to pull an all-nighter, stay awake all night
1792, William Buchan, Colonel Don Antonio de Alcedo (translator), Medicina doméstica: ó tratado completo del método de precaver y curar las enfermedades con el régimen y medicinas simples, Ramon Ruiz’s press, page 86:
La naturaleza ha destinado la noche como la estacion mas propia de sueño, y nada hay mas perjudicial que trasnochar.
Nature has designated the night as the most proper period for sleep, and there is nothing more harmful than staying awake all night.
