Hello,

using M-r I can search through the history of this shell session. But emacs 
does not save the history between session and I also use the plain shell.

How can I search though my shells (zsh) history (what I do with Ctrl-r) 
within emacs?

Thanks,
Florian

For this I have a horrible method of macroing a function key to essentially
output tail -n 500 ~/.bash_history

then I can use M-r.

Would be nice if there was a better method.
