Wait until you learn about ctrl-R to search the bash history… :) If you press that and start typing, you will get auto complete from previous commands you typed. This is how an experienced linux user can be so fast in the terminal.
There are even better tools for this, so ctrl R is just the built in way. Later you should look into https://github.com/junegunn/fzf
grep is sooo useful. Combined with piping commands it can do some really powerful stuff. I didn’t really understand a lot of these commands until I took a Linux class at my local community college. That helped a lot.
didn’t know there was a comment for that, I just always used cat to read the bash history file
