that would not count as pretty nice tool for manipulating arrays
for i in history; echo $i; end | grep foo
is not really useful.
i'd have to do something like this:
set found (for i in $history;
echo $i;
end | grep -n foo | awk -F: '{ print $1 }')
to get the matching indices, which would be necessary to manipulate the
history. that seems rather awkward...
