Fabian11306yNitpicking: That can only happen in the Linux console, but that guy has a shirt for the Windows console.

@Fabian You can do it in cmd, but the history doesn't persist if you close it. Though in the Linux terminal I just do
cat ~/.bash_history | grep [something I recall using in the command]
Though there's probably a more efficient way to do it. -
Fabian11306y@GreatGrogrodor I usually just use `history` and scroll, then hit up a bunch of times because f*ck using the mouse to select text.

Zsh autocompletion is great. But I also do the cat ~/.bash_history | grep trick for really old commands.

Fabian11306y@iamavalos It's so much easier!
