if you are using Bash shell, history of your commands will be in $HOME/.bash_history, remove the contents of the file, but it will contain only the history of previous session. to remove the history of current session command is "history -c".

Appraently this is not the best solution since everytime you will need to delete the contents. There is an variable that you can set to set history to 0 but if you just need to delete history everythime you logout just add the cat thing in .bash_logout if not there create it.

If u're using BASH (Mostly u'll be) , then u can open .bash_history in any of ur fav. editor and edit those commands ..
For resetting the history I'd use
$ cat > .bash_profile Ctrl+d
This file will be in ur login directory, better known as Home directory ..
Plz. suggest me some solution....
HTH,

hi i assume that you are talking about the bash shell (command prompt) well in that case all your previous commands are stored in a file in your home directory called .bash_profile you can either delete it (to remove history) or edit with any text editor(to remove selected items)
