stinkpot: sqlite-backed shell history
I wonder how easy it would be to delete commands from one's history? Would it be diving into some sql to delete a row from the sqlite db? Odd as it might seem there are rare times, when I need to delete lines of commands from my shell history...The legacy approach lets me manually go into my bash history and manually delete the offending line...I know, i know, that's silly...but it is indeed a use-case for me.

I wonder how easy it would be to delete commands from one's history? Would it be diving into some sql to delete a row from the sqlite db? Odd as it might seem there are rare times, when I need to delete lines of commands from my shell history...The legacy approach lets me manually go into my bash history and manually delete the offending line...I know, i know, that's silly...but it is indeed a use-case for me. Has anyone who uses stinkpot know if there is a command do remove lines without divjng into sqlite DB manually? EDIT: Sorry, i failed to state, that regardless of my odd use-case, the project seems really quite interesting! Thanks for making this and for sharing!
