Editing (ZLE)

Run a command without losing current command line input

Use Alt + Q to save the current command line and execute another command. Afterwards the old command line is restored automatically (uses the push-line ZLE command):

$ cp file1 ~/dir1  # press alt+q
$                  # command line goes blank
$ ls ~/dir1        # execute a command
$ cp file1 ~/dir1  # old command line restored
