ctrl + r gang

[-] Doolbs@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago

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.

[-] nous@programming.dev 9 points 2 years ago

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.

You can also install https://github.com/dvorka/hstr to supercharge your ctrl+r

[-] Skuldugery@feddit.de 4 points 2 years ago

I can recommend fzf since it also supports searching the current directory

Is there a MacOS versión of this? Asking for a friend.

[-] nous@programming.dev 7 points 2 years ago

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.

[-] kentaromiura@feddit.it 2 points 2 years ago

Finally the ls command!

[-] Linssiili@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 years ago

Fish gang arise (no need for ctrl+r, just press up)

[-] RomanRoy@lemmy.world 41 points 2 years ago

Ctrl R > start typing

You're welcome to have your life changed

Woah. Quality of meme in this site amazes me.

[-] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago

It's more or less like on reddit, but less users.

[-] raspberry_confetti@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 years ago

*fewer

[-] unstable_confusion@lemmy.fmhy.ml 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

It's more or fewer like on Reddit, but with less users.

[-] CthulhuDreamer@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Or history | grep {command}

[-] atx_aquarian@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

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.

[-] amanwithausername@vlemmy.net 5 points 2 years ago

Wait until they learn that you can ctrl+u when you mistyped your password in sudo instead of spamming backspace...

Guilty. Even knowing better ways laziness wins. Skyrim console too.

[-] CriticalMiss@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago
  1. vim ~/.inputrc
  2. Paste the following:

"\e[A": history-search-backward "\e[B": history-search-forward

Thank me later

And the command is something like ls -l 👍

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.

Ctrl+R together with fzf makes this obsolete

esc + k for me! (vi for life)

[-] knobbysideup@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

Since this post triggered hidden gems: ^old^new will substitute old with new from the last command and execute.

Me when configuring a switch.

[-] voidf1sh@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Fish finally broke me of this habit, and now it's one of the first things I install on any system

  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
