fzf-fish-integration VS dotfiles

I do find the history pager stuff interesting, but ultimately not of tremendous use for me. I rebound all my history search stuff to use fzf[1] (via a fish plugin for such[2]), and so haven't been aware of the issues

I like https://github.com/PatrickF1/fzf.fish

Can also do cool stuff like search for a file to open in $EDITOR and searching git log

There is new pull request with new function for fzf.fish, that enables fzf-tab completion.

It may be worth checking the fzf plugin you're using with Fish. There is a more recent+maintained effort[0] that brings an even more delightful feature set, particularly with Ctrl+R/_fzf_search_history

I missed the shell integration when switching to Fish a couple of years ago. fzf.fish saved the day, I wouldn't be without the keybindings now (Ctrl+Alt+F is roughly the equivalent of `*`)

I am the creator of fzf.fish plugin. I'm currently looking for ways to improve the plugin, especially for ideas to simplify it and make it more accessible for everyone, not just power users.

Shameless plug for https://github.com/PatrickF1/fzf.fish, which definitely covers searching your history and has plenty of other usages the commandline command, mentioned above.

For commands with many arguments that are in the history, history search is absolutely better than auto-suggest, yes. But I'd also recommend fzf + fzf.fish in that case, for turbo-charged history (and other) searches.

I put a some time and effort in it, but i've been greatly influenced by the excellent PatrickF1/fzf.fish: Augment your fish command line with fzf key bindings. (github.com) plugin, with its great configuration management (using a dedicated function).

I ended up implementing the 1% of features I use most myself and using a plugins for navigating and managing lists of checkboxes. I've used this setup for a few years now and can't imagine life without it.

I use tmuxp for this with my projects set up like this and I use a script to open the ones I'm currently working on in a single tmux session.

Exactly the same as me. I even use fzf to search for and open my tmuxinator projects.

I tried vimwiki for a while but I found I used a tiny subset of its functionality and couldn't get it to respect my choice of syntax highlighting for markdown. It set me off in the right direction though.

The fact that it's _just_ a directory full of markdown files allowed me to easily migrate to my own home-grown setup that reimplements the three keybindings I actually used.

Everything is configured with tmuxp and I can set the whole thing up with a single command.

It's ideal for dotfiles. Here are mine

> I can rebuild my configuration(Aside from some fussy embedded toolchains) in half an hour or so. VS code, a few different linters, swissknife, stack tabs, timestamper, indenticator, pylance.... done.

I can clone my dotfiles repo[0], run a single command that installs all my dependencies[1], another that links my config and I'm done. That gives me a fully-configured neovim with all my plugins (thanks vim-plug) within 2 minutes.
