Hi, just had an idea: I'd consider it really useful while searching
backwards through the shell history to see the time when this command
was actually run. I've got EXTENDED_HISTORY set, of course. :-)
Unfortunately I am clueless on how to implement this feature.
Maybe some kind of function bound to ctrl-r ?
Any help is appreciated!
Have a nice weekend!
Andy.

zle-isearch-update() { zle -M "$(history -i $HISTNO $HISTNO)"; }
zle-isearch-exit() { zle -M ''; }
zle -N zle-isearch-update
zle -N zle-isearch-exit
Bit annoying, I was hoping for something more complicated. Can probably
be enhanced.

For long commands (i.e. which take several physical lines), some lines
are not cleared when typing ^U (kill-whole-line).

Very cool, thanks!
I trimmed it down to date+time like so:
zle-isearch-update() { zle -M "$(history -i $HISTNO $HISTNO | awk '{ print $2,$3 }')"; }
Then, I tried to put it to the right side of the screen (like RPROMPT)
but failed. Probably not a good idea anyway because most of the time
there won't be enough space.
Thanks again!
Andy.
