DOWNLOAD

BUILD

  • install from the source distribution:

    ./configure && make && make install

INSTALLATION

  • make sure hh is in ${PATH}

  • add

    shopt -s histappend

    export PROMPT_COMMAND="history -a; history -n; ${PROMPT_COMMAND}"

    at the end of .bashrc in order to ensure that BASH history of commands will be kept in sync with filesystem.

  • bind hh to a BASH key by adding a line to .bashrc, e.g. Ctrl-R:

    bind '"\C-r": "\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. To clear the line first, add \C-k \C-u in front of the actual command. Check your current bindings using:

    bind -S
