   If you run a lot of homemade scripts (or even aliases), then the list unfortunately doesn’t mean as much (assuming you are just interested in proper *NIX commands.)

   Here are mine, though:

   389 vi
   283 cd
   45 ls
   41 vrefs
   15 grep
   15 make
   14 sync
   13 uptime
   10 df
   9 less
   9 gen_banrules.sh
   9 banip
   8 finger
   7 tail
   7 man
   7 date
   6 rm
   6 pwd
   6 mysqldiff

   Also, a small change to the script (to sort reverse numeric):

   history|awk ‘{print $2}’|awk ‘BEGIN {FS=”|”} {print $1}’|sort|uniq -c|sort +0 -1 -rn | less

   Cheers.

   Change the last sort call to: sort +0 -1 -rn

   $ history|awk ‘{print $3.17 ($2)}’|awk ‘BEGIN {FS=”|”} {print $1.58 ($1)}’|sort|uniq -c|sort -r
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('
   Am I doing something wrong?

   Ketsugi,
   take the <code&gt out of the statement.
