent commands."

cat ~/.tcsh_history

Is "something like bashhistory" not close enough for us to find the answer?

that he mentioned .bashhistory in his first post and that you did not follow up on it
