MATLAB Command History: how to save back up of existing history

According to this link:

How to save contents of MATLAB's command windows to in a file?

I can back up my commends going forward using diary which is great:

However I would also like to back up my existing command history, I assume the command history is stored in a text file somewhere correct? If so can I just copy this?

Have a look at the "Save Entire Command History" submission, which will let you save all your command history, not just the last 20k allowed by MATLAB.

Type prefdir on Matlab and it will give you a folder.

Your command history is in that folder, in a file called history.m.
