In guake I can type ls UP-ARROW and it will show ls /home/blah for example. In terminator using up arrow after typing ls just brings me to the command I entered prior. Is there any way to enable this in terminator / what is this functionality called? I use zsh by the way.

If you use bash, you can add the following to your ~/.inputrc

"\e[A": history-search-backward
"\e[B": history-search-forward

If you use zsh, you can add the following to your ~/.zshrc

bindkey "^[[A" history-search-backward
bindkey "^[[B" history-search-forward

  • I actually use zsh but this is exactly what I meant.

  • @jett I think you want bindkey “^[[A" history-search-backward and bindkey "^[[B" history-search-forward then

  • @jett in your ~/.zshrc? Sorry, didn't list that earlier; zsh doesn't care about ~/.inputrc.

  • yes at the bottom of my zshrc. It doesn't have any noticeable affect.
