Many years ago, before I discovered fish, I tried the loved by many zsh shell, but found myself spending too much time messing with the configs to get it how i wanted. On my quest to find something better and avoid coding my own, I discovered fish. fish is easily one of my all time favorite linux cheats to increase productivity, without spending hours tweaking configs. It is very usable out of the box, and includes a web-ui mode to make easy basic customization stuff like theme and PS1 var. Finding/re-using command history is a breeze, you can history -c curl # Return history that contains (-c) the word 'curl' It's one of the first pieces of software I install to new Linux desktops. I still prefer to keep my servers bare, thus I use the default bash shell there.
