for real though, modern linux distros will rarely require you to enter a command line, and if you do, a quick internet search can usually help you find out what you need to enter

    My needs are met by those and stuff like tldr, cheat & howdoi, but I am specifically looking for something much more discoverable and inline as I type the command.

    Basically, I want:

    • fzf completions (or any fuzzy searcher w/ previewing)
    • commands and aliases showing description from man beneath
    • file/dir completion showing devicons & file previews
    • flag/option completion while displaying the corresponding help text beneath
    • integration with some of the tools like tldr, cheat, howdoi, navi, etc

      I switched to fish last year, and I haven’t looked back. It feels like so much less of an abomination than zsh or bash, and I’ve barely modified it out of the box. Might be worth a whirl, the completion stuff rocks.

        i used to use fish, but having to translate scripts from POSIX to fish syntax got annoying. great shell otherwise
