+# Fuzzy all the things
+
+### Purpose
+
+This contains a few scripts that add fuzzy search interfaces to built-in nu functionalities. Often you
+want to search commands/your history interactively, which is where [fzf](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf) excels at.
+
+
+### How to use
+
+`./fuzzy_history_search.nu` searches your command history and, after pressing `enter`, copies the selected command into the clipboard
+`./fuzzy_command_search.nu` searches both commands and subcommands for both a) names and b) their description, and, after pressing `enter`, copies the selected command into the clipboard
+
+To use them in your day-to-day workflow, add 
+```
+[
+    "source <absolute-path-to-nu_script>/fuzzy/fuzzy_history_search.nu", 
+    "source <absolute-path-to-nu_script>/fuzzy/fuzzy_command_search.nu"
+]
+```
+
+
+to your `startup` array in you config `.toml`.
+
+It's likely a good idea to  also add some short and sweet aliases, e.g.
+
+```
+alias hi = fuzzy-history-search
+alias hf = fuzzy-command-search
+```
+
+To your config
