Hyper: Feature Request: GUI for command history

[aleclarson]

It would be nice to view a list of my command history (and easily scroll then click a command to reuse it).

Just use the up and down keys to cycle through the history. 😊

@leo Yup, I know that's there.

At the minimum, Hyperterm should expose a GUI for copying a command
(from the history) using a specific index.

A key binding that brings up a text input (to type in the history index) would work.
Or maybe something akin to skipping lines in vim.

Not a fan of hitting the "up" key like a maniac whenever looking for a
command further back in the history. 😛

What do you think?

@aleclarson I highly reccommend checking out https://github.com/junegunn/fzf. It's a command line fuzzy finder.

With it, you can hit Ctrl-R from your terminal and get a fuzzy search window of all your previously issued commands :ok_hand:

You can also set up things like a vimf command that will launch the fuzzy finder for opening a file in vim.

@flybayer Thanks for the help! 👍 Do you know if it would work in something like the NodeJS repl?

I would recommend peco

@aleclarson I doubt it works with the node REPL out of the box, but it could probably be configured to work with it.
