Do you\nwant to avoid the need to write **long commands** over and over\nagain? Are you looking for a tool that is able to manage your\n**favorite** commands?\n\nHSTR (**H**i**ST**o**R**y) is a command line utility that brings improved `bash`/`zsh` command completion\nfrom the history. It aims to make completion **easier** and more **efficient** than \u003ckbd\u003eCtrl-r\u003c/kbd\u003e.\n\nHSTR can also **manage** your command history (for instance you can remove\ncommands that are obsolete or contain a piece of sensitive information)\nor **bookmark** your favorite commands.\n\n\u003c!-- Check [video](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPF29NyXe2U) tutorial. --\u003e\n\n## Packages\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\n \u003ca href=\"https://repology.org/project/hstr/versions\"\u003e\n \u003cimg src=\"http",
