@robertstrom You probably copy-pasted the script wrong. There's an extra '
at the end of line 15.
Worked perfectly! Thanks!
Thanks bigplum & gimpf,
sort ~/.bash_history | uniq | awk '{print ": :0:;"$0}' >> ~/.zsh_history
just what I needed on a VM without ruby installed
Thanks for the script
Awesome work! Thank you!
clean, simple and fast - thx
Personally I found awk and PERL to be to heavy weight :) So I went for
cat ~/.bash_history | cut -d' ' -f1- | sort | uniq | xargs -I % echo ": $(date +%s):0;" % >> ~/.zsh_history

This worked like a charm on OSX Catalina from bash to zsh.
Script is working for me. Ubuntu 20.20. History moved. Thank you!
Guys ;)
cp ~/.bash_history ~/.zsh_history
works
Probably zsh wrote some import from just cmdlines in history
Since I didn't see trusty old sed
, here's one I made with my friend sed
cat ~/.bash_history | uniq | sed "s/^/\: $(date +%s)\:0;/" >> ~/.zsh_history

Works a treat. Cheers.
Thanks a lot brother.
