[Per-Directory-History][6] |
|
========================= |
|
|
|
Per directory history for zsh, as well as global history, and the |
|
ability to toggle between them with ^G. |
|
|
|
This is a implementation of per directory history for zsh, some |
|
implementations of which exist in bash[1][],[2][]. It also implements |
|
a per-directory-history-toggle-history function to change from using the |
|
directory history to using the global history. In both cases the history is |
|
always saved to both the global history and the directory history, so the |
|
toggle state will not effect the saved histories. Being able to switch |
|
between global and directory histories on the fly is a novel feature as far |
|
as I am aware. |
|
|
|
This is a standalone repository for the script, however it is also included in |
|
[oh-my-zsh][4] as a plugin. |

|
Usage |
|
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
|
1. Load this script into your interactive ZSH session: |
|
|
|
% source zsh-per-directory-history.zsh |
|
|
|
2. The default mode if per directory history, interact with your history as normal. |
|
|
|
3. Press ^G (the Control and G keys simultaneously) to toggle between local |
|
and global histories. |

The idea/inspiration for a per directory history is from [Stewart MacArthur][1] |
|
and [Dieter][2], the implementation idea is from [Bart Schaefer][3]. The |
|
implementation is by [Jim Hester][5] in September 2012. |
