My newest favourite History command uses grep and is great for finding a command that you have a faint memory of.
history | grep "keyword"
just use ctrl - r Does the same thing. :)
True! I included the ctrl + r shortcut in my second post about the Linux terminal (which will be published next Monday)
I love that approach! Btw, the grep command is one of the many that I decided to add in another post because this one was already too big 😂
Great stuff, look forward to reading your next mammoth post 😁
For most situations, I would prefer searching through the history with CTRL+r (you might consider adding that one), but yes sometimes you want to see the full list.
CTRL+r
OK, that's pretty awesome! Thanks for that.
