McFly - Mac terminal shell history search (Ctrl+R) replacement

With my bad memory I constantly use Ctrl+R to find previously typed commands in the terminal.
McFly makes this option much more pleasant by providing an intellignet search eninge that is much smarter than the default.
 
Looks like this:
 
Install on Mac:
 
1. 
brew tap cantino/mcfly https://github.com/cantino/mcfly

2.

brew install mcfly

3. Zsh config:

eval "$(mcfly init zsh)”
