# zsh-autosuggestions
> [Fish](http://fishshell.com/)-like fast/unobtrusive autosuggestions for zsh.
## Installation
```
$ git clone git://github.com/tarruda/zsh-autosuggestions ~/.zsh-autosuggestions
$ bash ~/.zsh-autosuggestions/install
```
If you do not have bash, please run it with sh :
`
sh ~/.zsh-autosuggestions/install
`
Any widget that moves the cursor to the right(forward-word, forward-char...)
will accept parts of the suggested text. For example, vi-mode users can do
this:
```sh
# Accept suggestions without leaving insert mode
bindkey '^f' vi-forward-word
# or
bindkey '^f' vi-forward-blank-word
```
Emacs-mode users can simply use alt+f which is bound to forward-word
The [zsh-history-substring-search](https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-history-substring-search)
plugin is also recommended.
## Configuration
You may override default global config variables after plugin load.
- `AUTOSUGGESTION_HIGHLIGHT_COLOR`: suggestion highlight color, default is `'fg=8'`.
- `AUTOSUGGESTION_HIGHLIGHT_CURSOR`: highlight word after cursor or not. Must be integer value `1` or `0`, default is `1`.
- `AUTOSUGGESTION_ACCEPT_RIGHT_ARROW`: complete entire suggestion with right arrow. Must be integer value `1` or `0`, default is `0` (right arrow completes one letter at a time).
## Known Issues
- `COMPLETION_WAITING_DOTS`: setting this to `true` is known to cause problems when attempting to autocomplete with <kbd>TAB</kbd>
