hstr: bash history fuzzy finder

I usually opt for history | grep -i <term> or history | ag <term> depending on which system I’m on.

For local development, I’ve started using hstr.

Fedora: dnf install hstr

Ubuntu 22.04 apt instll hstr

Or, just use nix-env -i hstr

Personally, I’ve opted for nix because I’m still on 20.04 and I am tired of installing ppa’s only to have their keys expire and break all updates on the system.
