I know why "date" and "time" are in there, but I suspect it's not common for most folks.

Well...

.. on my work machine. I suspect I more lines of history (10,000) than you... Also, I have ignoredups on, so that may affect the stats.

xisandexit is actually an alias for 'startx & exit' that I type every day uppon login :P
Hooray for navel gazing! =)

It says a lot about my workflow :-)
Here is my list:
96 ls 58 cd 55 vim 50 rm 34 touch 19 git 17 sudo 17 perl 15 perldoc 14 curlFun! I can't help but notice that most of you are not actually running perl all that much :)
dqd is an alias for psql.
@Jurgen: actually, I almost exclusively run Perl directly from vim, so it would almost be surprising to see it in my list :)
There's an emacs joke somewhere in there, I think. But modesty forbids ...
lis an alias tols -l.This is, however, not at all representative of my actual history. At any time I have a bunch of long-running gnome-terminal tabs open, and each of those have their own history. So the output depends on which terminal I ran the pipeline in.
Also,
emacsdidn't show up in the list as I have it running all the time and hardly ever close and restart it. If I did that, it would easily be at the top of the list.
