This is inbuilt in fish-shell, which I highly recommend.
(I understand the functionality is inbuilt in readline, what I mean is fish exposes it in this manner by default)
- flohofwoe 7y agoIMHO fish's history + autocompletion is even better because it keeps per-directory histories. You get the most likely match in the filesystem location you currently are while typing, and then can search for other matches on the fly with the arrow keys. There's a plugin for zsh which implements the same behaviour (this is what I'm using now): https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions
- farisjarrah 7y agoZsh autosuggestions are not quite the same as the built in fish autocompletion. Fish's autocompletion has much nicer functionality.
- flohofwoe 7y agoHmm, I've used fish for years before switching to zsh with this plugin, and I can't find any difference (although I might not have discovered every feature of fish). The 'front-end' behaviour of showing a greyed-out suggestion while typing with per-directory context, and flipping through options with arrow up/down behaves exactly the same.
