you have to add the source command to .zshrc
, not source it manually. commands from .zshrc
run every time you open the shell. (when you're making changes, you can reload it by doing exec zsh
instead of opening a new terminal).
alternatively, you can use a package manager (e.g. zinit), it'll take care of downloading and sourcing files for you (but you still have to edit zshrc to setup the package manager).
See this note that should have displayed after installing via homebrew https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/zsh-autosuggestions.rb#L15-L21
Same thing happen to me. I followed second method and need to source everytime

FYI, I using MacOS Big Sur
I am using a Mac with Catalina version 10.15.5. I tried installing autosuggestions using homebrew and although it installed properly it did not work. I then did the manual approach of cloning and sourcing and it worked. However, when I closed the terminal it didn't work. I had to source it again for it to work next time. What do I do so that I don't have to enable it every time?
