Set a huge number for your shell history and dedup. You’ll effectively save every command you ever typed in chronological order. You can even append comments to the end of the command for your future self.
Then, fzf your history.
- michaelcampbell 3y agoI do, and use fzf, and that helps, but with most tools I'm a bit OCD about understanding what I'm doing. I also use Anki SRS flashcards and put a lot of tool usage exemplars in there; it not only helps me remember a bit of what I need to do, but if nothing else I remember THAT I put it there so I can use that to go look it up again. And this is coming from someone who grew up with and is comfortable with `--help` screens and man pages.
