bat-extras VS zsh-autosuggestions

So it seems that clone3 is the syscall that creates new threads. Let's use man (better if you use batman) to find about it.

If you like bat, you may find these useful: https://github.com/eth-p/bat-extras#batman

for man pager I found and absolutely love batman (from the amazing bat extras by eth-p

Idea: Look into adding color to it. After discovering batman I've become used to syntax highlighted man pages.

Next, there is bat and one of its add-ons: batman which provides git diff support, syntax highlighting and vim-style navigation on top of the base command of cat and man.

zsh can compile zsh scripts using the builtin zcompile into wordcode. This will have the effect of having faster parsing. The way we use this to get a faster prompt is to explicitly ask zsh to compile certain chunky plugins(think your syntax highlighters and completion plugins) into wordcode.

git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-syntax-highlighting git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-autosuggestions

This is not intuitive, or efficient, so our first task is fix that using zsh-autosuggestions. zsh-autosuggestions will provide autocomplete suggestions from your history (and other locations) as you type, simply press the right arrow key, or use the end-of-line keyboard shortcut (e.g. ctrl+e) to accept the suggestion. If you only want part of a suggestion, you can use the forward-word keyboard shortcut, which is option+right arrow or alt+right arrow which will complete only up to the end of the next word and continue providing suggestions from there.

I'm using the zsh-autosuggestion plugin (so not a feature of the terminal but of the shell):

https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions

git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions.git $ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins/zsh-autosuggestions

Do you like typing? I guess not. We can have some autosuggestion inside our terminal by using a plugin named zsh-autosuggestions.

git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions.git $ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins/zsh-autosuggestions && git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting.git $ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins/zsh-syntax-highlighting && git clone https://github.com/zdharma-continuum/fast-syntax-highlighting.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-$HOME/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/fast-syntax-highlighting && git clone --depth 1 -- https://github.com/marlonrichert/zsh-autocomplete.git $ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins/zsh-autocomplete

If you are not using oh-my-zsh, you are missing out on some amazing plugins. One feature most people wish the terminal had is autocompletion. With the zsh-autosuggestions plugin, your terminal will autocomplete most commands and remember previous ones.

brew install fzf # for fuzzy find files, commands, etc brew install starship $(brew --prefix)/opt/fzf/install git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-syntax-highlighting # syntax highlight for zsh git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-autosuggestions # smart autosuggestions for zsh echo 'eval "$(starship init zsh)"' >> ~/.zshrc

The big thing for me was the intuitive auto-completion which I hadn't seen anywhere else at the time, but this is now also available in zsh via this plugin:
