Holy Crap. I have gotten into the arrow up mode. Then I went to History.
But, but, but ctrl + r. Holy crap.
Thank you kind sir or madam.
If you enjoy that, then let me introduce you you fzf - a fuzzy finder that has support for replacing ctrl + r in shells with fuzzy matching. Among other uses.

Man I over use it at work - even when sitting in front of a pwsh prompt
You can also install https://github.com/dvorka/hstr to supercharge your ctrl+r
Is there a MacOS versión of this? Asking for a friend.
It's the same, ctrl
+ r
. It is a bash/shell thing so works on any os that uses bash or similar shells. Note, it is not the command key, but ctrl, unlike a lot of other shortcuts on macos.
Finally the ls
command!
Up up up up up up up up up oh wait down
you allllways overshoot
Time to up your game with Ctrl + R reverse search! 🤓
Oh, and Ctrl + Shift + R brings you back in the search, niiiiice.
Thank you kind stranger 👍 ☺️.
Bro, do you even ^R
?

Woah. Quality of meme in this site amazes me.
It's more or less like on reddit, but less users.

Y'all know about ctrl-r to search history, right? I went for so many years without even thinking to look for something better than up-arrow, so I have to mention it.
Wait until they learn that you can ctrl+u
when you mistyped your password in sudo
instead of spamming backspace...
- vim ~/.inputrc
- Paste the following:
"\e[A": history-search-backward "\e[B": history-search-forward
Thank me later
ah there's my password...
Guilty. Even knowing better ways laziness wins. Skyrim console too.
history | grep term
cat .bash_history | grep keyword
But yeah pretty much.
Why not just history | grep keyword
then? Works in any directory.
I usually do ctrl+r but with zsh I can type the beginning of the command and press up and it will search that way too.
fish automatically searches as you type, just start typing and press -> when you find the command you need.
esc + k
for me!
(vi for life)
Since this post triggered hidden gems: ^old^new
will substitute old
with new
from the last command and execute.
Me when configuring a switch.
history | grep {some part of command}
Much more useful for going further back, even without grep.
