What now? What is r? How does this work?
CTRL+R brings up a prompt and allows you to search through commands you’ve run before. If you’ve run different variations of the command hitting CTRL+R or CTRL+SHIFT+R cycles through commands similar to what you’ve typed out.
I'm new to linux and i've been using $history | grep . This information is very useful, thank you.
Sure thing! There’s lots of ways to do the same things, but either way stops you from hitting the up key a bajillion times
