 === Command Line History Search ===
 Use ''Ctrl + r'' to reverse search command history and ''Ctrl + s'' to forward search. ''Esc'' selects the current line and restores it to the active command line. ''Ctrl + g'' cancels the history search without recalling a line to the active command line.
+Add the following to the ''bashrc'' to disable the flow control function of ''Ctrl + s''
 <code bash>
 stty -ixon # enabled forward search with Ctrl+s by disabling XON/XOFF flow control

   * ''history -s <cmd line>'', save the specified command line to history without executing it. Alternatively, prefix a line with the comment character (#) and it will be saved to history as a comment.
+====== Command Delimiter ======
