lastcomm: Display commands executed by a given user.
$ lastcomm --user ${user}
try on your machine
The "lastcomm --user ${user}" command is used to view the recent command-line activities of a specific user. Here's an explanation of each element:
- "lastcomm" is a command in Unix-like systems (e.g., Linux) that displays information about previously executed commands from various sources like process accounting logs.
- "--user" is an option or flag for the "lastcomm" command that specifies that we want to filter the output based on a specific user.
- ${user} is a placeholder that represents the username you want to filter the output for. This should be replaced with the actual username when running the command.
By using this command and replacing ${user} with a username, you can see the list of commands executed by that user, including the time of execution, execution time, and other details depending on your system configuration.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
