Good point.  On my system it is


bash (gnome's default?)
----
  1000  ls
  1001  ls
  1002  ls
  1003  history

(note how history appears as the final entry)


ksh (Korn)
----------
1       ls
2       ls
3       ls

(history doesn't appear, but it shows in the following use of history)

1       ls
2       ls
3       ls
4       history


ash
---
$ history
history: permission denied


csh/tcsh
--------
      1  17:49   ls
      2  17:49   ls
      3  17:49   ls
      4  17:49   history
