In Zsh it would be... bindkey '\e[A' history-beginning-search-backward bindkey '\e[B' history-beginning-search-forward and in Bash... "\e[A": history-search-backward "\e[B": history-search-forward Put these in your .zshrc or .inputrc.

auto complete history
Hi All, In a previous installation of Cygwin, I had 'history auto complete' in so far as I could type a letter, press the up key and the prompt would cycle through the most recent entries in history whose first letter matches the letter I typed. On my newest install, this feature isn't present. Can anyone please let me know how to put it in place? Thanks!
