hope im posting in the right community imI'm trying to get my terminal  (macOS) to print the previous commands that iv'eI've used, as well as the timestamps to go with them.

I know that if I use 'history man'history man, it will give me a list of the past 1000 or so, and if I use 'history -E'history -E, it will give commands with timestamps though only about 20 or so anyway.

Is there any way to concatenate them, so I get the time stampstimestamps for all appreciate any help.?
