Hi James!

Is size really an issue? I've been running CK for quite a time and the history
file has *only* grown to 5 Mb.
Do you have any numbers/experiences where the history file has grown large?

It seems to me, that rotating the history file on a weekly basis somehow defeats
the purpose of e.g. ck-history --frequent.

If at all, I'd at least rotate the file on a monthly basis.

What do you say?
