hi,

quite often i want to search for multiple terms in the history when those terms
are not in a sequence.

currently typing
foo bar<up-arrow>

will search for exactly "foo bar",
but i'd also like to see any results that contain "foo" and "bar" with other
stuff in between.

maybe exact matches first, then matches with "foo" and "bar" in order followed
by matches with them in any order.

btw, i saw someone suggesting to search based on the directory, that's a nice
idea too, moreover, i am occasionally browsing the history to reconstruct what
i did in a certain directory.

occasionally i am then coming across commands where i wonder in which directory
i was running them. so if the history could be augmented with the working
directory of each entry, even if it doesn't get used in search, just having
that information would be of great help.

greetings, martin.
