Tell me about why Bash's > issues. Well, personally I am quite conformtable with Fish history search as my shell's default behavior. I do not find it troublesome at all - except a while ago when my Fish history file got corrupted. On the other hand, I could also live with Bash's C-r and C-s, especially now that I understand that C-s is turned off by default in some distributions. So, I guess I should request the "history search feature" seperately, in order to keep the request managable. > Also, is bug-grub a mailing-list, so that we should > subscribe or ask to be cc'ed on responses? Yes, [email protected] is a - large - mailing list. I will subscrbe and I could forward any responses to you if you like.
