Description

This returns a variant array of the nominated number of most recent commands (in the command history window).

You can get all available commands by requesting a count of zero. (You can get the most recently saved command by requesting a count of 1).

If you request more than the available number, then the number of items in the array may be less than that requested.

You can get the current command (not yet in the command history list) by using world.GetCommand.

Note: Available in version 3.18 onwards.
VBscript example 
dim commandList
dim iCount

'
' Get last 10 commands
'
  commandList = world.GetCommandList (10)

  If Not IsEmpty (commandList) Then
    For Each command In commandList  
      world.Note command 
    Next
  End If
