Completion of words on the screen as in VIM (Bash or Tmux)
How can I configure Bash, Zsh or Tmux to complete the last matching identifier on the screen? Consider this common scenario:
zsh
Script failing with “command not found: ^M”
When I try to run the following script in zsh, via the command /bin/zsh ~/.set_color_scheme.sh I get the following error:
overwrite and reuse existing function in zsh
I would like to slightly extend a zsh completion function.
Export Command History into a Shell Script
Often I have complicated installation procedures to follow,
like having to build dependencies for buildtools, to build dependencies for the application I wish to install from source.
How can I configure zsh to let it explain to me where I can retrieve an executable instead of saying file not found?
In the default configuration of bash in ubuntu, when you type the
name of a software which is not installed, bash explains how to install it if
the executable if it exists, or how to install an executable with a really close name if it does not exist.
For example with emacs (which is not installed on my machine):
How can I create a function in zsh that calls an existing command with the same name?
How can I write a function in zsh that invokes an existing command with the same name as the function itself? For example, I’ve tried this to illustrate my question:
Rebuild auto-complete index (or whatever it’s called) and binaries in $PATH cache in zsh
After installing new software, an already opened terminal with zsh won’t know about the new commands and cannot generate auto-complete for those. Apparently opening a new terminal fix the problem, but can the index (or whatever you call it) be rebuilt so that auto-complete will work on the old terminal?
Passing named arguments to shell scripts
Is there any easy way to pass (receive) named parameters to a shell script?
Unix-portable way to get script’s absolute path in zsh?
What is a portable1 way for a (zsh) script to determine its absolute path?
How to make zsh completion show the first guess on the same line (like fish’s)?
In Fish when you start typing, autocompletion automatically shows the first autocompleted guess on the line itself.
