To use the last argument of the last ran command, use the Alt+. keys.

Sounds like a poor-man’s !$ to me!

Am I blind or is ctrl+R not in that document?

smeg ,

I think you are blind (or maybe your version of the website is being truncated?)

urquell ,

Yep, found it :)

I'm using hstr since some years and it works perfect for me. https://github.com/dvorka/hstr

If you have fzf installed, it is easy to integrate it with your bash history. In my .bashrc, I have:


<span style="font-style:italic;color:#969896;"># Introduce fzf-driven functionality as described here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/fzf.
</span><span style="color:#62a35c;">source</span><span style="color:#323232;"> /usr/share/fzf/key-bindings.bash
</span><span style="color:#62a35c;">source</span><span style="color:#323232;"> /usr/share/fzf/completion.bash
</span>

Also, you may be interested in zoxide, which keeps track of paths you have navigated to. Also from my .bashrc:


<span style="font-style:italic;color:#969896;"># Enable an autojump-like 'j' command. Use 'ji M' to select paths starting with M using fzf.
</span><span style="font-style:italic;color:#969896;"># This needs to always come last.
</span><span style="color:#62a35c;">eval </span><span style="color:#183691;">"$(</span><span style="color:#323232;">zoxide</span><span style="color:#183691;"> init</span><span style="color:#323232;"> --cmd</span><span style="color:#183691;"> j bash)"
</span>

I just started using both recently and it’s great. For the fzf file search, there’s even some extension that can show a preview pane of text files and even images!

New to Linux as my daily driver. This is life changing. I was up/down arrowing like a madman!

Shout out to the very fine Atuin.sh. Give it a try, you won’t regret it.

Yep, I don’t like these “recommended” methods, too. Fortunately, you can just use your favourite package manager instead: docs.atuin.sh/guide/installation/-installa…

I’ve been using McFly to do my history searching. It’s pretty good. I recommend changing the default sort from rank to time though

kionite231 ,

I wonder what “neural networks” they are using in it and how is it improving the accuracy

xlash123 ,
@xlash123@sh.itjust.works avatar

No idea. I personally didn’t like it. I felt the time based sorting was more accurate for me

mlfh ,

Ctrl+r was a life-changer when I first learned it.

I think it’s the only shell shortcut I know haha

You can install fzf to make it fancier.
