Sorry, I don't know an answer to that one.

In Bourne Again Shell, a "history migration" in bash from a "shell1"
to a "shell2" process can be implemented by performing these steps
(in strict chronological order):

  shell1$ history -a # append new lines to .bash_history now
  shell2$ history -n # read lines from .bash_history not already read

Kind regards,
