README

        
This package provides a command =completing-history-insert-item= to

insert an item from history using completion. It calls =completing-read=

to do this, meaning it will work with your preferred completion

framework. The package supports: the minibuffer, eshell, comint and

term.

There is also a function =completing-history-setup-keybinding= to setup

a keybinding for you in all supported contexts. By default it binds

=completing-history-insert-item= to =M-r= (usually bound to a command that

gets the previous history item matching a regexp) and unbinds the

companion =M-s= command (usually bound to a command that searches

forward in the history).

To customize the binding of =completing-history-insert-item=, use

=completing-history-binding=. To keep =M-s= from being unbound customize

=completing-history-unbind-M-s=.

* Will this be put on MELPA?

Sorry, there are no plans to put this on MELPA.

If you prefer packages on MELPA, you can use the =consult-history=

command from [[https://github.com/minad/consult][Consult]] instead of the =completing-history-insert-item=

command from this package. By design, Consult does not setup any key

bindings for you. You can get the effect of =(completing-history-setup-keybinding)= by binding =consult-history= to =M-r= and unbinding =M-s= in each of the following keymaps:

 - =minibuffer-local-map=

 - =eshell-hist-mode-map= if you are on Emacs >=27, and =esh-mode-map= for

   Emacs <27. Note that if you are on Emacs <27 and want to bind

   something in =esh-mode-map= you need to do it in the

   =eshell-mode-hook=!

 - =shell-mode-map=

 - =term-mode-map=

 - =term-raw-map=

 - =comint-mode-map=

 - =slime-repl-mode-map=
