BaSH does not lock the file, but it read it into the memory  and  append
new things there if you now leave the bash, it is  writen  back  to  the
bash_history file.

If you realy war parallel writes from bash, you have to write a function
and put it into your .bash_login which WRITE  out  the  bash_history  in
intervals and APPEND the contents.

Please read "man bash" hot to do  this.  The  appropriated  command  are
availlable...

and of course, the function has to be executed at BaSH startup  and  put
into the bachground WITHOUT DISOWNing the process.

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening
