## Introduction
Binds `Ctrl-R` to a widget that searches for multiple keywords in `AND` fashion.
In other words, you can enter multiple words, and history entries that match
all of them will be found. The entries are syntax highlighted.

## News
* 11-10-2016
- Syntax highlighting of history  adapted, fine crafted, **small** part of [zsh-syntax-highlighting](https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting)
to color what `hsmw` shows:

* 20-09-2016
- Keys Page Up and Page Down work and page-wise move along history. Also, `Ctrl-P`, `Ctrl-N`
move to previous and next entries
* 19-09-2016
- Better immunity to [zsh-autosuggestions](https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions)
and [zsh-syntax-highlighting](https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting) home,
end, left and right cursor keys now work smoothly
* 25-05-2016
- Cooperation with
[zsh-autosuggestions](https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions)
plugin
- Configuration option to set page size, example use:
```zsh
zstyle ":history-search-multi-word" page-size "5"
```
## Installation
**The plugin is "standalone"**, which means that only sourcing it is needed. So to
install, unpack `history-search-multi-word` somewhere and add
```zsh
source {where-hsmw-is}/history-search-multi-word.plugin.zsh
```
to `zshrc`.
If using a plugin manager, then `Zplugin` is recommended, but you can use any
other too, and also install with `Oh My Zsh` (by copying directory to
`~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins`).
### [Zplugin](https://github.com/psprint/zplugin)
Add `zplugin load psprint/history-search-multi-word` to your `.zshrc` file.
Zplugin will handle cloning the plugin for you automatically the next time you
start zsh.
### Antigen
Add `antigen bundle psprint/history-search-multi-word` to your `.zshrc` file.
Antigen will handle cloning the plugin for you automatically the next time you
start zsh. You can also add the plugin to a running zsh with `antigen bundle
psprint/history-search-multi-word` for testing before adding it to your
`.zshrc`.
### Oh-My-Zsh
1. `cd ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins`
2. `git clone git@github.com:psprint/history-search-multi-word.git`
3. Add `history-search-multi-word` to your plugin list
### Zgen
Add `zgen load psprint/history-search-multi-word` to your .zshrc file in the same
place you're doing your other `zgen load` calls in.
## Customizing
### Zstyles
```zsh
zstyle ":history-search-multi-word" page-size "8" # Number of entries to show, default is LINES/3
zstyle ":history-search-multi-word" highlight-color "fg=yellow,bold" # Color in which to highlight matched, searched text
zstyle ":plugin:history-search-multi-word" synhl "yes" # Whether to perform syntax highlighting
```
### Syntax highlighting
Syntax highlighting is customized via `HSMW_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES` associative array.
It has keys like `reserved-word`, `alias`, `command`, `path`, which are assigned
with strings like `fg=blue,bold`, to configure how given elements are to be
colored. If you assign this array before loading `hsmw` you will change the defaults. Complete list
of available keys is [at the beginning](https://github.com/psprint/history-search-multi-word/blob/master/hsmw-highlight#L34-L62)
of `hsmw-highlight` file. Example `~/.zshrc` addition that sets `path` key
paths that exist will be highlighted with background magenta, foreground white, bold:
```zsh
typeset -gA HSMW_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES
HSMW_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES[path]="bg=magenta,fg=white,bold"
```
Following code will enable coloring of options of form "-o" and "--option", with cyan:
```zsh
typeset -gA HSMW_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES
HSMW_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES[single-hyphen-option]="fg=cyan"
HSMW_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES[double-hyphen-option]="fg=cyan"
```
