I've definitely noticed the history command is "touchy" and it's tough to get out what you're looking for. You're correct about the rtag operation though -- I have a script that assembles builds for me and rtags the module (the exact module I queried). I didn't realize it wasn't a normal tag until I took a look at my script. I don't use history much, I guess this explains why :) -- Glen Starrett
