how to suppress list number from history command output

Shell Programming and Scripting

i run history command and I want to eliminate the list number.
So far this perl script works as long as the list is a exact 3 character
long.

cat dd | perl -pe 's,\d{3},,'
70 export JAVA_HOME=.
81 export JAVA_HOME=.
82 export JAVA_HOME=`pwd`
export JAVA_HOME=`pwd`
export JAVA_HOME=`pwd`
export JAVA_HOME=jdk1.5.0_15/
export JAVA_HOME=`pwd`/jdk1.5.0_15/
historyhistory | grep export
history | grep export
history | grep export > dd
history | grep export > dd

I have tried, but no good.

perl -pe 's,\d{0,3},,'

How would you simply remove the list number?
It does not have to be with perl as I tried and I thought

history -n

will do, but it returns no output
as opposed to my expectation.

try this one
history | sed 's/[0-9][0-9]*//'
