BASH History Suggest Box.
DESCRIPTION
-----------
A command line utility that brings improved BASH command completion
from the history. It aims to make completion easier to use and faster
than Ctrl-R.

INSTALLATION
------------
* bind `hh` to a key and/or add it to $PATH
* bind `hh` to a BASH key by adding a line to your `.bashrc`, e.g. Ctrl-R:
`bind '"\C-r": "\C-k\C-uhh\C-j"'`
or F12:
`bind '"\e[24~":"\C-k\C-uhh\C-j"'`
or Ctrl-F12:
`bind '"\e[24;5~":"\C-k\C-uhh\C-j"'`
To determine the character sequence emitted by a pressed key in terminal,
type CTRL-v and then press the key. For example, F12 gives `^[[24~`.
Replace the `^[` with `\e`. To clear the line first, add `\C-k \C-u` in front of
the actual command. Check your current bindings using:
`bind -S`
