I really liked some of the old-school command line stuff like reverse history search and Snoopy swearing (!$). However, I still prefer Fish to Bash and Zsh, even though those two things are not included. It gets the really important stuff just right and makes the rest configurable.

Btw, is it just my imagination or is using Ctrl-c with Fish much faster?

Fish has been my favorite shell for a few years. My favorite part is the auto suggestions, which works really well. And new completion rules are relatively easy to add.
