The selector command comes with a shell script for bash. If you add
-.RS
-.EX
-source bash-selector.sh --hist --cd
-.EE
-.RE
+.P
+.nf
+.B source bash-selector.sh --hist --cd
+.fi
in your \fB~/.bashrc\fR, it will remap M-r to the smart history search,
-and redefine cd so that M-c provides a smart cd history.

+This script relies on readline being configured with the default
+emacs-style key bindings. You may have to hack a bit if you want to
+use it with the vi-style mode.
