That is strange. The sh shell (system scripting shell and
emergency dialog shell in SUM) does not have a history function.

	% sh
	$ h
	h: not found
	$ history
	history: not found
	$ _



> In the csh or tcsh shells history works as well as h.

This is correct. A system-wide alias is defined for those shells:

	alias	h	'history 25'

It can be found in /etc/csh.cshrc.

The sh shell (Bourne-like shell, actually a derivate of ash) does
not have this functionality. Bash, the Bourne-again shell, supports
the "history" function internally, and a "h" alias can be defined
for this shell.

	% bash
	$ history
	[...]
	  501  history
	$ _



> Considering that all three shells seem to have the same .cshrc file?

They don't. The csh and tcsh (system default dialog shell) use the
cshrc mechanism (/etc/csh.cshrc for global settings, .cshrc for user
settings, and .login and .logout for interactive shells), while sh
uses /etc/profile and .profile and .shrc similarly. Bash uses .profile
as well as .bash_profile and .bash_login in a comparable manner.
