Thank you for the write-up and easy to install commands, I have installed this on all my linux machines and each time it's cut-and-dry copy-and-paste commands, thank you!

I find fzf-tab to be better than zsh-autocomplete. You can't use both as it collides.

refer to this gist if you wanna use fzf for autocomplete

no tedious web search and works instantly, thank you

Nice, but it's slowing down the system, and I'm not sure why. There's a lag when I enter commands in the terminal. By the way, thanks for accommodating this in one gist.

I have created a script to automate this process, check here

Again ! It has never been so uncomplicated. Congratulations to you, n1snt

great!!

This is just amazing!!

When I go to my previous command by pressing the up arrow key, a semicolon is added to the end of the line. Does anyone know why this happens, or how to disable it?

+1 for the semicolon ; being appended when using the up arrow key.

Thanks!
