This is the biggest change: > http://fishshell.com/release_notes.html > When tab-completing a file, fish will first attempt prefix matches (foo matches foobar), then substring matches (ooba matches foobar), and lastly subsequence matches (fbr matches foobar). For example, in a directory with files foo1.txt, foo2.txt, foo3.txt…, you can type only the numeric part and hit tab to fill in the rest. This is really brillia…

I am looking for something that lets me type the first few letters and when I press the arrow-up key then (maybe in combination with another key), it will only offer those items from the history, which match my previous input. Something like: Type: > ssh press arrow-up: > ssh larry@google.com press arrow-up: > ssh mark@facebook.com

I tried fish for a while but found it jarring switching between it and bash when working on remote machines where fish is not installed. I was also surprised when I first started using fish that it can't synchronize history between shell instances, which is a killer feature for me. So after about a month with fish I've switched to zsh. https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/825 http://ptspts.blogspot.com/201…
