Hi,

I recently discovered the very useful copy-earlier-word widget and
noticed that it's not documented in the man page, so people will only
find out about it if they look into the functions/ directory. The
comment at the top of the file should probably be mostly enough for the
documentation.

It's in "man zshcontrib":

copy-earlier-word
     This widget works like a combination of insert-last-word and
     copy-prev-shell-word.  Repeated invocations of the widget retrieve
     earlier words on the relevant history line.  With a numeric
     argument N, insert the Nth word from the history line; N may be
     negative to count from the end of the line.

Huh, I could have sworn I'd checked with zshall, but apparently I only
looked at zshzle. Sorry for the noise.
