How can I write an alias or a script in bash that simply appends the last command to a file?

Asked by tate1615 in Bourne-Again Shell (bash), Shell Scripting

I often type out long commands that I don't want to repeat. If I get a juicy command that works--I generally use echo to send it to a file. Is there an alias or script that I could write in bash that could streamline this process?
Maybe a script that takes the filename as a parameter and essentially
echo !! >> filename

So that I could just do:
$ sweet_command -killer options
$ scriptname filename
And the command would shoot over to the file?Start Free Trial
