Ctrl-R in bash?

• ComputerGuru 14y ago
  No, substring searches. Ctrl+R in bash (by default, at least) will not search from the middle of a command. For instance, if the previous command was "hello", searching for "ello" will not bring it up. Whereas with zsh, it will.

    The default bash on OS X (3.2.48(1)-release) just did when I tried it.

      Ctrl+R definitely works that way with bash, but I think he may be referencing tab completion: > ell<TAB> Completing external command git-shell xdmshell xkbbell Completing shell function _ispell
