Right. The name can be as short as one character. Instead of adding []
inside the string I think it's better to mention that separately. So
now I have:
Add the String {item} to the history {history} which can be
one of: *hist-names*
"cmd" or ":" command line history
"search" or "/" search pattern history
"expr" or "=" typed expression history
"input" or "@" input line history
"debug" or ">" debug command history
The {history} string does not need to be the whole name, one
character is sufficient.
