Setting up GNU readline history #1999

how does one enable automatic history retention on ysh start? i would guess some sort of default .config/ysh folder that has a history file or something? how would you recommend implementing? same question for osh too i suppose, though its compatible with shell so i think i saw issues for using mcfly and stuff.

Does this help?

mkdir -p ~/.local/share/oils

Yeah that is a bit hidden here
