But I dont want to type out:

tail -f /var/logs/thisProgram/thisFolder/logs/logsFromToday.log

Who's got time for that when I know I used that not so long ago.... 10 minutes later 🤦‍♂️fuck it, I'll type it myself.

For me it's mostly about reproducibility when smashing that arrow up key: calling consistent commands for various versions of a script when testing

I said it before. And I will say it again:
history | grep [whatever]

@C0D4 And then you inadvertently find the one with the typo in it and it doesn't work

I love zsh for that. You type the first few letters and arrowing up only shows you commands that start with that.

Basically reverse-search on sterioids.

control-R search is much more efficient than typing long sensitive commands.
