# Searching for commands with up/down arrow is really handy.  The
# option "moves to end" is useful if you want the cursor at the end
# of the line while cycling through history like it does w/o searching,
# without that option, the cursor will remain at the position it was
# when you used up arrow, which can be useful if you forget the exact
# string you started the search on.

# This key handler shows the entire or filtered history using Out-GridView. The
# typed text is used as the substring pattern for filtering. A selected command
# is inserted to the command line without invoking. Multiple command selection
# is supported, e.g. selected by Ctrl + Click.
# As another example, the module 'F7History' does something similar but uses the
# console GUI instead of Out-GridView. Details about this module can be found at
# PowerShell Gallery: https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/F7History.
