Enhanced history searching in zsh

This week’s TechMail is Enhanced history searching in zsh because I seem to always be doing the same thing over and over again and it’s good to save keystrokes. =) I imagine other people are in the same boat as well, so there you go… something simple yet useful.

Using vi key bindings in bash and zsh

Been busy redoing my office this week and was busy with Mandriva release stuff last week so I forgot to put up the new TechMails. Last week’s techmail was Using vi key bindings in bash and zsh, which looks at using, you guessed it, vi keybindings instead of the default emacs-style bindings. Personally, I like the vi keybindings better but I’ve been so used to the emacs style ones that I often mess myself up. =) I suppose on all the systems where I have shell access I’m going to have to start setting them all to the vi keybindings to force myself to get more used to it.
