god I fucking love Linux (not a Linux thing) but I still fucking love Linux
I mean that's what it's there for
I thought command line users like typing things. I avoid typing where possible, and dont use the command line on Linux.
You know the one command I hate? CTL vs CTRL. There is no damned consistency I can see. Is it systemctl reboot or systemctrl reboot?
Your readline config sucks because the default sucks.
Add this to your .inputrc:
"\e[A": history-search-backward
"\e[B": history-search-forward
bash users… zsh is much better
How?
type part of the command, then press up and it’ll complete it from your history….
also i suggest Oh-My-Zsh for nice colors in the terminal
the first time you do it you’ll get angry at all the time wasted in bash… also with oh my zsh it’ll show you what branch you’re in in a git repository… it’s great.
Thanks! I have zsh on some of my machines, and installed zpresto on some but never got the advantages... probably due to bash muscle memory.
You also can get the git branch in bash, and a bunch of other $PS1 customizations are also possible (Tmux, ssh, time, background processes, etc).
I'll try the up completion later :)
yeah you can do anything in bash….
zsh is really just an extension of bash, imo…
but the completion alone makes it worth it for me.
also colors in the terminal
i just do a command close to what i want but slightly wrong just so i can do thefuck
Hint: :q!
