prezto/modules/autosuggestions

Autosuggestions

Integrates zsh-autosuggestions into Prezto, which implements the Fish shell's autosuggestions feature, where the user can type in any part of a previously entered command and Zsh suggests commands as you type based on history and completions.

If this module is used in conjunction with the syntax-highlighting module, this module must be loaded after the syntax-highlighting module.

If this module is used in conjunction with the history-substring-search module, this module must be loaded after the history-substring-search module.

To elaborate, the relative order of loading the modules would be autosuggestions, syntax-highlighting and history-substring-search.

Contributors

New features and bug fixes should be submitted to the zsh-autosuggestions project according to its rules and regulations. This module will be synchronized against it.

Settings

Highlighting

If colors are enabled, autosuggestions will automatically highlight positive results.

To enable highlighting for this module only, add the following line to ${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zpreztorc:

zstyle ':prezto:module:autosuggestions' color 'yes'

To set the query found color, add the following line to ${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zpreztorc:

zstyle ':prezto:module:autosuggestions:color' found ''

Troubleshooting

Autosuggestions from previous sessions don't show up

For autosuggestions from previous shell sessions to work, please make sure you also have the history module enabled.
