prezto/modules/history-substring-search

History Substring Search

Integrates zsh-history-substring-search into Prezto, which implements the Fish shell's history search feature, where the user can type in any part of a previously entered command and press up and down to cycle through matching commands.

If this module is used in conjunction with the syntax-highlighting module, this module must be loaded after the syntax-highlighting module.

Additionally, if this module is used in conjunction with the autosuggestions module, this module must be loaded before the autosuggestions module.

To elaborate, the relative order of loading the modules would be syntax-highlighting, history-substring-search and autosuggestions.

Contributors

New features and bug fixes should be submitted to the zsh-history-substring-search project according to its rules and regulations. This module will be synchronized against it.
