minus-square@naught@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink0•11 months agoI use zsh and love the fish autocomplete so I use this: https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions Also have fzf for ctrl + r to fuzzy find previous commands. I believe it comes with oh-my-zsh, just has to be enabled in plugins and itjustworks™
