Any widget that moves the cursor to the right(forward-word, forward-char...)
will accept parts of the suggested text. For example, vi-mode users can do
this:
2013-11-07 20:17:10 -03:00
2013-11-08 08:20:57 -03:00
```sh
# Accept suggestions without leaving insert mode
bindkey '^f' vi-forward-word
2013-12-03 23:25:52 +04:00
# or
2013-11-08 08:20:57 -03:00
bindkey '^f' vi-forward-blank-word
2013-10-26 13:05:17 -03:00
```
2013-11-08 08:20:57 -03:00
Emacs-mode users can simply use alt+f which is bound to forward-word
The [zsh-history-substring-search ](https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-history-substring-search )
plugin is also recommended.
