+.SH "USING SELECTOR IN BASH"
+
+The selector command comes with a shell script for bash. If you add
+
+.B source bash-selector.sh --hist --cd
+
+in your \fB~/.bashrc\fR, it will remap M-r to the smart history search,
+and redefine cd so that M-c provides a smart cd history.

-.SH "KEYBINDING IN BASH"
-
-You can associate selector to a single key in bash by using the
-command 'bind' in your bash initialization file. For instance, to
-associate it to M-r (that is, the "Alt" and "r" key pressed together),
-just add something like
-
-bind \(aq\(dq\\C-[r\(dq:\(dq\\C-a\\C-kselector -q -b -i -d -v -w -l ${HISTSIZE} <(history)\\C-m\(dq\(aq
-
-in your
-.IR ~/.bashrc .
-
-This bindings uses the control character ^A to put the cursor to the
-mostleft location and ^K to erase the current content of the readline
-buffer, and it simulates the enter key with ^M.
-
-Note that depending on the configuration of your system, the sequence
-associated to the M-r key, which is here "C-[r", may differ. To figure
-it out, simply press C-q followed by M-r in the console.
