If you ran the following from bash:

✈dcl:~$ xhost + localhost
localhost being added to access control list
✈dcl:~$ ssh -X user at ip.address

There should be a file in your dcl home directory, called 
.bash_history . Each command you type at the bash prompt 
will be saved to that file, including any command line 
options.
