No maintained cheat sheet here either. I do use `history | grep` quite a lot though. One thing I try to do is to keep my keyboard shortcuts consistent between programs/systems.

Another thing I try to do when a project has a set of complex commands that are needed, is to add them as a rule in it…

I use Ctrl+R chronically for the same thing.

Try using flashcards (Anki) to remember shortcuts if you haven't yet. Just like with learning a foreign language, it's a quick way to get "action -> shortcut" mappings into your brain permanently for recall at any time, rather than relying on a cheatsheet.

For bash, this is my cheatsheet (can be viewed from within bash): https://github.com/darekkay/config-files/blob/master/bash/.c...

I also maintain cheatsheets for some dev stuff: https://github.com/darekkay/config-files/tree/master/cheat-s...

And then there's my Flexbox cheatsheet: https://darekkay.com/flexbox-cheatsheet/

I'm curious why history | grep and not ctrl-R?
