-## Command History
+### Command History
 
 I like having access to terminal history even after I close the terminal and reopen it later. So I wrote a function to do that. It uses PSReadLine plugin to query the history file and return the last 100 lines. I have this function aliased to `hist`.

 I use this function to find the path of an executable. It is nifty for finding the location of things like terraform or bicep. I have this aliased to `which`.
