       NAME
             lastcomm - (BSD) show the last commands executed, in reverse
             order

       SYNOPSIS
             /usr/ucb/lastcomm [command] . . . [user] . . . [terminal] . . .

       DESCRIPTION
             The lastcomm command gives information on previously executed
             commands.  lastcomm with no arguments displays information
             about all the commands recorded during the current accounting
             file's lifetime.  If called with arguments, lastcomm only
             displays accounting entries with a matching command, user, or
             terminal.

       EXAMPLE
             The command:
                   lastcomm a.out root term/01

             would produce a listing of all the executions of commands
             named a.out, by user root while using the terminal term/01,
             and
                   lastcomm root

             would produce a listing of all the commands executed by user
             root.

             For each process entry, lastcomm displays the following items
             of information:

                   the command name under which the process was called

                   one or more flags indicating special information about
                   the process.  The flags have the following meanings:

                   F     The process performed a fork but not an exec.

                   S     The process ran as a set-user-id program.

                   the name of the user who ran the process

                   the terminal which the user was logged in on at the time
                   (if applicable)

                  the amount of CPU time used by the process (in seconds)

                  the date and time the process exited

      FILES
            /var/adm/pacct      accounting file

      NOTICES
            lastcomm looks for the file /var/adm/pacct, and will fail if
            it does not find it.  Accounting must be turned on, by
            executing /usr/lib/acct/startup, which creates the pacct file.
