Users typically bind their UP and DOWN arrow keys to this script, thus:
* Run `cat -v` in your favorite terminal emulator to observe key codes.
     (**NOTE:** In some cases, `cat -v` shows the wrong key codes. If the
key codes shown by `cat -v` don't work for you, press `<C-v><UP>` and
`<C-v><DOWN>` at your ZSH command line prompt for correct key codes.)
* Press the UP arrow key and observe what is printed in your terminal.
* Press the DOWN arrow key and observe what is printed in your terminal.
* Press the Control and C keys simultaneously to terminate the `cat -v`.
* Use your observations from the previous steps to create key bindings.
For example, if you observed `^[[A` for UP and `^[[B` for DOWN, then:
bindkey '^[[A' history-substring-search-up
bindkey '^[[B' history-substring-search-down
bindkey '^[[A' history-substring-search-up
bindkey '^[[B' history-substring-search-down
You might also want to bind the Control-P/N keys for use in EMACS mode:
You might also want to bind the Control-P/N keys for use in EMACS mode:

bindkey -M emacs '^N' history-substring-search-down
bindkey -M emacs '^P' history-substring-search-up
bindkey -M emacs '^N' history-substring-search-down
You might also want to bind the `k` and `j` keys for use in VI mode:
You might also want to bind the `k` and `j` keys for use in VI mode:
bindkey -M vicmd 'k' history-substring-search-up
bindkey -M vicmd 'j' history-substring-search-down
* (Note: There are cases, where `cat -v` lies to you. If the key codes
provided by `cat -v` didn't work for you, try pressing `<C-v><UP>`
and `<C-v><DOWN>` in the terminal and using the displayed key
codes instead.)
bindkey -M vicmd 'k' history-substring-search-up
bindkey -M vicmd 'j' history-substring-search-down
