yes! I'm on a mac though, so I had to change the modifier to control and keycode to other key. but finally it works, thank you!👍

been there. done that. i use a mac too during the evenings and weekends. keybindings are sometimes hard to get recognized. it's why i wrote keybindings listen and someone else wrote input listen.

Good idea. They should be mentioned.

One major difference is that by default, Enter performs the substitution rather than running the command as usual. In a recent-enough Bash, you can configure Space to do this (see this blog post).

ya, that would be cool to have space expand it. i really wish we could combine this stuff with an fish abbrev-like functionality. they're very similar, one gets that last commands and one just expands aliases.

Is it possible to map !$ to some other key combination? Unfortunately on my keyboard layout to execute !$<Enter> requires 5 key presses (shift to get !, alt to get $). I am longing for bash <Esc>. all the time (2 key presses). A user defined combination would be great..

Worth checking the https://github.com/nushell/reedline/issues and adding a feature request there, maybe someone is interested in figuring this out :)

@orr721 I believe this works

  {
    name: insert_last_token
    modifier: alt
    keycode: char_.
    mode: [emacs vi_normal vi_insert]
    event: [
      { edit: InsertString, value: " !$" }
      { send: Enter }
    ]
  }
