The only other dependency is fzy for fuzzy matching.

(Still, I personally believe these features are overrated and don't actually bring in more usability or comfort to the command line experience. For instance, ctrl+r kills the need for suggestions and instead of selecting files scrolling through them with your fingers, you can select them using your eyes?)
I tried. It was a source of inspiration for the looks, because it looks really nice!
However, due to some design decisions ble.sh is slow to the point of being unusable on some hardware I use, including a modern laptop running msys2 instead of WSL2

Use both: seed your history search with the path and a few keywords, then sort by frequency of how often it was the correct or successful complete in the past (meaning it gave you a non error return code)
ble.sh has a vast array of configuration options. By disabling features I didn't like or need I was able to make it run pretty fast and responsive.
In the end, doing a rewrite of the core features allowed me to fine tune the technical choices to work extremely well on Windows (where fork is slow) while adding SQL for both the command history and query format, so hopefully I didn't just reinvent the wheel :)
