This package spec is for the GNOME Shell extension

The GNOME Shell Run Command dialog (Alt-F2) and Looking Glass let you
9fb2223
cycle through the history of previous commands with the arrow keys, but
9fb2223
there's currently no built-in way to search or do autocompletion for
9fb2223
commands. With HistoryManager Prefix Search, you can type the beginning
9fb2223
of a command, and then hit the PageUp and PageDown keys to cycle through
9fb2223
previous commands which match the prefix you typed.

  extension, and click the switch to "ON."
