hope support use <c-n> <c-p> in insert mode to get history search

Not sure about it. It means the plugin has to maintain an array of old search entries. And its size would increase with every usage of the plugin. I am just thinking can we utilize some vim/neovim capability here so that we don't have to use the list. Do you have any vim/neovim feature in mind that can help us to implement this with O(1) memory usage?

@RishabhRD May be just maintain recent 10 search history? too many seems not useful

@zdmgmail maintaining 10 in search history would be a sort of hack. However, if done using a command also, like vimscript command, it would maintain history. So, we can't escape from memory usage. Hence, I thought we can maintain it ourselves to get more control.

Just update popfix and nvim-cheat.sh to get the feature. :smiley:

I have updated readme for the new mappings.

Thanks for such a valuable suggestion.
