Flyline is a Bash plugin written in Rust that replaces readline to provide a modern command-line editing experience. It adds syntax highlighting, autosuggestions, fuzzy history search, rich prompts, mouse support, and AI agent-assisted command writing.
Use cases
- replace readline in bash with modern line editing
- add syntax highlighting and autosuggestions to bash
- fuzzy search my shell command history
- customize my bash prompt with widgets and animations
- get AI agent help writing shell commands
- improve bash tab completion with tooltips
- get an out-of-the-box polished shell without configuring many plugins
When to choose
- you use Bash as your primary shell and want modern editing features
- you want ble.sh-like functionality with better performance via Rust
- you want autosuggestions, fuzzy history, and rich prompts without assembling multiple plugins
- you want to extend your shell line editor in Rust
When to avoid
- you use zsh or fish rather than bash
- you rely on standard readline behavior or scripts that assume it
- you don't want mouse capturing in the terminal
- you need a battle-tested, long-established line editor
