    Why do all that typing? Hit ctrl-r first then type ls. Bonus points if you hook fzf into it.

    fzf hooked into ctrl-r, a bash history of about 100k and HISTCONTROL=ignoreboth is magic.

    Note: backup your history file periodically, system crashes at the wrong time can zero it leaving you incompetent until it’s restored.

          Yeah it’s ridiculous. That’s the woosh. The statement was “I’d type more blah piped to ls then copy and paste before typing ls

          It’s absurd. It’s obviously absurd. If you didn’t pick up on that, you got wooshed
