Is there a windows shell tool can keep history? [closed]

Question

I use windows 7 64bit. I found both cmd.exe and powershell cannot keep history. It means it lost my command history when I quit the shell.

Is there a tools can help cmd.exe or powershell to remember the history? I try to use console 2. Console 2 is tiny and has a tab interface. But console 2 can't remember the history too. Maybe there is another front end can do this.

The answer below is from Keith Hill (PowerShell Microsoft MVP) in his answer to the question powershell history: how do you prevent duplicate commands:

BTW if you want to automatically save this on exit you can do this on 2.0 like so:

Register-EngineEvent PowerShell.Exiting {
    Get-History -Count 32767 | Group CommandLine | 
    Foreach {$_.Group[0]} | Export-CliXml "$home\pshist.xml" } -SupportEvent

Then to restore upon load all you need is:

Import-CliXml "$home\pshist.xml" | Add-History
