Ctrl-P: Print History

Prints the last 100 lines of the command history to the default printer.

History lines will be saved as a .TXT file, and then printed using the default handler. Two environment variables are available to customize this action:

Variable NameDefaultDescription
PrintHistoryMaxLines100The maximum number of lines to print.
PrintHistoryFlags0Set to 1 to print line numbers.

History lines are numbered starting with the oldest as #1. If there are more than 100 history lines (or PrintHistoryMaxLines) in memory, then the first line printed will be greater than 1.


•  Note:  Exactly how your system prints a .TXT file depends on your file associations. To troubleshoot, you can create a text file on your desktop; then right-click on it and choose Print to see what the system does.

Ctrl-P is the default hotkey for this action, but you can change it with EDITKEYS /K22:key.
