The overwhelming majority of localizable messages comes from
completions:
$ ls share/completions/ | wc -l
$ 1048
OTOH functions also contribute a small amount, mostly via their
descriptions (so usually just one per file).
$ ls share/functions/ | wc -l
$ 237
Most of these are private and almost never shown to the user, so it's
not worth bothering translators with them. So:
- Skip private (see the parent commit) and deprecated functions.
- Skip wrapper functions like grep (where the translation seems to
be provided by apropos), and even the English description is not
helpful.
- Assume that most real systems have "seq", "realpath" etc.,
so it's no use providing our own translations for our fallbacks.
- Mark fish's own functions as tier1, and some barely-used functiosn
and completions as tier3, so we can order them that way in
po/*.po. Most translators should only look at tier1 and tier2.
In future we could disable localization for tier3.

Part of #11833
Since 0fea1dae8c (__fish_print_help: Make formatting more man-like,
2024-10-03), there is barely any difference left between "man abbr"
and "abbr -h".
The main difference is that it looks almost like man but is actually
nroff/mandoc and less. This means it doesn't support environment
variables like MANWIDTH and possibly others.
Let's use full "man" for now.
This matches what "git foo --help" does so it's widely accepted.
Keep around a fallback for a while, in case users/packagers fail to
install the new "man" dependency.
In future, "abbr -h" (as opposed to "abbr --help") could show a more
concise version, not sure.
Closes#11786
Some of these handled multiline prompts but not multiline command lines. We
first need to move the cursor to the end of the commandline, then we can
print a message. Finally, we need to move the cursor back to where it was.
When we want to print something while the prompt is still active, we move the
cursor by printing a newline for each line in the prompt beyond the first
one. As established by 80fe0a7fc (fish_job_summary: Format message better
for multiline prompts, 2022-06-28), our use of "string repeat" actually
prints an extra newline. Let's remove it here as well.
We have some key bindings that print directly to the terminal while the user
is still typing the command line. Thereafter, we redraw the command line,
so the user can resume typing. To redraw a multiline command line, we first
erase several lines above the cursor. To not erase the key bindings' output,
we move the cursor down that many lines.
Simplify the logic; no functional change.
Corrects #6110
BSD `seq` produces a down-counting sequence when the second argument is
smaller than the first, e.g.:
$ seq 2 1
2
1
$
While GNU `seq` produces no output at all:
$ seq 2 1
$
To accommodate for this behavior, only run `seq` when we are sure that
the second argument is greater than or equal to the first (in this case,
the second argument `line_count` should be greater than 1).
* Fix default Alt+W keybinding
The old keybinding would chop off the last line of the `whatis` output
when using a multi-line prompt. This fix corrects that.
* Make variable local and remove unneeded if statement
* Test that token is non-empty
