If you are using Licq on multiple machines, and found yourself looking for something important in history logs, only to find that at that time you were sitting at the other computer, you have come to the right place. This little perl script can merge one history file to another, merge the whole history directory to corresponding files in target directory, and it can do it mutually to synchronize both files or directories.
Requirements
- Perl installed.
- History files from the distant computer accessible locally (distant home directory mounted, or copy of history files at the local computer).
Known issues
- Names of history log files differ across different versions of Licq, so if the file is copied to another directory, it might not be named as the rest of log files. For example, you can have names in the form
12345678.Licq.history
and new file can be named87654321.history
. - You'd better backup your histories :-)
Download
Feel free to rename the file to licq-hm
after downloading and uzipping.
