Temporarily binding the up arrow in the shell to echo "Use Ctrl-R" is probably the quickest way to un-/re-learn

ive just done this, thanks for the suggestion:

"Use Ctrl-R for fuzzy history, or Ctrl-P/Ctrl-N for history entries"

(I have those bound to bindkey '^P' up-history and bindkey '^N' down-history instead of up and down arrow's "up-line-or-history" which is really annoying with multiline commands)

I’ve done this, nowadays asking Claude to rebind things so that I’m forced to learn. It comes with interesting side effects!

I learned to type `ls` properly the first time, every time, shortly after installing `sl`.
