Tristram Oaten d1640a399d Update README.mkd My rational for this is: 1. Most linux desktop users are using some kind of debian/ubuntu/mint, so why not have them catered for primarily? 2. the bash instructions work for everyone who has bash. Last time I checked, that was 99% of the linux community.		10 years ago

zsh-autosuggestions

Fish-like fast/unobtrusive autosuggestions for zsh.

Installation

    $ git clone git://github.com/tarruda/zsh-autosuggestions ~/.zsh-autosuggestions
    $ bash ~/.zsh-autosuggestions/install

If you do not have bash, please run it with sh :

sh ~/.zsh-autosuggestions/install

Any widget that moves the cursor to the right(forward-word, forward-char...) will accept parts of the suggested text. For example, vi-mode users can do this:

# Accept suggestions without leaving insert mode
bindkey '^f' vi-forward-word
# or
bindkey '^f' vi-forward-blank-word

Emacs-mode users can simply use alt+f which is bound to forward-word

The zsh-history-substring-search plugin is also recommended.

Configuration

You may override default global config variables after plugin load.

AUTOSUGGESTION_HIGHLIGHT_COLOR: suggestion highlight color, default is 'fg=8'.
AUTOSUGGESTION_HIGHLIGHT_CURSOR: highlight word after cursor or not. Must be integer value 1 or 0, default is 1.

Known Issues

COMPLETION_WAITING_DOTS: setting this to true is known to cause problems when attempting to autocomplete with TAB
