From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Fish (or zsh with some addons) will give you tab completion based on previous commands, might be something of interest?
Here's some addon tips if you'd rather run zsh instead of fish:

Fish shell is great, but the more I've used it, the more incompatibilities I've found:
Other than that, it just works by default (unlike zsh) and it works even better with an easy-to-install Tide
Yeah, it has its downsides. zsh with some addons is probably better overall. Or if you're at least aware of it's differences from bash and can work with that.
