Journaling (save commands from interactive session)

[Matthias Munnich]

Hi Chuck,

are you sure this isn't a local GrADS extension at your site?  I  once
implemented
a "his" (or "history") command which does much the same (and more).
I just looked and still found my stuff in gauser.c of the 1.9b4 sources
but nothing about a "log".
command.

... Matt
