This reverts commit 23ce9de1c3.
The compilation failure on Rust nightly was fixed in rust-shellexpand
commit b6173f0 (Rename WstrExt and WstrRefExt methods, 2026-02-23).
wcwidth isn't a great idea - it returns "-1" for anything it doesn't
know and non-printables, which can easily break text.
It is also unclear that it would be accurate to the system console,
and that's a minority use-case over using ssh to access older systems.
Additionally, it means we use one less function from libc and
simplifies the code.
Closes#12562
"Emoji width" refers to the width of emoji codepoints. Since Unicode
9, they're classified as "wide" according to
TR11 (https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr11/).
Unicode 9 was released in 2016, and this slowly percolated into C
libraries and terminals. Glibc updated its default in 2.26, released
in August 2017.
Until now, we'd guess support for unicode 9 by checking the system
wcwidth function for an emoji - if it returned 2, we'd set our emoji
width to 2 as well.
However, that's a problem in the common case of using ssh to connect
to an old server - modern desktop OS, old server LTS OS, boom.
So now we instead just figure you've got a system that's *displaying*
the emoji that has been updated in the last 9 years.
In effect we're putting the burden on those who run old RHEL et al as
their client OS. They need to set $fish_emoji_width to 1.

When cargo is installed via rustup, running cargo actually goes through
a proxy managed by rustup. This proxy determines the actual toolchain
to use, depending on environment variables, directory overrides etc. In
some cases, the proxy may automatically install the selected toolchain
if it's not yet installed, for example when first working on a project
that pins its rust toolchain via a `rust-toolchain.toml` file. In that
case, running cargo in the completion script can block the prompt for
a very long time. To avoid this, we instruct the rustup proxy not to
auto-install any toolchain with an environment variable.
Closes#12575
Commit 7ef4e7dfe7 (Time out terminal queries after a while,
2025-09-21) though that "2 seconds ought to be enough for anyone".
But that's not true in practice: when rebooting a macOS system, it
can take longer. Let's see if 10 seconds is enough. It should be fine
to have such a high timeout since this shouldn't happen in other cases.
Closes#12571
Add support for the SHELL_PROMPT_PREFIX, SHELL_PROMPT_SUFFIX, and
SHELL_WELCOME environment variables as standardized by systemd v257.
SHELL_PROMPT_PREFIX and SHELL_PROMPT_SUFFIX are automatically prepended
and appended to the left prompt at the shell level, so all prompts
(default, custom, and sample) pick them up without modification.
SHELL_WELCOME is displayed after the greeting when an interactive shell
starts.
These variables provide a standard interface for tools like systemd's
run0 to communicate session context to the shell.

The `forward-word` readline command on "a-a-a" is wrong (jumps to
"a"); on "aa-aa-aa" it's right (jumps to "-"); that's a regression
from bbb2f0de8d (feat(vi-mode): make word movements vi-compliant,
2026-01-10).
The is_word_end check for ForwardWordEmacs only tests for blank
(whitespace) after the current char. In the Punctuation style, words
also end before punctuation.
Fix this.

`set_color normal` is too ambiguous and easily misinterpreted since
it actually reset all colors and modes instead of resetting just
the foreground color as one without prior knowledge might expect.
Closes#12548
Use portageq to retrieve system paths instead of hardcoding them in.
This helps especially in Gentoo Prefix, where the installation is not
in / but rather offset inside a subdirectory (usually a users home
directory).
This only affects the "slow" path. When eix is installed it will be used
instead. It already accounts for Prefix installations.
Closes#12552

/bin/ls and /bin/echo do not necessarily exist on all systems, e.g.
nixos.
/bin/sh should at least exist on more systems than /bin/ls and /bin/echo

/bin/cat doesn't exist on e.g. nixos, which only has /bin/sh and
/usr/bin/env.
/usr/bin/env should at least exist on more systems than /bin/cat

These binaries are not guaranteed to exist at /bin/X on all systems,
e.g. nixos does not place binaries there, but as long as they are in the
PATH we can find them with command.

This is done partly for consistency `underline` where we still need
`off` but where true/false doesn't make sense, and partly to simplify
user choices and the code.

In WSL, if Docker is not started, the `docker` command is a script
that prints an error message to stdout instead of a valid script.
`docker.exe` is available and can return the completion script. However
any completion will end up calling that `docker` script anyway,
resulting further errors due to the unexpected output.
Closes#12538
The value shown is in KiB (2^{10} bytes), according to
`man 2 getrusage`, not kb (10^3 bits), so reflect this in the variable
name and output.
Closes#12529
`--foreground` has two purposes:
- allow resetting the foreground color to its default, without also
resetting the other colors and modes
- improve readibility and unify the `set_color` arguments
`--reset` also has two purposes:
- provide a more intuitive way to reset the text formatting
- allow setting the colors and modes from a clean state without
requiring two calls to `set_color`
