Subject: [Buildroot] Shell history w/ ASH spans multiple ash instances

I thought I'd try this list first since:
1. Busybox is an integral part of buildroot
2. buildroot's default config for busybox is in effect and if it's just
a config thing, then it's good to know what's up.
To follow up briefly: In looking at the source in libbb it appears
disabling CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING_SAVEHISTORY will stop libbb from
writing to ~/.ash_history
Older versions I've used had SAVEHISTORY enabled but didn't dynamically
load it from various instances of interactive shells causing thr
cross-shell history sharing -- perhaps this is a new "feature". I don't
need the history saved and loaded constantly or on shell exit so I'll
try turning that off.
Sorry for using the wrong list -- but at least you can see my reasoning
for starting w/ the buildroot list.
If anything further is needed w/ this topic, I'll move over to the
busybox list.
Thanks,
-Eric Malkowski
