Some hacky but extremely convenient functions for making life inside term-mode easier. All of them make use of two things: first, the excellent 'ivy-read' API and second, the fact that you can send raw control characters representing C-k, C-u, etc to your terminal using 'term-send-raw-string'.
This works in both ansi-term and multi-term and whatever other derived mode you use -- all that's needed is access to 'term-send-raw'.
A simple utility that completing-reads your ~/.bash_history (or whatever other file you want, really) and sends the selected candidate to the terminal. To get going, bind 'counsel-term-history to some nice stroke in your term-mode-map, C-r comes quite naturally to mind.
Make sure to include the following in your .bashrc to grep current session's history as well:
shopt -s histappend
PROMPT_COMMAND="history -a;$PROMPT_COMMAND"
Recursively find a directory, starting at $PWD, and cd to it.
counsel-term-ff -- Find file with completion in current dir. If it's a directory, cd to it and call counsel-term-ff again. If not, open it using find-file. The recursion is really badly implemented ATM using elisp sleep which results in a flickering minibuffer. Advice appreciated :)
Todo fixme etc. Check out group 'counsel-term' to see what's customizable at present. More options probably coming at some point.
This package has no association with counsel or ivy apart from using the ivy api and kinda feeling lika a counsel package. The author admits to a slightly fanboy-ism towards their creator however -- support him on Patreon! More instructions on his site, oremacs.com.
