Install Plugin Example

I’ve used zsh-autosuggestions for a long time. Here’s how to add this plugin to your ~/.zshrc file:

git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-autosuggestions

Then open your ~/.zshrc file, find the plugins section, and add zsh-autosuggestions:

plugins=(
    # other plugins...
    zsh-autosuggestions
)

Start a new terminal session, and you’ll have autosuggestions.
