Nice script.  Have a look at these guys on your box though, if you are
using KDE and I think Gnome too.

~/.recently-used.xbel     <--- eye opener
~/.recently-used
~/.thumbnails/normal/*
~/.thumbnails/large/*


Holly crap. That is very interesting. Not something that I really wanted to see.

I found you can set ~/.bash_history to be an empty ro file and inside a
session the history still works, for xterm-type things anyway.

I guess there are more files to deal with for privacy and security. Time to encrypt some of these by default. RFE time.
