That will search anywhere in previous commands, so for example typing "s" followed by ^R would show matches for "ls". If instead you want to search for commands with the same start (so just typing "s" would only show commands that started with "s"), you want history-search-backward, which is bound to PageUp on Fedora (not bound by default upstream IIRC). -- Chris Adams <linux@xxxxxxxxxxx> -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
