# Search within your typed history as you type (like ctrl-R in bash)
# Usage:

# * Setup: /bind ^R /history_search_start

# * Then type ctrl-R and type what you're searching for

# * You can cycle through multiple matches with ^R (older matches), and
#   ^S (newer matches)

# NOTE: Ctrl-S may not work if you have software flow control configured for
# your terminal. It may appear to freeze irssi entirely. If this happens, it can
# be restored with Ctrl-Q, but you will be unable to use the Ctrl-S binding.
# You can disable flow control by running the command `stty -ixon' in your
# terminal, or setting `defflow off' in your ~/.screenrc if using GNU Screen.

# * Hitting enter selects a match and terminates search mode.

# * You can use ^G to exit search mode without selecting.

# * Any other ctrl- or meta- key binding will terminate search mode, leaving the
#   selected item in the input line.
