And it should place a highlight on the first of possibly many altertatives and let me launch it by pressing enter.
For example, I should be able to launch google-chrome by simply typing goo<Enter>, even though there is google-earth further down the list. Also, I should be able to move selection using arrows. It is very annoying to have to switch from keyboard to mose interaction just to launch an app. The readline functionality was there just recently; where did it go? I think the history should be a simple hash, rather that a list, and it should be unlimited. I can't remember a single day during the entire history of bash (or tcsh) history when I needed to know the order of my commands. I only needed to recall and edit them. So I don't think it will be good to link it to bash history, as it is. Order is not important. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/794835 Title: Wishlist: Alt-F2 integration with Bash/readline/.bash_history To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/794835/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
