From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

zsh-autosuggestion, for those not prepared to switch to fish.

I've used that before, it's really not as good as fish.

Fish is not fully POSIX compliant

Edit-and-execute/fc. If you don't know them, spend an hour to read about them.

I came to the comments to avoid watching the video, learned something amazing about bash instead 😁

What are tha advantages of this over set -o vi?

Setting it up in .inputrc allows more flexibility and configuration. Plus, it's shared by any other app that uses Readline for the prompt.
