I typically have over a dozen shell windows open at a time. They would all
happily clobber the same history file, which somewhat limits its use for

Using a different $HISTFILE for each shell avoids that.  I assign
consistent names to shell windows, under tmux, and I construct $HISTFILE
from the name.
