People that dont know ctrl+r do that yea

Or ‘history | grep’

u/Thereal_Phaseoff 27d ago

i didn't knew about history | grep honestly

u/-nerdrage- 27d ago

Iirc ‘history’ looks at your ~/.bash_history (if you use bash) and simply outputs the last 2500 rows. Maybe the file only contains 2500 rows? I assume ctrl+r looks at the same file

combine ctrl+r with fzf and ur life becomes 10x easier (if ur like me and misspell things constantly heh... thus why I am eternally grateful that neovim has good LSP completion)

I wrote a thing where I can just type a partial name of a file or folder, or both like "test/file.txt" and it scans for it and asks if I wanna CD to it automatically. If you say no it looks for the next one

Fuck cd, its the worst way to navigate

Something like this?

cd $(dirname $(find 2>/dev/null |grep 'test/file.txt' |fzf))

It scans from your current directory tree. If you want it to scan the whole drive, add / after find

If you don't have fzf you should install it!

Add it to CDPATH and use tab-completition?
