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
me.

Of course I have a more complex setup that uses an own history file
per "window"; I use for example a name like ".sh_history_pts_57"
(using 'HISTFILE').

I have yet more functions associated, e.g. a "CWD" or a window title
per "window", etc., to be able to keep and restore yet more context.
