In fish, tab does normal completion. Right-arrow accepts the current suggestion. You can use Ctrl-F instead of right-arrow (as usual for Emacs-inspired movement keys).

Edited to add: A suggestion is a complete command line based on the history. Completion looks at the disk for file names and the like, and only talks about the current "word".

If the '→' key is too far away from the home row for your liking, you can use Control-E instead, as long as you're at the end of the input buffer (it's the "go-to-end-of-buffer" command normally)

Thank you. I will definitely try again!
