Hey @sivaswami, that's a new one. Are you just installing McFly for the first time?

[sivaswami]

yes. for first time.

[cantino]

could you try deleting the ~/.mcfly directoy and see if it happens again?

• • • rm -rf ~/.mcfly ; source mcfly.bash McFly: Importing Bash history for the first time.

Thank you @sivaswami. I suspect there's something in your existing history file that's causing an import error. I wish I knew what it was. I suspect that if you move .bash_history to a new name temporarily, then remove ~/.mcfly, it will work.

[sivaswami]

I use timestamp with my history. is this could be a problem? content of history file looks like this:

#1529475153 ls #1529475159 cd test

my settings in bashrc : export HISTIGNORE='&:ssh*:*bin/se:. bin/se:*history:mutt:[bf]g:exit:pwd: hostname:*cd ..:bash:zsh:*echo:cs:h:pushd:popd' export HISTTIMEFORMAT='%F %T '

[sivaswami]

does mcfly handles HISTTIMEFORMAT and other History related env parameter settings ? some more options include: export HISTTIMEFORMAT=”%a %h %d – %r ” export HISTTIMEFORMAT=”%A %B %d – %r ”

[sivaswami]

in some env, I also change $HISTFILE to point to different file.

[cantino]

Ah! We do support timestamps, but currently only in the default epoch format. I suspect if you unset HISTTIMEFORMAT it'd work.

[sivaswami]

It works now after deleting the bash_history file. You are creating a new screen itself. is there any way, we can do half-screen alone just like fzf ? What are the intelligence I get from mcfly ? any inputs or documentation link ? Just to understand as beginner.

[cantino]

Hey @sivaswami, glad it's working! The current UI is full screen. If you'd want to work on a half-screen view, you'd be welcome to. I find the current experience meets my needs well.

[Tatsh]

If there are 'bad lines' in ~/.bash_history/etc, can they be ignored?

[cantino]

They should be, @Tatsh. What are you seeing?

[Tatsh]

I had a different error that was caused by using su without a new login shell (su -). This caused an issue with a temporary file mcfly writes to, because environment variables were inherited.
