This happens in firejail, and it means that we can't use it as an
argument to most pgid-taking functions.
E.g. `wait(0)` means to wait for the _current_ process group,
`tcsetpgrp(0)` doesn't work etc.
So we just stop doing this stuff and hope it works.
Fixes#5295.
The solarized themes now define pager colors, while other schemes
don't.
So if a user picks one of them, and then another, they'd keep the
pager colors.
Instead, since the default theme is now complete, any theme that does
not define its own pager colors will always get the default ones.

This was missing a bunch of variables from __fish_config_interactive.
Ideally we wouldn't have to duplicate this info, but I don't have a
great solution either.
This removes ~140ms from every single prompt.
When not in a git repo, this prompt now takes ~9ms, as opposed to

This is quite ugly, but in lieu of putting in a proper ansi
parser (i.e. the output part of a terminal), since this is the only
such sequence we have seen until now, let's just match it.
Fixes#5312.
[ci skip]
- Remove use of `eval`
- Use `git rev-parse` instead of `git status` as its faster,
- especially in large repos. (in qt5: 600ms vs 1ms)
- Use return status instead of test -n
This should change nothing about the output.
This uses some more string, but the main improvement is using "git
rev-list" instead of parsing "git branch" output that happens to be localized.

I can't see the value in this, given that we have a bunch of minimalist ones.
The "escaping" here is gnarly enough that I don't want to attempt to clean it up.
man.fish can be clarified a bit, by removing a superfluous early return. Additionally, performance can be
(ever so slightly) improved, by using the empty string to suffix an extra colon when `$MANPATH` is empty, as
described in `manpath(1)`. As `man` will internally call `manpath` as it starts, this eliminates a redundancy.
This adds the color variables from the docs to both the python script
and the js controller.
Among others, this includes "search_match", i.e.
"fish_color_search_match".
It still does not include the pager colors because the variable names
wouldn't match.
This reverts commit 1cb8b2a87b.
argv[0] has the full path in it for a user when he executes it
out of $PATH. This is really annoying in the title which uses $_.
Also check if that is actually defined, not the cur_term proxy.
In #5371, we figured out that there are terminfo entries without this
capability, so this would do a NULL-dereference.
OCLINT was ignoring this, but we can just not do the bad thing.
Declare argc and argv const. These are in the stack, they can
be modified, but we won't.
Fix a typo
... rather than hard code it to "fish". This affects
what is found in $_ and improves the errors:
For example, if fish was ran with ./fish, instead of
something like:
fish: Expected 3 surprises, only got 2 surprises
we'll see:
./fish: Expected 3 surprises, only got 2 surprises
like most other shell utilities. It's just a tiny bit
of detail that can avoid confusion.
This broke fishtape, which did
somestuff | fish -c "source"
Because `source` didn't have a redirection, it refused to read from
stdin.
So, to keep the common issue of `source (command that does not print)`
from seeminly stopping fish, we instead actually check if stdin is a terminal.
This was causing problems if "fish" wasn't in exec_path, like
if the binary had been renamed.
I also noticed that even with 'fish' not renamed, only paths.data
was made relative to my source tree. paths.sysconf, paths.doc, and
paths.bin were all relative to /usr/local.
This had a bunch of "do_{backward,forward}" movements that differed
only in one argument.
Just keep them together, so it's less code, and less needs to be
changed.
`ls` was suggesting options that are are not valid for my system,
omitting options that are on my system. Different BSD OSes have
different option extensions, and some of them do conflict with eachother.
I carefully checked the manuals of netbsd, macos, freebsd, and openbsd
`ls` and made the completions show the right completions in full for them.
Some verbiage tweaks as well.
- No longer uses sed, sort, uniq, uname
- Stop doing too-clever filtering (e.g. the kernel thread stuff never
- really worked)
- Don't truncate for all OSen, instead just use the (correctly
- truncated) comm field.
The colors happening for the interactive tests didn't match the
expected output. For `history search` commands we test, have them
pipe through `cat` so the fishscript does not use a pager or try
to colorize.
- Colorize history search output when interactive, using
fish_indent. This is the same way we colorize `type` output.
- Ask less to act like `cat` if the output will fit in the
terminal window, so it's less jaring with short output.
- history is viewed in a pager when interactive, but pagers
typically strip escape codes. We accomplish the above by
doing exactly what `git` does[1] when it has colored output
for a pager:
if $LESS is unset, set it to enable -R, -F, and -X options.
if $LV is unset, set it to -c.

If the user is in a directory which has been unlinked, it is possible
for the path .. to not exist, relative to the working directory.
Always pass in the working directory (potentially virtual) to
path_get_cdpath; this ensures we check absolute paths and are immune
from issues if the working directory has been unlinked.
Also introduce a new function path_normalize_for_cd which normalizes the
"join point" of a path and a working directory. This allows us to 'cd' out of
a non-existent directory, but not cd into such a directory.
Fixes#5341
realpath() will return NULL and sets errno if it fails.
We asserted that realpath(".") does not fail. We also didn't really
check that it was successful. Made sure we'll get a perror telling
us about what went wrong if something like this happens again.
Updated tests and added test case
Fixes#5351
* Replace "env" with "expr" in the test manpage
I'm pretty sure `env` isn't capable of comparing numbers and the author meant `expr`.
* Update the docs regarding floats support in test
Fixes some potentially unsafe uses of direct substitution into regex
expressions and also switches some completions to regex-based now that
there is a safe way of using it.
If fish detects that it was started with a pgrp of 0 (which appears to
oddly be the case when run under firejail), create new process group for
fish and give it control of the terminal.
This selectively reverts 55b3c45 in cases where an invalid pgrp is
detected. Note that this is known to cause problems in other cases, such
as #3805 and Microsoft/WSL#1653, although the former may have been
ameliorated or even addressed by the recent job control overhaul, so
that's why we are careful to only assign fish to its own pgroup if an
invalid pgroup was detected and not as the normal case.
This reverts commit 54050bd4c5.
Type job_list_t was changed from a list to a deque in
commit 54050bd4c5.
In process_clean_after_marking(), we remove jobs while iterating.
dequeues do not support that. Make it a list again.
This fixes the `~floam/` case, where the out_tail_idx pointer needs to
point to the "/", not the last letter.
The `~/` and `~floam` cases still work.
Unfortunately, I'm unsure of how to test this.
Fixes#5325.
In writing the completion script for openocd I found the need to
complete paths at the command-line as if they were relative to a
path other than the current $PWD. Given that `$PWD` is currently
global in fish (i.e. no side-effect free `cd` within a subshell)
this is probably good to have for other completions too.
This also fixes a bug in support for explicitly supplying the
description for completions via a `$argv` parameter, which prefixed
the description with `\t` (which is correct) except it did so in
the local scope within an `if` statement, meaning the changes never
had any effect and in the output the description was directly
concatenated to the completions, instead of separated by a tab.
Incorrectly assumed that pandoc uses XDG_CONFIG_HOME, it turns out the
path is hard-coded as $HOME/.pandoc unless explicitly otherwise
specified in the command-line.
Limit the fish_wcstod fast path to ASCII digits only, to fix the problem
observed in the discussion for a700acadfa
where LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 would cause `test` to interpret commas instead of
periods inside floating point values.
This merges a stack that removes the WAIT_BY_PROCESS and NESTED job flags.
Instead jobs are taught about their parents, and parents are interrogated to
determine whether they are fully constructed, and therefore whether it is
safe to call waitpid().
Now jobs are aware of their parent jobs, and can interrogate those jobs,
to determine if every job in the chain is fully constructed.
Remove flags and the static stacks that manipulated them.
The parent of a job is the parent pipeline that executed the function or
block corresponding to this job. This will help simplify
process_mark_finished_children().
Prior to this fix, cding into a symlink and then completing .. would complete
from the physical directory instead of the logical directory, which could not
actually be cd'd to. Teach cd completiond to use the logical directory.
Don't attempt to complete against package names if the user is trying to
enter a switch to speed things up.
Also work around #5267 by not wrapping unfiltered `all-the-package-name`
calls in a function.
select_try() returned IO_ERROR to indicate that there's no file descriptors
from which to read. Name this return value properly.
Also migrate this type into proc.cpp since it's not used outside of the
header.
This is an opposite case from the usual "pipe into grep-the-function"
where my `pbpaste` emitted a lot of content exceeding the OS pipe
buffer. The `block_on_fg` condition was just `send_sigcont` in the
original job control rewrite, and it was incorrect to sub it for
WAIT_BY_PROCESS on its own.
However, this requires always blocking when select_try returns an
interrupted/incomplete read or else fish doesn't block and stays running
in a tight loop in the background (and incorrectly writing to a terminal
it doesn't own under higher debug levels), which I *think* is OK.
Instantiate the std:locale instance used within the character comparison
callback outside the lambda and take a reference to it instead of
creating the locale object for each character in the sequence.
This is part of a very tight loop with lots of inputs during the
evaluation of fuzzy string matches for completions/autosuggestions and
is worth optimizing.
This was introduced in 1b1bc28c0a but did
not cause any problems until the job control refactor, which caused it
to attempt to signal the calling `exec` builtin's own (invalid) pgrp
with SIGHUP.
Also improved debugging for `j->signal()` failures by printing the
signal we tried sending in case of error, rename the function to
`hup_background_jobs`, and move it from `reader.h`/`reader.cpp` to
`proc.h`/`proc.cpp`.
When a function is encountered by exec_job, a new context is created for
its execution from the ground up, with a new job and all, ultimately
resulting in a recursive call to exec_job from the same (main) thread.
Since each time exec_job encounters a new job with external commands
that needs terminal control it creates a new pgrp and gives it control
of the terminal (tcsetpgrp & co), this effectively takes control away
from the previously spawned external commands which may be (and likely
are) expecting to still have terminal access.
This commit attempts to detect when such a situation arises by handling
recursive calls to exec_job (which can only happen if the pipeline
included a function) by borrowing the pgrp from the (necessarily still
active) parent job and spawning new external commands into it.
When a parent job spawns new jobs due to the evaluation of a new
function (which shouldn't be the case in the first place), we end up
with two distinct jobs sharing one pgrp (to fix#3952). This can lead to
early termination of a pgrp if finished parent job children are reaped
before future processes in either the parent or future child jobs can
join it.
While the parent job is under construction, require that waitpid(2)
calls for the child job be done by process id and not job pgrp.
Closes#3952.
Use SIGCHLD to determine whether or not waitpid(2) calls can be elided,
but only with extreme caution. If we receive SIGCHLD but are not able to
reap all jobs, we need to iterate through them again.
For this to work, we need to make sure that we reap all children that we
can reap after a SIGCHLD, i.e. it's not OK to just reap the first and
return or else we can never clear the dirty state flag.
In all cases, as expensive as a call to waitpid() may be, if a child
process is available for reaping it is always cheaper to wait on it then
reap it than to call select_try() and end up timing out.
The old code was rather haphazard with regards to error control, and
would make mutable changes before operations that could fail without any
viable error handling options.
Convert `select_try()` to return a well-defined enum describing its
state, and handle each of the three possible cases with clear reasons
why we are blocking or not blocking in each subsequent call to
`process_mark_finished_children()`.
* Use the newly-introduced signal_block_t RAII wrapper
* Remove EINTR loops as all signals are blocked
* Clean up control flow thanks to RAII wrappers
* Rename parameter to clarify what it does and update docs accordingly
* Update outdated comments referencing SIGSTOP code that was removed a
long time ago.
* Remove no-op CHECK_BLOCK() call
* Convert JOB_* enums to scoped enums
* Convert standalone job_is_* functions to member functions
* Convert standalone job_{promote, signal, continue} to member functions
* Convert standolen job_get{,_from_pid} to `job_t` static functions
* Reduce usage of JOB_* enums outside of proc.cpp by using new
`job_t::is_foo()` const helper methods instead.
This patch is only a refactor and should not change any functionality or
behavior (both observed and unobserved).
* Debug level 3: describe all commands being executed (this is, after all,
a shell and one can argue that this is the most important debug
information avaliable)
* Debug level 4: details of execution, mainly fork vs no-fork and io
handling
Also introduced j->preview() to print a short descriptor of the job
based on the head of the first process so we don't overwhelm with
needless repitition, but also so that we don't have to rely on
distinguishing between repeated, non-unique/non-monotonic job ids that
are often recycled within a single "execution cycle" (pressing enter
once).
Per @ridiculousfish's suggestions in #5219,
`process_mark_finished_children()` has been updated to work in an easier-
to-follow manner. Its behavior is now straight forward, it always checks
for finished processes but only blocks if `block_on_fg` is true.
We're not using the SIGCHLD count in s_sigchld_generation_cnt for
anything any more, as it's not actually a reliable metric since we can
experience one SIGCHLD as a result of two processes exiting (see #1768),
but only reap one of them if the other is in a not-fully-constructed job
(see #5219), a state we cannot possibly detect without calling
`waitpid()` on all child processes, which we are explicitly avoiding.
We never insert elements into the middle of a job list, only move
elements to the top. While that can be done "efficiently" with a list, it
can be done faster with a deque, which also won't thrash the cache when
enumerating over jobs.
This speeds up enumeration in the critical path in
`process_mark_finished_children()`.
* Instead of reaping all child processes when we receive a SIGCHLD, try
reaping only processes belonging to process groups from fully-
constructed jobs, which should eliminate the need for the keepalive
process entirely (WSL's lack of zombies not withstanding) as now
completed processes are not reaped until the job has been fully
constructed (i.e. all processes launched), which means their process
group should still be around for new processes to join.
* When `tcgetpgrp()` calls return 0, attempt to `tcsetpgrp()` before
invoking failure handling code.
* When forking a builtin and not running interactively, do not bail if
unable to set/restore terminal attributes.
Fixes#4178. Fixes#3805. Fixes#5210.
This is to avoid development versions of fish 3.0 freaking out when the
file format is changed. We now have better support for for future universal
variable formats so it's unlikely we'll have to change the file name again.
We do a bunch of escaping before to make `eval` work, and that needs to be removed as well or fragment-urls don't work.
This reverts commit e9568069a7.
Use clang/clang++'s own autocompletion support to complete arguments. It
is rather convoluted as clang generates autocompletions for a portion of
the current token rather than the entire token, e.g. while `--st` will
autocomplete to `--std=` (which is fine by fish), `--std=g` will
autocomplete to `gnu...` without the leading `--std=` which breaks fish'
support for the completion.
Additionally, on systems where clang/clang++ is the system compiler
(such as FreeBSD), it is very often for users to invoke a newer version
of clang/clang++ installed as clang[++]-NN instead of clang. Using a
monkey-patched version of `complete -p` to support that without breaking
(future) completions for commands like `clang-format`.
Closes#4174.
In private mode, access to previous history is blocked and new history
does not persist and is only available for the duration of the current
session.
This mode can be used when it is not desirable for commandline history
to leak into a session, e.g. via autocomplete or when it is desirable to
test the behavior of fish in the absence of history items without
permanently clearing the history.
I'm sure there are a lot more features that can be incorporated into
private mode, such as restricting access to certain user-specific
configuration files, etc.
This addresses a lot of the concerns raised in #1363 (which was later
changed to track mosh-specific problems). See also #102.
When we discard output because there's been too much, we print a
warning, but subsequent uses of the same buffer still discard.
Now we explicitly reset the flag, so we warn once and everything works
normal after.
Fixes#5267.
For things like
source $undefined
or
source (nooutput)
it was quite annoying that it read from tty.
Instead we now require a "-" as the filename to read from the tty.
This does not apply to reading from stdin if it's redirected, so
something | source
still works.
Fixes#2633.
This adds flags --path and --unpath to builtin set, analogous to
--export and --unexport. These flags change whether a variable is
marked as a path variable.
Universal variables cannot yet be path variables.
This switches quoted expansion like "$foo" to use foo's delimiter instead of
space. The delimiter is space for normal variables and colonf or path variables.
Expansions like "$PATH" will now expand using ':'.
This commit begins to bake in a notion of path-style variables.
Prior to this fix, fish would export arrays as ASCII record separator
delimited, except for a whitelist (PATH, CDPATH, MANPATH). This is
surprising and awkward for other programs to deal with, and there's no way
to get similar behavior for other variables like GOPATH or LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
This commit does the following:
1. Exports all arrays as colon delimited strings, instead of RS.
2. Introduces a notion of "path variable." A path variable will be
"colon-delimited" which means it gets colon-separated in quoted expansion,
and automatically splits on colons. In this commit we only do the exporting
part.
Colons are not escaped in exporting; this is deliberate to support uses
like
`set -x PYTHONPATH "/foo:/bar"`
which ought to work (and already do, we don't want to make a compat break
here).
This reverts commit 3f820f0edf.
While the premise described by @nbuwe is sound in #4505, we are now
apparently relying on this behavior is some places (although
inadvertently as there doesn't seem to be a deliberate acknowledgement
of that anywhere).
Turning off ONLCR causes things like indented multiline commands to not
appear correct at the tty (subsequent lines appear both at column 0 and
again indented).
Per @nbuwe's excellent explanation in #4505, we can save on output
to the tty by maintaining column location after NL by disabling the
ONLCR terminal mode.
Closes#4505.
Adds a new match mode for `string_fuzzy_match_t` that matches against a
case-insensitive subsequence within a string, e.g. `LL` now (partially)
matches against `hello`. This is implemented as a separate mode, given a
lower priority of match than a same-case match (when present).
Note that `fuzzy_match_subsequence_insertions_only` has purposely not
been extended with a case-insensitive version as that would be a)
unlikely to match often, and b) adding a second inefficient fuzzy search
to something that's queried a lot. Perhaps `subsequence_insertions_only`
can simply be changed to be a case-insensitive comparison in the future?
Closes#1196. Affects #3978.
If you're using the old binding that only clears the commandline and

For some weird reason we only used $editor if it wasn't empty, but
then failed to fail if it was.
This will now print an error and use fish, just like if the $EDITOR
value is invalid in any other way.
Fixes#5257.
Came in handy for tracking down the performance regression in #5219. This will
take the output of two (necessarily identical) `fish --profile ...` runs and
produce a third profile log in which all times are the difference between the

Retrieves the fully resolved path to the currently executing fish binary
(regardless of PATH). Can be used to ensure that the same fish is

`get_executable_path()` moved from fish binary to libfish, also cleaned

used by that function) in the process.
Remove dependency on the Linux compatibility layer's procfs being

The hg prompt walks up the directory hierarchy to decide if we are in a
repo subdirectory. Because hg is an external command, it resolves symlinks.

This switches fish to a "virtual" PWD, where it no longer uses getcwd to
discover its PWD but instead synthesizes it based on normalizing cd against
the $PWD variable.
Both pwd and $PWD contain the virtual path. pwd is taught about -P to
return the physical path, and -L the logical path (which is the default).
Fixes#3350
This new function performs normalization of paths including dropping
/./ segments, and resolving /../ segments, in preparation for switching

There are a few opportunities to improve the formatting as well as a
handful of typos in this document. I was looking into contributing and
noticed that it might be worthwhile to address them.
I just submitted a PR to fix a few issues in CONTRIBUTING.MD, so I took
a few minutes too look over README.md as well. This is the only room
for improvement I noticed.
Mostly resolves#4862, though there remains the lingering question of

This reverts commit 8c14f0f30f.
This list is not reliable - there are many ways for fish to quit that does not
invoke these functions. It's also not necessary since the history is correctly
saved on exec.
Prior to this change, env_get_pwd_slash() would try to infer the PWD from
getcwd() if $PWD were missing. But this results env_get_pwd_slash() doing
something radically different than $PWD, and also is a lot of code for a
scenario that cannot be reliably reproduced. Just return "/" in this case.
If the replacement in `string replace` is invalid, prior to this fix we would
enter into an infinite loop trying to parse it. Instead report errors correctly.
Fixes#3381
Rather than having tokenizer_error as pointers to objects, switch it back
to just an error code value. This makes reasoning about it easier since
it's immutable values instead of mutable objects, and it avoids allocation
during startup.
At some point the completion code was refactored and in the event where
no explicit function description was passed into `resolve_description()`
it would attempt to use the `desc_func` parameter but pass in the
_remaining_ part of the completion rather than the full text, which
would obviously fail.
e.g. if completing `foo<TAB>`, for function `foobar` it would attempt to
find the description for a function named `bar` instead of `foobar`.
Closes#5206.
This reverts commit 9c63ad3209 until I can
figure out what is causing the assertion and test failures.
It *seems* to be that passing in the correct function name to the

There's been no reproducible case entered for #5080, but the stack trace
indicates the problem is with env_get_pwd_slash() returning an empty
string, which isn't a string that terminates in `/`.
In addition to making the failure case to return the path `./` (which
has the benefit of having the same meaning as $PWD), trying a little bit
harder to retrieve the real PWD by using getcwd(3). While
get_current_dir(3) is documented as relying on PWD, getcwd(3) does not
mention any such caveats, so it's possible that it will work even if
something is breaking PWD.
Just a thought, but it's possible if due to some recursion PWD surpassed
some predetermined value (maybe PATH_MAX) that PWD (on certain platforms
or under certain enivronments) won't be set (hence the code that deals
with ERANGE errors from the getcwd(3) call).
Closes#5080.
As reported in fish-shell/fish-shell#5180, when the USER environment
variable is not set and fish is started, `get_runtime_path()` returns a
blank string. At some point in the past, this was called after
`setup_user()` in env.cpp, but this is no longer the case.
This commit removes the reliance on the $USER environment variable
entirely, and instead uses `getpwuid(geteuid()).pw_name` to retrieve the
current username.
Closes#5180.
For some reason I started getting literal \n appearing in Doxygen-generated
help files. These are coming from newlines in aliases defined in
Doxyfile.user. These should be safe to remove because they are HTML-specific
and there is still whitespace before them. Remove these newlines.
This didn't reproduce on Linux; Doxygen is full of mysteries.
`exec` now exhibits the same behavior as `exit` and prompts the user to
confirm their intention to end the current process if there are
background jobs running. Running `exec` again immediately thereafter
will force the exec to go through.
Additionally, background jobs are reaped upon exec to prevent process
leaking (same as `exit`).
Fix#5133 changed builtins to acquire the terminal, but this regressed

As a side effect, this shares the deduplication logic, so that token search
no longer returns duplicates.
Fixes#4795
This changes the behavior of builtin math to floating point by default.
If the result of a computation is an integer, then it will be printed as an
integer; otherwise it will be printed as a floating point decimal with up to
'scale' digits past the decimal point (default is 6, matching printf).
Trailing zeros are trimmed. Values are rounded following printf semantics.
Fixes#4478
The Informative VCS sample prompt currently sets the `__fish_git_prompt_char_conflictedstate` variable which is unused.
It should instead set the `__fish_git_prompt_char_invalidstate` variable.
Ordering of directories above files was introduced in a recent change to
the same script. By default it does not matter as completions are sorted
by fish internally, but this allows the use of `-k` to sort files before
directories (or piped to `sort -r` for vice-versa).
Use `apt-cache show` instead of `apt-cache packagenames` to efficiently
print package names and a brief description instead of the placeholder
(localized) "Package" text that was previously printed. This applies to
both available and installed packages (for inistall and remove operations,
respectively).
TODO: update `__fish_print_packages` for non-debian platforms to do the
same.
When listing packages already installed (e.g. for use with `apt remove
...`), do not consider packages return by `dpkg --get-selections` with
state 'deinstall'.
Previously the `string replace` pattern was matching both 'install' and
'deinstall' packages.
This reverts commit e2a3dae58b.
This idea failed because ./share was not complete when bliding via cmake;
it misses critical files such as config.fish.
fish tries to be relocatable by looking for directories relative to its
executable. These directories are not found when running fish from
within a cmake build because the etc directory is not present. Stop requiring
this directory to be present since it's not critical for running fish.
Fixes#4825
Don't mmap history files on remote file systems
This merges some changes to history that may help to mitigate the crashes seen in #5088 . These SIGBUS crashes occur when reading a memory mapping whose underlying file was truncated. It's not clear why this should occur more often on NFS (or ever). However memory mapping over NFS is sketchy anyways so this is desirable regardless.
Migrate the mmap() logic into a new class history_file_contents_t which
will serve to encapsulate conditional logic if we choose to use read()
instead of mmap().
Utilized the `--install` flag added in commit #8c09d6e.
Limit `eopkg remove/autoremove/check ...` completions to installed packages.
Limit `eopkg install/upgrade/info ...` completions to available packages.
Prior to this fix, __fish_describe_command would error if the
input contained any special characters, because it would be interpolated
into a regex. Hack in a guard to do nothing if the input contains
anything other than [a-zA-Z0-9_ ]
* update nim.fish sample prompt
- Use an helper function to wrap informations
- Add VIRTUAL_ENV infos, if any
- Add __fish_git_prompt, wrapped for the theme
- Add comments
- Remove ASCII failback symbols for tty
(no more useful for me, but if someone really needs it, just ask)
* fish.nim: test -n __fish_git_prompt
Added a new flag `--installed` via `argparse` to `__fish_print_packages`
which indicates that only installed packages should be listed.
TODO: Other non-debian/apt platforms should take advantage of this flag/
behavior as well.
This adds a new string command split0, which splits on zero bytes.
split0 has superpowers because its output is not further split on
newlines when used in command substitutions.
separated_buffer_t encapsulates the logic around discarding (which
was previously duplicated between output_stream_t and io_buffer_t),
and will also encapsulate the logic around explicitly separated
output.
It was only introduced in 2.16, which was released in January 2018.
Instead, we just use a bare "--ignored", which is equivalent to "--ignored=traditional".
The difference to "--ignored=matching" mode shouldn't matter to us here.
Fixes#5074.
Executes `whatis` safely, returns at most one line, and strips the name
of the command from the start of line, returning a value fit for use as
the description parameter for a completion argument value.
Fixes
- Use the actual path when skipping unusable paths to fix all Include
directives being skipped when there is no ~/.ssh directory
- Prevent "No matches for wildcard" message
Improvements
- Skip paths that are directories since we only want files
- Remove `cd` as it is not needed
__fish_complete_suffix assumed that the only literal . in a path
would be the . before an extension, and stripped accordingly. This
behavior has been there for a long time, but broke many things
including completion of relative paths and completion of paths with
a literal . in a directory name.
__fish_complete_suffix does not just complete extensions (or at the
very least, it no longer does just that) but rather any suffix, so
isolating the path name without the extension was unnecessary in all
cases.
If just one of the range ends is negative, this now forces direction away from it.
I.e. if the beginning is negative, we go in reverse.
If the end is negative, we go forwards.
This fixes cases like
$var[2..-1]
if $var only has one element.
I'm not sure what was wrong with the old syntax, but I needed to switch
the outer quotes to ' and the inner quotes to " in order for the
completions to work when they weren't explicitly sourced.
Additionally, realized that the overload for __fish_complete_suffix can
be used to get the filtered list of kernel modules from /boot/kernel in
the initial run.
Allows the most painful of curl's arguments to be completed by fish by
restoring file-based completions for paths prefixed with `@` (which are
typically used after parameters like --data).
With a blank $suff (i.e. complete all files), __fish_complete_suffix
returned directories twice, once with the trailing `/` and once without.
This fixes that, and additionally speeds up the code by no longer
shelling out to `sort -u` as we no longer rely on brace expansion to
enumerate directories and files simultaneously.
In general, this behavior would occur when a directory exists that
matches the suffix search pattern (so a dir named 'foo.bar' with a
search pattern '.bar' would return 'foo.bar' twice).
Runtime has dropped from ~22ms to ~8ms on my machine, while also
returning more correct results.

We've tried numerous approaches to mitigate the race condition between
`posix_spawn` and the `setpgid` call, but unfortunately due to the flags
we pass to `posix_spawn`, it (rarely? never?) results in `vfork()` being
used, which means it is never executed atomically. Since it is executed
out-of-band, we must manually call `setpgid` in case `posix_spawn`
hasn't gotten around to doing that yet, but in the event that it has, an
EACCES error can be returned.
Closes#4884. Closes#4715. See also #4778.
On systems where the terminfo for TERM does not contain a string for
attributes such as enter_underline_mode, etc. fish was crashing with a
fatal error message and a note to email the developers.
These are non-essential text attribute changes and should not trigger
such a failure.
This allows snippets to use everything that is defined in config.fish,
which is our _base_ initialization.
Among other things, it enables snippets to use $PATH as it will appear
in the user's config.fish, or even to change $PATH.
Also, this is how it was in 2.7.1 and before (with the small change
that abbrs were upgraded after).
As defined in the `go help packages`:
Many commands apply to a set of packages:
go action [packages]
Usually, [packages] is a list of import paths.
This patch introduces automatic lookup of said packages from GOPATH
using `go list`, and provides them as options go subcmds.
I'm not sure what was up with the old completions,
`$__fish_service_commands` is not set anywhere and completions for the
command (not the service) were not being generated on my machine.
macOS and (AFAICT) most Linux distributions ship with the Info-ZIP
version of unzip, which has the `unzip -h` flag; but other
implementations of unzip do not necessarily have it (i.e. FreeBSD).
`unzip` under FreeBSD does not support `unzip -h`. Under both Linux and
FreeBSD, `unzip -v` presents the list of options, though. Using this
instead of `unzip -h` to detect the Debian-patched version of the
Info-ZIP unzip program.

This prints an escape sequence, so it can break scp or similar when
someone has an unqualified
fish_vi_key_bindings

Our completion machinery calls our `__fish_describe_command` function
to describe commands via apropos. Only it trusts the output a bit too
much, so it crashes when any line from that is shorter than the
original string.
Fix this by skipping any string that is shorter than the original,
since it can't be a match anyway.
Also stop doing wcslen so often - std::strings are nice!
Fixes#5014.
These completions are apparently based on an auto-generated version,
so there's a whole bunch of rewording to be done here.
Also for some reason some of the options are mentioned more than once?
I can't seem to find a reason why the shell interpreter needs to be bash
and not just sh here. Needed to replace `BASH_SOURCE[0]` with the legacy
`$0` supported by sh, but otherwise it seems to still work.
Many non-Linux platforms do not ship with bash out-of-the-box (and as a
shell, I don't think we need to encourage the further proliferation of
bash ;-), this lets fish build on a clean install of FreeBSD, which does
not have bash.
There really is no need to
- Timeout just because the _first_ character was a control character
- Timeout because of any control character other than escape
The reason to timeout because the '\e' sequence can appear by itself (signifying
pressing the escape key) and still make
sense - e.g. vi-mode has it bound to a rather important function!
But a \c can't appear by itself, so we can just block.
This allows binding sequences like \cx\ce and inputting them at a
leisurely pace rather than the frantic escape_timeout one.
It should also improve sequences that _include_ escape somewhere else.
E.g. something like a\eb ("a, then alt+b") should now time out for the "\eb" part,
allowing users to bind a\e ("a, then escape") to something else. Why you'd want to do
that, I have no idea. But it's more consistent, and that's nice!
For regex-mode, this should be enough to read NUL-delimited strings to act on, but not
quite patterns and replacements.
Glob-mode requires more work - it uses wcscmp internally, which is unsuitable.
Also the various styles have one function each with barely any
difference - mostly passing the corresponding STYLE argument.
Pack them into one function for escape and one for unescape to save
about 100 lines.
We're now actually handling wchar_t here, so comparing the 0x80 bit
would break for UTF-16, causing ASCII false-positives.
Also simplifies a bit, since we no longer need a second variable.
printf 'a\0b' | string length
used to print "1". Now it prints "3".
Note that this switches to using C++'s std::string::length, which
might give differing results.
Under FreeBSD, as annoying as it is, switches must directly follow the
command or subcommand in question, and cannot come after actual payload
argument. Calling `zpool get all -H` instead of `zpool get -H all`
caused error messages to be spewed to the console under FreeBSD when
simply completing `zfs <TAB>`, this should fix that. The change should
also be compatible with other operating systems (namely Linux) that
don't have this requirement, as they (generally) allow arguments to come
before _or_ after the primary non-switch argument (though I do not have
access to a zfs-enabled Linux machine to test this).
Previously, trying to complete a token with any of these
expansion-related characters would cause the completion to return no
results, as it would emit expanded values which weren't matched by the
autocompleter.
Only the first non-switch parameter to python must be a .py file, but
everything thereafter is "just another argument". This enables file
completions for 2nd+ arguments.
Akin to __fish_complete_suffix, __fish_complete_directories now attempts
to complete the current commandline token if no token is explicitly
passed in as an argument.
The prompt is a fallback that is overridden via a function file
anyway.
Do that with the title as well, so we can use just builtins.
This removes error messages when $fish_function_path is borked.

Turns out that `make -pn` actually takes a while - about 300ms on
fish's makefile.
That's quite a bit of time just to throw away the output and use the
exit code.
So we just check for "GNU" in the version string.
It would be nice to just _do_ the completion and fall back on the
BSD-style if it doesn't work, but that is tricky to do with the pipe
to `awk` - the awk expression actually does not fail if `make` does
not print output.
And I don't know enough about awk to change that.
While this is a bit faster (mostly because it needs less processing on fish's side),
it lacks the neat description bit and the ":/" stuff doesn't work.
The boost is also not large in absolute terms (a few milliseconds).
This reverts commit 1f8e4dad9f.
This uses the same logic that git uses to determine the satus of files
and doesn't require any parsing on our end. Brings in support for
relative paths (such as `git add ../f<TAB>`). Should be faster and more
reliable than manually parsing porcelain status.
This doesn't support as many cases as the old `__git_ls_files` function
did (e.g. `renamed` is not supported, nor is `added`), both of which
_can_ be implemented on top of the new logic - but neither of which were
actually being used, anyway.
Usefulness is decreased by #4970, speed still bottlenecked by #4969.
cc @faho
This is based on what the official git completions do, and it's quite
fast.
Also only complete files after a "--" separator for `checkout`.
Fixes#4858.
This is much quicker - on the order of 100ms vs 50ms.
We shorten to 10 characters, which is statistically suitable - 3 out
of 600k commits in the linux kernel need 11 characters.
Turns out the segfaults we've been getting in our tests are because we set $TERM to "dumb".
So we only clear the line if the terminal isn't dumb.
This reverts commit 745a88f2f6.
Fixes#2320.
One key use of process expansion, used in currently-shipped code, is for running a function on
current shell exit.
Restore the use of %self as a valid argument (and add `self`) and document this change.
(faho: Remove bare "self")
For usage in completion scripts.
Unlike `__fish_is_first_token` (which is probably not correctly named),
`__fish_is_first_arg` returns true regardless of whether existing tokens start with `-`
or not, to be used when an arg cannot be used with any other argument.
`__fish_prev_arg_in` is similar to `__fish_seen_...` but it explicitly
tests the preceding token only, for arguments that take only a single
parameter.
This enables users to opt in (or out) of specific features by setting
the fish_features environment variable.
For example `set -U fish_features stderr-nocaret` to opt into removing the
caret redirection.
This partially reverts 5b489ca30f, with
carets acting as redirections unless the stderr-nocaret flag is set.
This flag is off by default but may be enabled on the command line:
fish --features stderr-nocaret
This introduces a new command line option --features which can be used for
enabling or disabling features for a particular fish session.
Examples:
fish --features stderr-nocaret
fish --features 3.0,no-stderr-nocaret
fish --features all
Note that the feature set cannot be changed in an existing session.
This teaches the status command to work with features.
'status features' will show a table listing all known features and whether
they are currently on or off.
`status test-feature` will test an individual feature, setting the exit status to
0 if the feature is on, 1 if off, 2 if unknown.
This introduces a new type features_t that exposes feature flags. The intent
is to allow a deprecation/incremental adoption path. This is not a general
purpose configuration mechanism, but instead allows for compatibility during
the transition as features are added/removed.
Each feature has a user-presentable short name and a short description. Their
values are tracked in a struct features_t.
We start with one feature stderr_nocaret, but it's not hooked up yet.
As it turns out, for some terminals backspace is \b but only when
preceded by \e.
All this makes about as much sense as the english language.
Fixes#4955.
This was done in share/config.fish, but leads to surprising results if
that isn't read - e.g. because someone just built fish in the git
directory to test it without installing.
It's also not something that is any more or less complicated.
For compatibility, keep it in config.fish as well for the time being.
The previous completion generation was broken for several reasons:
* ./foo would break detection of suffix due to the leading . being
interpreted an extension marker,
* ./foo would be completed as foo, which would be excluded from
matching inrcomplete.cpp
Using `git for-each-ref` both simplifies the code (no need to deal
with detached heads anymore) and speeds it up.
With 1600 branches, the time goes from ~48ms to ~16ms.
- fix capitalization
- shorten descriptions
- implement subcommand shortcuts
- add arg completion for 'limit' and 'depth' switches
- improve arg completion for list subcommand in case of -p switch
bower was calling `__fish_should_complete_args`, the old name for
`__fish_should_complete_switches.`
yarn was parsing bower.json instead of package.json.
To be used by completions to directly determine whether it is either
possible or preferable to complete a switch (instead of a subcommand),
(presuming that switches must come before subcommands).
* __fish_can_complete_switches: we are in a position where a switch may
be placed.
* __fish_should_complete_switches: we're in a position to accept a
switch and the current token starts with `-` so we have no choice but
to do so.
Selectively reverts 156d4fb9b9.
`all-the-package-names` is still used to generate completions for `npm`
if it is installed, but it is not manually installed nor updated. It is
now the user's responsibility to do both, and it must be installed
globally.
`npm search` was _way_ too slow to be used for dynamic completions, so
using a cached list of all avaialable NPM packages to match against.
This is a bit brave for a fish completion, but the npm package
`all-the-package-names` has a list of, well, all the package names
avaialable for installation via the default npm registry. Installing a
copy locally to $HOME/.cache/fish/npm_completions and using that to
search for packages matching the tokenized command line.
Preference would be to call `__update_atpm` in the background, but that
emits an ugly "job has completed" message..
Should also use this for completions for `yarn add`.
Instead, attempt to extract the message that _would_ be displayed on
execution of `./configure --help` by relying on some markers present in
autoconf-generated configure files.
As measured with 'hyperfine' on a laptop running in reduced frequency
power savings mode, `fish -c "__fish_parse_configure ./configure"`
runtime dropped from ~1.25s to ~0.8ms, which is inline with the
previously observed ~350ms execution time for `./configure --help`.
fish's own startup time is approximately 75ms before parsing begins.
Still very slow, but much better.
This relies on the new `read --line/-L` support as an entire parser for
the output of `./configure --help` was written in fishscript. Also
doesn't work without 72f32e6d8a7905b064680ec4b578c41dea62bf84.
The completion script is slow... a function of both the autotools
configure script itself being written in a shell script combined with a
fishscript output parser.
fish's own `./configure --help` takes around 350ms to execute, while
`__fish_parse_configure ./configure` (which runs that behind the scenes)
takes around 660ms to run, all-in-all - a not insignificant overhead.
Output can be cached (based off of ./configure hash or mtime) in the
future if this is a big deal.
complete.cpp strips the path from commands before parsing for
completions, meaning that when we called `path_get_path()` against
`cmd`, if `./cmd` were typed in at the command line but `cmd` does not
exist in the PATH, then the command would incorrectly be flagged as not
present and the completions would be skipped.
This is also faster when an absolute/relative path is used for a
command, as we now search with the original path which skips searching
PATH directories unnecessarily.
Found when debugging why completions for `./configure` wouldn't work.
`read` with IFS empty was expected to set all parameters after the first
n filled variables to an empty string, but that was inconsistent with
the behavior of `read` everywhere else.
I'm not sure why fish differed from the spec with regards to the
behavior in the event of an empty IFS: we eschew IFS where possible, yet
here we adopt non-standard behavior splitting on every (unicode)
character instead of not splitting at all with IFS empty. We still do
that, but now the unset variables are treated as they normally would be,
i.e. cleared and not set to an empty string (which is what an empty
value between two IFS separators would contain).
The default completions that autojump ships with for fish are broken
(emitting output like "1\___\#...") as they use hackes to work around
the previous lack of `complete -k`. The history-based autojump
completions fully replace it.
The job expansion wrapper was swallowing `-n` (and presumably `-e` and
others) when that was the literal argument we needed to emit. Using
`printf %s ...` instead.
This brings back expansion of `%n` where `n` is a job id, but not as a
general parser syntax. This makes `jobs -p %n` work, which can be used
as part of the job control command chain, i.e.
```
cat &
fg (jobs -p %1)
```
fg/bg/wait can either be wrapped in a function to call `jobs -p` for
`%n` arguments, or they can be updated to take `%n` arguments
themselves.
The order of this list does not need to be strictly maintained any
longer.
Benchmarked with `hyperfine` as follows, where `bench1` is the existing
approach of binary search and `bench2` is the new unordered_set code,
(executed under bash because fish would always return non-zero). The
benchmark code checks each argv to see if it is a builtin keyword (both
return the same result):
```
hyperfine './bench1 $(shuf /usr/share/dict/words)' './bench2 $(shuf /usr/share/dict/words)'
Benchmark #1: ./bench1 $(shuf /usr/share/dict/words)
Time (mean ± σ): 68.4 ms ± 3.0 ms [User: 28.8 ms, System: 38.9 ms]
Range (min … max): 60.4 ms … 75.4 ms
Benchmark #2: ./bench2 $(shuf /usr/share/dict/words)
Time (mean ± σ): 61.4 ms ± 2.3 ms [User: 23.1 ms, System: 39.8 ms]
Range (min … max): 58.1 ms … 67.1 ms
Summary
'./bench2 $(shuf /usr/share/dict/words)' ran
1.11x faster than './bench1 $(shuf /usr/share/dict/words)'
```
Now the description includes the variable scope, `set [-e] -[Ugl]`
completions only provide variables matching that scope, and completions
that shouldn't be modified are hidden from the user. Completions that
are often modified but rarely unset (`fish_*` variables) are omitted
from `set -e` completions.
A new helper function `__fish_seen_argument` has been added that makes
it easy to only provied completions for a specific flag.
Launch `cmd.exe /c "start URL"` under WSL for both `fish_config` and
`help`. This works around #4299 but does not address the underlying
issue (#1132).
Prior to this fix, the fish universal variables file claimed that
changes to it would be overwritten. This no longer true and has not
been true for a long time. Remove that warning.
This switches the universal variables file from a machine-specific
name to the fixed '.config/fish/fish_universal_variables'. The old file
name is migrated if necessary.
Fixes#1912
This removes the caret as a shorthand for redirecting stderr.
Note that stderr may be redirected to a file via 2>/some/path...
and may be redirected with a pipe via 2>|.
Fixes#4394
The previous commit caused the tests to fail since env_remove() was
returning a blanket `!0` when a variable couldn't be unset because it
didn't exist in the first place. This caused the wrong message to be
emitted since the code clashed with a return code for `env_set()`.
Added `ENV_NOT_FOUND` to signify that the variable requested unset
didn't exist in the first place, but _not_ printing the error message
currently so as not to break existing behavior before checking if this
is something we want.
Variables set in if and while conditions are in the enclosing block, not
the if/while statement block. For example:
if set -l var (somecommand) ; end
echo $var
will now work as expected.
Fixes#4820. Fixes#1212.
fish reads paths out of /etc/paths.d. Prior to adbaddf it did
this on every shell invocation; with adbaddf it does so on only login
shells. This change wasn't justified so let's revert this behavior.
Currently, there are two possibilities for holes in the background:
- When there are two candidates with the same meaning (a long and a
short option or two candidates with the same description)
- When a candidate does not have a description (meaning the color
won't continue after it)
This changes both so the background just goes on.
In addition, it avoids making the background multiple times.
Fixes#4866.
The official fish documentation makes no mention of how `string split`
treats empty tokens, e.g. splitting 'key1##key2' on '#' or (more
confusingly) splitting '/path' on '/'. With this commit, `string split`
now has an option to exclude zero-length substrings from the resulting
array with a new `--no-empty/-n`. The default behavior of preserving
empty entries is kept so as to avoid breakage.
The two unicode glyphs used to represent missing new lines and redacted
characters for secure entry are both not present in the glyph tables of
the default font under Windows (Consolas and Lucida Console), use an
alternative glyph instead.
The "return" symbol is replaced with a pilcrow (¶) and the "redacted
character" symbol is replaced with a bullet (•). Both of these are
well-defined in almost all fonts as they're very old symbols. This
change only takes place if -DWSL is supplied by the build toolchain.
Note: this means a Windows SSH client connecting to a fish remote
instance on a non-Windows machine will still use the (unavailable)
default glyphs instead.
(and /etc/paths.d/*)
Do so by emulating the behavior of /usr/libexec/path_helper for login
shells, matching the behavior in /etc/profile.
Also add a path_helper command to reproduce the behavior of
/usr/libexec/path_helper for fish.
This also handles setting MANPATH if necessary.

On my system, this would fix#4306.
The newly added `:` command is implemented as a function (to avoid
increasing complexity by making it a builtin), but it is saved to a path
that does not match its filename (since its name is somewhat of a
special character that might cause problems during installation).
Directly probing the `colon` function for autoload causes `:` to be
correctly loaded, so doing just that after function paths are loaded
upon startup.
This is a hack since the CPP code shouldn't really be aware of
individual functions, perhaps there is a better way of doing this.

- Cache translations instead of calling `gettext` once per file
- Only do the ":/" thing if the file isn't in $PWD/**
For a git repo created like
```fish
git init
touch a(seq 0 1000)b
```
this changes the time from about 2s to 0.3s.
`git rm --cached` is often used to delete a file that no longer exists
in the working tree but remains in git's index. `git ls-files` will list
files that are in the HEAD, which is exactly what we want. Local files
not in `HEAD` can't be deleted from git anyway.
Line continuations (i.e. escaped new lines) now make sense again. With
the smart pipe support (pipes continue on to next line) recently added,
this hack to have continuations ignore comments makes no sense.
This is valid code:
```fish
echo hello |
# comment here
tr -d 'l'
```
this isn't:
```fish
echo hello | \
# comment here
tr -d 'l'
```

The tool subcommand had a "-f" flag to disallow file completions which is wrong: most of the tools there require a file/directory argument.
Since we're here, also limit "go tool compile" to only match Go source files.
From the discussion in #3802, handling spaces within braces more
gracefully. Leading and trailing whitespace that isn't quoted or escaped
is stripped, whitespace in the middle is preserved. Any whitespace
encountered within expansion tokens is treated as a single space,
similar to how programming languages that don't hard break tokens/quotes
on line endings would.
cmake can (and should) be used to invoke the build/install command,
instead of directly calling `ninja` or `make`, via the `--build DIR
[--target TARGET]` syntax.
This will use the native BSD bmake build system instead of the previous
hack which spawned an instance of `gmake` (GNU Make) if installed to
perform the build.
This addresses the discussion regarding the dependency on `hostname` and
the addition of a `$hostname` variable to replace it.
`$hostname` is a read-only, GLOBAL_ENV, non-electrified, lowercased,
non-exported variable that is read once at the start of a fish session.
The finer points of this can be debated endlessly, but this is a shared
starting point that any changes can build on (ref #4422).
Regarding performance: @krader1961 brought up some good points in #4422
regarding potential DNS timeouts (but they really don't apply except if
the host name is not hardcoded in resolv.conf, which quickly manifests
with a cascade of errors on most *nix systems in all cases), but note
that gethostname() was already being called by fish so that would be
more of a future optimization than a "must" at this point.
The value is not electrified or tied and is read-only. It isn't cached
in the get_hostname_identifier() function as the ENV_GLOBAL $hostname
will cache it for its duration.
The behavior of `gethostname` in case of an insufficient buffer is
library and version dependent. Work around this by using a big enough
buffer then truncating the output to our desired max length.
The 0th index of the array was tested inside the loop instead of just
once outside it.
Also explain `input_mapping_is_match` control code behavior and
reasoning and simplify control flow.
Removed misleading statement about read requiring an argument, as the
note about read's new behavior when no arguments are provided covers
that and is less confusing.
In similar vein to how fish_default_key_bindings works, parameters
passed to the function are automatically passed to bind upstream.
Additionally, -s is automatically added if no parameters had been
specified to prevent startup error messages. See 46d1334.
Closes#4494
Drops the % notation for process expansion. The existing notation was a
mess and expanded jobs, process ids, and process names via dark magic.
With this change, % is no longer a special character and can be used
unescaped with impunity.
The variables %self and %last, referring to fish's own pid and the pid
of the last backgrounded job respectively, have been replaced with $pid
and $last_pid. These are read-only variables, protected against being
redefined by the user.
Author's note: I would have personally preferred $fish_pid instead of
$pid but since we debated changing $version to $fish_version and then
reverted that change (with much acrimony), it makes no sense to break
with that precedent here. Additionally, $fish_last_pid is quite wordy.
Closes#4230. Closes#1202.
When number is infinite, not a number, larger than LONG_MAX or smaller

This allows prompts to react to $COLUMNS by e.g. omitting some parts.

If the head is not a valid, existent command, do not load and run custom
completion sources. This applies to both the autosuggestion provider and
manual user completions. File-based completions will still be offered.
Supersedes #4782 and #4783. Closes#4783. Closes#4782. Closes#2365.
This promotes "and" and "or" from a type of statement to "job
decorators," as a possible prefix on a job. The point is to rationalize
how they interact with && and ||.
In the new world 'and' and 'or' apply to a entire job conjunction, i.e.
they have "lower precedence." Example:
if [ $age -ge 0 ] && [ $age -le 18 ]
or [ $age -ge 75 ] && [ $age -le 100 ]
echo "Child or senior"
end
This fixes a variety of issues related to building the documentation
with CMake. In particular it cleans up the dependency management and
fixes some issues where the documentation build was using generated
files from the source directory.
Now parses package.json and uses results to provide a list of possible
completions to `yarn remove`. There may be other subcommands that could
benefit from this.
Could have parsed yarn output, but yarn is slow and packages.json format
is generally standard since it's machine-generated json.
Can be used to retrieve a list of parent paths, useful for searching
ancestors recursively via their absolute paths. Paths are returned from
deepest to shallowest, starting from the path passed in. Paths are not
validated for performance reasons. (Usually the input to
__fish_parent_directories would be (pwd) or (dir $file).)
This should speed things up on slower PCs given that the vast majority
of shell commands are simple jobs consisting of a single command without
any pipelines, in which case there's no need for a keepalive process at
all. Applies to WSL only.
As a temporary workaround for the behavior described in
Microsoft/WSL#2997 wherein WSL does not correctly assign the spawned
child its own PID as its PGID, explicitly set the PGID for the newly
spawned process.
fish's cmake install routines were attempting to create system
directories that already existed, an operation for which the permissions
to do so may not be available (e.g. /usr/local/share/pkgconfig)
This commit first checks if a directory exists before creating it.
This replaces muparser with tinyexpr, which
- Saves about 4000 lines
- Removes functionality we do not use, making it so we can document _all_ of it
- Should be more palatable to distributions
This now reports "TOO_MANY_ARGS" instead of no error (and triggering
an assertion).
We might want to add a new error type or report the missing operator
before, but this is okay for now.
This turns a bunch of ifs on their heads.
We often see this pattern in te:
```c
if (s->type != SOME_TYPE) {
// error handling
} else {
// normal code
}
```
Only, since we want to return the first error, we do
```c
if (s->type == SOME_TYPE) {
// normal code
} else if (s->type != TOK_ERROR) {
// Add a new error - if it already has type error
// this should already be handled.
}
```
One big issue is the comma operator, that means arity-1 functions can
take an arbitrary number of arguments. E.g.
```fish
math "sin(5,9)"
```
will return the value of sin for _9_, since this is read as "5 COMMA
9".
We no longer use muparser, but tinyexpr.
tinyexpr does not have:
- "Statistical functions" like min, max, avg
- Multiple expressions separated with ","

This enables some limited use of arguments for wrapping completions. The
simplest example is that complete gco -w 'git checkout' now works like
you would want: `gco <tab>` now invokes git's completions with the
`checkout` argument prepended.
Fixes#1976
Previously, in
ls ^a bcd
(with "^" as the cursor), kill-word would delete the "a" and then go
on, remove the space and the "bcd".
With this, it will only kill the "a".
Fixes#4747.
Homebrew and other systems set the path for the extra completion,
function and configuration directories outside the writeable prefix.
Mirror the autotools build in trying to create these directories, but
not causing the whole install to fail if this operation in unsuccessful.
This is part of an effort to improve fish's Unicode handling. This commit
attempts to grapple with the fact that, certain characters (principally
emoji) were considered to have a wcwidth of 1 in Unicode 8, but a width of
2 in Unicode 9.
The system wcwidth() here cannot be trusted; terminal emulators do not
respect it. iTerm2 even allows this to be set in preferences.
This commit introduces a new function is_width_2_in_Uni9_but_1_in_Uni8() to
detect characters of version-ambiguous width. For these characters, it
returns a width guessed based on the value of TERM_PROGRAM and
TERM_VERSION, defaulting to 1. This value can be overridden by setting the
value of a new variable fish_emoji_width (presumably either to 1 or 2).
Fixes#4539, #2652.
`argparse`, `read`, `set`, `status`, `test` and `[` now can't be used
as function names anymore.
This is because (except for `test` and `[`) there is no way to wrap these properly, so any
function called that will be broken anyway.
For `test` (and `[`), there is nothing that can be added and there
have been confused users who created a function that then broke
everything.
Fixes#3000.
Prior to this fix, each redirection type was a separate token_type.
Unify these under a single type TOK_REDIRECT and break the redirection
type out into a new sub-type redirection_type_t.
The custom command for fish.pc had a dependency on FBVF, but it appears
that the relative path to FBVF was incorrect and with CMake 3.10.1 under
FreeBSD this was consistently causing the build to fail if
../build_tools/git_version_gen.sh hadn't (coincidentally, I think?)
already run.
Explicitly set the dependency path for FBVF to the binary directory.
The custom command for fish.pc had a dependency on FBVF, but there was

Prior to this the tokenizer ran "one ahead", where tokenizer_t::next()
would in fact return the last-parsed token. Switch to parsing on demand
instead of running one ahead; this is simpler and prepares for tokenizer
changes.
Turns out the process-exit is only ever used in conjunction with
`%self`. Make that explicit by just adding a new "fish_exit" event,
and deprecate the general process-exit machinery.
Fixes#4700.
The previous attempt to support newlines after pipes changed the lexer to
swallow newlines after encountering a pipe. This has two problems that are
difficult to fix:
1. comments cannot be placed after the pipe
2. fish_indent won't know about the newlines, so it will erase them
Address these problems by removing the lexer behavior, and replacing it
with a new parser symbol "optional_newlines" allowing the newlines to be
reflected directly in the fish grammar.
Prior to this fix, if you attempt to complete from inside a quote and the
completion contained an entity that cannot be represented inside quotes
(i.e. \n \r \t \b), the result would be a broken mess of quotes. Rewrite
the implementation so that it exits the quotes, emits the correct unquoted
escape, and then re-enters the quotes.
Properly escape literal tildes in tab completion results. Currently we
always escape tildes in unquoted arguments; in the future we may escape
only leading tildes.
Fixes#2274
Prior to this fix, autoloads like function and completion autoloads
would check their path variable (like fish_function_path) on every
autoload request. Switch to invalidating it in response to the variable
changing.
This improves time on a microbenchmark:
for i in (seq 50000)
setenv test_env val$i
end
from ~11 seconds to ~6.5 seconds.
The job control functions were a bit messy, in particular
`set_child_group`'s name would imply that all it does is set the child
group, but in reality it used to set the child group (via `setpgid`),
set the job's pgrp if it hasn't been set, and possibly assign control of
the terminal to the newly-created job.
These have been split into separate functions. Now `set_child_group`
does just (and only) that, `maybe_assign_terminal` might assign the
terminal to the new pgrp, and `on_process_created` is used to set the
job properties the first time an external process is created. This might
also speed things up (but probably not noticeably) as there are no more
repeated calls to `getpgrp()` if JOB_CONTROL is not set.
Additionally, this closes#4715 by no longer unconditionally calling
`setpgid` on all new processes, including those created by `posix_spawn`
which does not need this since the child's pgrep is set at in the
arguments to that API call.
This merges a set of changes that switch functions from executing source
to executing an already parsed tree (the same tree used when the function
is defined). This speeds up function execution, reduces memory usage, and
avoids annoying double parsing.
A simple microbenchmark of function execution:
for i in (seq 10000)
setenv test_env val$i
end
time improves from 1.63 to 1.32 seconds.
This switches function execution from the function's source code to
its stored node and pstree. This means we no longer have to re-parse
the function every time we execute it.
The idea is that we can return the shared pointer directly, avoiding
lots of annoying little getter functions that each need to take locks.
It also helps to pull together the data structures used to initialize
functions versus store them.
This concerns block nodes with redirections, like
begin ... end | grep ...
Prior to this fix, we passed in a pointer to the node. Switch to passing
in the tnode and parsed source ref. This improves type safety and better
aligns with the function-node plans.
Prior to this fix, functions stored a string representation of their
contents. Switch them to storing a parsed source reference and the
tnode of the contents. This is part of an effort to avoid reparsing
a function's contents every time it executes.
Add a fish-specific wrapper around std::mutex that records whether it is
locked in a bool. This is to make ASSERT_IS_LOCKED() simpler (it can just
check the boolean instead of relying on try_lock) which will make Coverity
Scan happier.
Some details: Coverity Scan was complaining about an apparent double-unlock
because it's unaware of the semantics of try_lock(). Specifically fish
asserts that a lock is locked by asserting that try_lock fails; if it
succeeds fish prints an error and then unlocks the lock (so as not to leave
it locked). This unlock is of course correct, but it confused Coverity Scan.
Use wcstring/string instead of a character array. The variable
`term_env` was not being freed before the function exited.
Fixes defect 7520324 in coverity scan.
This merges a sequence of commits that undoes the SIGCONT orchestration
used for WSL compatibility. The essential problem is this: In Unix and
Linux, exited processes are still valid until it is reaped; you can, say,
make an exited process a group leader. But in Windows, when a process
exits, it is gone, and most syscalls (other than, say, waitpid) fail for
it. This is known as the WSL Rick Grimes problem.
This manifests as various race conditions in WSL between a parent operating
on a child, and the child exiting. Prior to this merge, these were
addressed by having the child wait for the parent to send it a SIGCONT.
This resolved the race.
This merge removes this approach and replaces it with a simpler mechanism
that leverages the existing keepalive machinery. A keepalive process is
created for all platforms when we have a pipeline that contains a builtin.
This is necessary to keep the whole process group alive. The fix is, on
WSL, we always create a keepalive and make it the group leader. Because the
keepalive does not call exec and its lifetime is bound to a C++ stack
frame, it is easy to resolve the race.
This improves performance a bit (except on WSL), since child processes no
longer have to synchronize with the parent process, but the big win is
simplicity. This removes the notion of the single global stopped child, of
which there could only be one, and which had be resumed at the right
time(s), of which there were several.
keepalive processes are typically killed by the main shell process.
However if the main shell exits the keepalive may linger. In WSL
keepalives are used more often, and the lingering keepalives are both
leaks and prevent the tests from finishing.
Have keepalives poll for their parent process ID and exit when it
changes, so they can clean themselves up. The polling frequency can be
low.
Have WSL use a keepalive whenever the first process is external.
This works around the fact that WSL prohibits setting an exited
process as the group leader.

When the pager wants to use the full screen to show many options, it reserves
space at the top to see the command. Previously it pretended the command was a
prompt and engaged the prompt layout mechanism to compute these lines. Instead
let's juts count newlines since escape sequences within commands are very rare.
There were several issues with the way that the include tests for curses.h
were being done that were ultimately causing fish to use the headers from
ncurses but link against curses on platforms that provide an actual
libcurses.so that isn't just a symlink to libncurses.so
In particular, the old code was first testing for curses's cureses.h and then
falling back to libncurses's implementation of the same - but that logic was
reversed when it came to including term.h, in which case it was testing for
the ncurses term.h and falling back to the curses.h header. Long story short,
while cmake will link against libcurses.so if both libcurses.so and
libncurses.so are present (unless CURSES_NEED_NCURSES evaluates to TRUE, but
that makes ncurses a hard requirement), but we were brining in some of the
defines from the ncurses headers, causing SIGSEGV panics when fish ultimately
tried to access variables that weren't exported or were mapped to undefined
areas of memory in the other library.
Additionally it is an error to include termios.h prior to including the plain
Jane curses.h (not ncurses/curses.h), causing errors about unimplemented types
SGTTY/chtype. So far as I can tell, both curses.h and ncurses/curses.h pull in
termios.h themselves so it shouldn't even be necessary to manually include it,
but I have just moved its #include below that of curses.h
The non-ncurses version of term.h requires that curses.h be first
included. Only very recent versions of CMake include a LANGUAGE
option to CHECK_INCLUDE_FILES, so we aren't using it and specifying
CXX here..
This never worked properly (since a branch that only exists locally
would also be offered) and is dog-slow.
When we come up with a better way to do it we can readd it.
When git prints a path like "share/completions/git.fish", that's
relative to the root of the repo. So we need to either remove
everything from the $PWD (if the path is inside the $PWD), or prepend
a ":/", which is git-speak for "relative to the root".
This was removed by mistake in the recent switch to `git status`.
Fixes#4688.
This special cases expansion of $history variables, so that slicing

Prior to this fix, if the user typed normal characters while the
completion pager was shown, it would begin searching. This feature was
not well liked, so we are going to instead just append the characters as
normal and disable paging. Control-S can be used to toggle the search
field.

CheckFunctionExists checks for C linkage only, and recommends the use of
CheckSymbolExists in the documentation. This improves the detection of
C++ features, as opposed to C features.

`-v` is a non-standard GNU-only extension to `awk`, its usage in the

This merges a set of changes to improve the type safety of the fish parse
tree, in preparation for modifying fish grammar in 3.0. It expresses the
fish grammar via a new file parse_grammar.h. It then adds a new type
tnode_t parametrized on grammar elements, with typesafe access to its
children.
The idea here is to make it easy to change the fish grammar, and have the
compiler report code locations that must to be updated.

Some of these were failing on Travis quite often, and this is probably
the result of too tight a window.

This attempted to modify RPATH when building with Ninja, but the CMake if
statement wasn't actually valid so this wasn't doing anything. This check
couldn't really be tested - let's make sure not to accumulate build system
rules that we don't understand.
Some dotfile users like to add directories to PATH that point at
non-existent directories (because those directories exist on other
machines). Stop warning in that case, unless those directories contain
a colon, in which case it's probably a user error.
Changed cd completion to differentiate between cd autosuggest and cd tab
completion. cd autosuggest will find deepest unique hierarchy and cd tab
completion will not.
Issue #4402
This untangles the CMake versioning issues (I hope) as discussed in #4626.
Note most of the advice found on the Internet about how to inject git
versions into CMake is just wrong.
The behavior we want is to unconditionally run the script
build_tools/git_version_gen.sh at build time (i.e. when you invoke ninja or
make, and not when you invoke cmake, which is build system generation time).
This script is careful to only update the FISH-BUILD-VERSION-FILE if the
contents have changed, to avoid spurious rebuilding dependencies of
FISH-BUILD-VERSION-FILE. Assuming the git version hasn't changed, the script
will run, but not update FISH-BUILD-VERSION-FILE, and therefore
fish_version.o will not have to be rebuilt.
This might normally rebuild more than is necessary even if the timestamp is
not updated, because ninja computes the dependency chain ahead of time. But
Ninja also supports the 'restat' option for just this case, and CMake is rad
and exposes this via BYPRODUCTS. So mark FISH-BUILD-VERSION-FILE as a
byproduct and make the script always update a dummy file
(fish-build-version-witness.txt). Note this is the use case for which
BYPRODUCTS is designed.
We also have fish_version.cpp #include "FISH-BUILD-VERSION-FILE", and do a
semi-silly thing and make FISH-BUILD-VERSION-FILE valid C++ (so there's just
one version file). This means we have to filter out the quotes in other
cases..
This reverts commit 25839b8c36.
This was an attempt to simplify the version generation, but it
computed the version at build sytem generation time rather than
at build time, requiring another run of CMake to update it.
Correctly generate FISH_BUILD_VERSION for use in fish_version.h/cpp and
fish.pc to allow `fish --version` and `echo $version` to work again.
Not needing the same convoluted measures used by Makefile builds to
prevent the regeneration of the fish version file when it hasn't
changed.
Purposely created a new `cmake_git_version_gen.sh` file so that the old
`git_version_gen.sh` remains compatible with the existing Makefile build
script. Same reason why `fish.pc.in` was not modified to use a lowercase
variable name to match the CMAKE variable of the same name.
Closes#4626
If `doxygen` isn't installed, the man files aren't built and that's
quite ok. The cmake `install` target was presuming the man files would
always be present and the install stage was failing if they weren't
built.
CMake originally links build artifacts/results so that they can run from
the target directory. As a result, it must first relink the binaries
before installation so that they can run from the installation target
directory, typically done in the preinstall stage. Ninja does not have a
preinstall stage, and the CMake code that generates the build.ninja file
does not take that into account [0].
Setting `CMAKE_BUILD_WITH_INSTALL_RPATH` [1] makes it originally link
the files with the RPATH settings for the final destination directory,
meaning that relinking is no longer needed.
Technically setting the RPATH is not required for the `fish` binary as
we do not have any relative dependencies; this is the output of
`ldd ./build/fish`:
```
linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007ffffacdc000)

```
However, since the bug only exists when the build generator is set to
ninja, the workaround is only activated for that specific build

`git push REMOTE :BRANCH` deletes remote branch BRANCH from remote
REMOTE. Should only kick in when the pattern matches, hopefully didn't
break anything else!
A large portion of time was spent constructing strings and passing
them to debug(). Turn debug into a macro so that the strings are only
constructed if they're going to be printed.
The psub tests create a fifo and launch a background job to write to it.
However fifos have this obnoxious behavior where opening the file blocks
until both sides are ready. In one of the tests we don't actually read
from the fifo we create, so the background job hangs, and the tests
never complete. Fix this by just reading from the fifo.
This adds a new class arg_iterator_t which encapsulates decisions about
whether to read arguments from stdin or argv. It also migrates the
unread bytes buffer from a static variable to an instance variable.
* Add eopkg support
Add support for eopkg in __fish_print_packages function, and
add new completion eopkg.fish in share/completions
* Sorry for the empty file
* Sorry for the empty file again
* Use builtin function for checking subcommand and options
* Fix description
* Use string function to replace grep and cut
* Add completion for search command
This was caused by it prepending "-s" to argv always,
and later checking $argv[1].
As it turns out, that is kinda superfluous, so we can just add "-s" to
the `bind` calls.
Also adjust the tests so the vi-bindings are enabled via the function,
which would have caught this.
Fixes#4494.
Profiling with callgrind revealed that about 60% of the time in a `something | string match` call
was actually spent in `string_get_arg_stdin()`,
because it was calling `read` one byte at a time.
This makes it read in chunks similar to builtin read.
This increases performance for `getent hosts | string match -v '0.0.0.0*'` from about 300ms to about 30ms (i.e. 90%).
At that point it's _actually_ quicker than `grep`.
To improve performance even more, we'd have to cut down on str2wcstring.
Fixes#4604.
Muparser Exceptectomy
This removes large pieces of muParser that fish does not use, such as its optimizer. It also switches muParser from throwing exceptions to propagating errors explicitly.
This is a very strange design that determines whether initialization
needs to be performed by reassigning a function pointer. A misguided
optimization? Just check explicitly.
Instead of throwing an exception, simply return false. It is too
complicated to thread the error return through this function and
ParserInt is unused by fish anyways.
The optimizer adds a fair amount of complexity in muparser with no
benefit to fish, since fish is not going to use complicated expressions
or cache parsed expressions.
To help remove exception handling, we will need to have a type that
has visibility into both ParserError and value_type. We're going to
put this type in muParserDef.h. Remove the error header and fold its
contents into muParserDef.h.
This was a silly data structure that didn't carry its weight.
Replace it with a wrapper around std::vector that doesn't explicitly
throw exceptions. It's unclear if muparser relied on the exception
throwing behavior of ParserStack, and it seems there's no way to find
out except removing it and seeing what breaks.
The tests pass for what that's worth!
Turns out "__fish_git_staged_files" does the same thing as "__fish_git_modified_files --staged".
Also use "--staged" instead of "--cached", which is a more
understandable synonym.
Many thanks to @thomcc on gitter.
Prior to this fix, a "bare variable" in math like 'x + 1' would be
looked up in the environment, i.e. equivalent to '$x + 1'. This appears
to have been done for performance. However this breaks the orthogonality
of fish; performance is not a sufficient justification to give math this
level of built-in power, especially because the performance of math is
not a bottleneck. The implementation is also ugly.
Remove this feature so that variables must be prefixed with the dollar
sign and undergo normal variable expansion. Reading 'git grep' output
does not show any uses of this in fish functions or completions.
Also added to changelog.
Fixes#4393
Before this change, if a command failed, this was indicated by the "$"
at the end of the prompt turning red.
With this change in place, if a command fails, the exit code of the
failing command is displayed in [square brackets].
Running "cut" multiple times in a loop has an adverse performance
impact on first use, especially on slow systems. Using builtin "read"
for the same purpose is faster and cleaner.
Command name continues twice in man page.
Current version's example:
NAME
andand - conditionally execute a command
Fixed version:
NAME
and - conditionally execute a command
for various completions.
This makes the code a bit nicer, removes one of the
__fish_print_hostnames calls (which are slow) and a sed call, thereby
improving performance by about 33% (600ms to 400ms).
Fixes#4511.
The previous hack used to work around an OS X issue/bug where launching
a URL with a #fragment appended would drop the fragment by using
`osascript` does not seem to work any more. Append the section name as a
query string (in addition to, not instead of #section) and then use some
basic javascript appended to the user doc HTML template to parse that
and jump to the correct section (if the section was dropped).
Closes#4480
fish was indiscriminately calling `rustc -Z help` in the autocompletion
script for `rustc`, but `-Z` (and its `-Z help` output completions) is
only available when using the nightly compiler.
Note that this isn't a perfect fix since if you try to use those command
line options now added to the autocompletions list without using the
nightly toolchain, `rustc` will still throw an error. But at least this
way we don't cause random errors about `-Z` not being available to
appear any time someone tries to use `rustc` from the fish command prompt.
This adds a new library fishlib, which the CMake build builds.
This library is linked by the tests, fish, and fish_indent, so
that object files do not have to be built separately for each
of them.
This adds support for creating the FISH-BUILD-VERSION-FILE in the CMake
build. A FISH-BUILD-VERSION-FILE is created in the CMake directory
and only updated when necessary.
As part of factoring out the documentation building parts of the fish
build, add a new file build_user_doc.sh that builds the user_doc directory.
Invoke it from both the Makefile and CMake build.

that builds the lexicon filter. It is factored out from the Makefile,
and both the Makefile and CMake build invoke it.
E.g. if "foo" is in CDPATH, and both "foo/bar" and "./bar" exist, `cd
bar` will go to ./bar.
The completions described "bar" as going to "foo/bar" ("CDPATH foo").
This fixes it by checking for ./bar's existence.

For some reason on Solaris the previous code was refusing to compile
with an error (regarding the declaration of stdout in the opts struct)
error: declaration of ‘__iob’ as array of references
The obvious guess that it had something to do with the name of the
variable in question proved true; renaming it from `stdout` to
`opts.stdout` allows the build to go through.

It seems that `parse_cmd_opts` does not correctly handle no arguments,

(cherry picked from commit 48797974d3)
No longer using `-` to indicate reading to stdout. Use lack of arguments
as stdout indicator. This prevents mixing of variables with stdout
reading and makes it clear that stdout may not be mixed with delimiters
or array mode.
Added an option to read to stdout via `read -`. While it may seem
useless at first blush, it lets you do things like include
mysql -p(read --silent) ...
Without needing to save to a local variable and then echo it back.
Kicks in when `-` is provided as the variable name to read to. This is
in keeping with the de facto syntax for reading/writing from/to
stdin/stdout instead of a file in, e.g., tar, cat, and other standard
unix utilities.

Closes#4188, #4431, and obviates the original fix for #1155
It was necessary to re-implement builtin_bind as a class in order to
avoid passing around the options array from function to function and
as adding an opts parameter to `get_terminfo_sequence` would require
otps to be passed to all other builtin_bind_ functions so they could, in
turn, pass it to `get_terminfo_sequence`.

Lynx uses a very naïve method of applying styles to HTML elements by
hashing the element type and the class name to generate a map of
hash:style. After the hash is calculated, Lynx does not go back and
check whether or not the actual string values match the LSS properties.

This patch copies the default Lynx stylesheet but removes highlighting
and other styles that would result in unreadable text (due to not enough
contrast with the background color), and if the `help` builtin detects
that the best web browser to use is Lynx, it instructs it to use this
modified stylesheet.

host names and loopback addresses.
Took care of remaining issues preventing fish from building on Solaris.
Mainly caused by some assumptions that certain defines are POSIX when
they are not (`NAME_MAX`).
Moved `NAME_MAX` defines to common.h - for some reason, it was being
defined in a cpp file (`env_universal_common.cpp`) even though it is used
in multiple source files.
Now compiles on Solaris 11 with GNU Make. Still some warnings because
fish was written with GNU getopt in mind and the Solaris version doesn't
use `const char *` but rather just `char *` for getopt values, but it
builds nevertheless.
Assuming this closes#3340

Use \uXXXX consistently for unicode code points
(cherry picked from commit 6b2e84be0e)
Backporting to 2.7.0 branch just to try and keep changes between master
and this branch as minimal as possible.
Drawing prompt in repo with text=auto attribute and mixed line endings in files was spawning crlf conversion warnings to terminal from unsilenced stderr of git diff
A recent discussion involving whether `can_be_encoded()` was broken
caused me to notice that we are inconsistent about whether Unicode code
points are specified using `\xXXXX` or `\uXXXX` notation. Which is
harmless but silly and potentially confusing.
j does not have any "logical" source of completions, but it almost often
called with arguments that have been seen before (since it is used to
jump to favorite/recent directories). We can search the history for
possible completions and use those.
This is an example of the behavior mentioned in #4344 as a possible
enhancement for fish 3.0, where completions can be provided from history
if none are otherwise found.
This flag was only documented for a few weeks before being renamed
`--show-time` and has been deprecated for a long time. Fish 3.0 is a good
opportunity to remove it.
Instead of treating the search term as a literal string to be matched
treat it as a glob. This allows the user to get a more useful set of
results by using the `*` glob character in the search term.
Partial fix for #3136
* Implement `history search --reverse`
It should be possible to have `history search` output ordered oldest to
newest like nearly every other shell including bash, ksh, zsh, and csh.
We can't make this the default because too many people expect the
current behavior. This simply makes it possible for people to define
their own abbreviations or functions that provide behavior they are
likely used to if they are transitioning to fish from another shell.
This also fixes a bug in the `history` function with respect to how it
handles the `-n` / `--max` flag.
Fixes#4354
* Fix comment for format_history_record()

Addresses the main concern of #3830 by preserving the internal ordering
of tag/branch listings generated by git. Fixes mixing of remote and
local branches in completions.
Does not address the concern of having local branches on top, remote
branches after, and tags at the bottom - I don't believe we have that
functionality available to us yet. #361 only implemented sort within a
category of completions, but there is no category "weight" unless I'm
mistaken.
As discussed in #3805, this patch disables assigning fish to its own
process group at startup. This was trialled in #4349 alongside other
pgrp fixes which introduced additional problems, but this particular fix
seems to be OK.
Fixes#3805 and works around Microsoft/BashOnWindows#1653
* Hoist `for` loop control var to enclosing scope
It should be possible to reference the last value assigned to a `for`
loop control var when the loop terminates. This makes it easier to detect
if we broke out of the loop among other things. This change makes fish
`for` loops behave like most other shells.
Fixes#1935
* Remove redundant line
This now includes hosts with custom ports (and other hosts with the
same key), and explicitly excludes negated hosts, those with a
wildcard and those with an `@`-marker (e.g. `@revoked`)
It's also possibly a bit quicker because the ordering is better,
especially for files with many comments.

The type cached_esc_sequences_t caches escape sequences, and is tasked
with finding an escape sequence that prefixes a given string. Before
this fix, it did so by storing the lengths of cached escape sequences,
and searching for substrings of that length. The new implementation
instead stores all cached escape sequences in a sorted vector, and uses
binary search to find the shortest escape sequence that is a prefix of
the input. This is a substantial simplification that also reduces
allocations.
56d9134534 contained an LRU cache plus
changes to the documentation; 95162ef19d
reverted both.
This commit re-adds the documentation changes, which are still correct.
This eliminates the "missing" notion of env_var_t. Instead
env_get returns a maybe_t<env_var_t>, which forces callers to
handle the possibility that the variable is missing.
maybe_t is an implementation of the Maybe/Optional type, allowing
for an optional value to be stored. This will enable a more
principled approach for functions that return values or failure,
such as env_get.
This commit backs out certain optimizations around setting environment
variables, and replaces them with move semantics. env_set accepts a
list, by value, permitting callers to use std::move to transfer
ownership.
Commit f872f25f introduced a freed memory access regression on line 460
of env.cpp, where an environment variable was converted to a temporary

Fixes#4353 (regression in indexing of history contents) and introduces
new unit tests to catch bad $history indexing in the future.
Using bare vars is more efficient because it makes the builtin `math`
expression cache more useful. That's because if you prefix each var with
a dollar-sign then the fish parser expands it before `math` is run.
Something like `math x + 1` can be cached since the expression is the
same each time it is run. But if you do `math $x + 1` and x==1 then you're
effectively executing `math 1 + 1`. And if x==2 the next time then you're
running `math 2 + 1`. Which makes the expression cache much less effective.
This implements an LRU cache of recently seen math expressions. When
executing math inside loops and the like this can provide a 33% decrease
in the time to execute the `math` command.
Remove our `math` function that wraps `bc`. Our math builtin is now good
enough that it can be the default implementation.
Another step in resolving #3157.
We need our `math` builtin to behave like `bc` with respect to rounding
floating point values to integer to avoid breaking to many existing
uses. So when scale is zero round down to the nearest integer.
Another change for #3157.
The MuParser supports the concept of multiple expressions separated by
commas. This implements support for that so that you can do things like
this:
set results (math '1+1, 4*2, 9^2')
This is the second baby step in resolving #3157. Implement a bare minimum
builtin `math` command. This is solely to ensure that fish can be built
and run in the Travis build environments. This is okay since anyone running
`builtin math` today is already getting an error response.
Also, more work is needed to support bare var references, multiple result
values, etc.
First step in fixing issue #3157 is to check-in the source code and hook
it into our build system.
The inclusion of the MuParser source adds the MIT License to those that
apply to fish. Update our documentation to reflect that fact.
The MuParser documentation is at
http://beltoforion.de/article.php?a=muparser. The source was downloaded
from https://github.com/beltoforion/muparser/releases. It is also hosted
on Github, https://github.com/beltoforion/muparser/. I did not download
it from Github because that source contained just a couple of cleanup
changes which don't affect its behavior.
Using a read-only variable like `status` as a for loop control variable
has never worked. But without this change you simply get non-sensical
behavior that leaves you scratching your head in puzzlement. This change
replaces the non-sensical behavior with an explicit error message.
Fixes#4342
Recent changes to switch to unordered sets/maps can cause the order in
which items are returned to be non-deterministic. This change ensures
that the argparse "Mutually exclusive flags" error message to be
deterministic with respect to the order of the interpolated values.
Make setting fish vars more efficient by avoiding creating a
wcstring_list_t for the case where we're setting one value. For the case
where we're passing a list of values swap it with the list in the var
rather than copying it. This makes the benchmark in #4200 approximately
6% faster.
Since we are including XXHash32/64 anyway for the wchar_t* hashing,
we might as well use it.
Use arch-specific hash size and xxhash for all wcstring hashing
Instead of using XXHash64 for all platforms, use the 32-bit version
when running on 32-bit platforms where XXHash64 is significantly slower
than XXHash32 (and the additional precision will not be used).
Additionally, manually specify wcstring_hash as hashing method for
non-const wcstring unordered_set/map instances (the const varieties
don't have an in-library hash and so already use our xxhash-based
specialization when calling std::hash<const wcstring>).

Convert const_string_set_t to std::unordered_set
As it is a readonly-list of raw character pointer strings (not
wcstring), this necessitated the addition of a hashing function since
the C++ standard library does not come with a char pointer hash
function.
To that end, a zlib-licensed [0] port of the excellent, lightweight
XXHash family of 32- and 64-bit hashing algorithms in the form of a C++
header-only include library has been included. XXHash32/64 is pretty
much universally the fastest hashing library for general purpose
applications, and has been thoroughly vetted and is used in countless
open source projects. The single-header version of this library makes it
a lot simpler to include in the fish project, and the license
compatibility with fish' GPLv2 and the zero-lib nature should make it an
easy decision.
std::unordered_set brings a massive speedup as compared to the default
std::set, and the further use of the fast XXHash library to provide the
string hashing should make all forms of string lookups in fish
significantly faster (to a user-noticeable extent).

Updated is_loading to use unordered_set
Per the discussion with @faho in #4332, replaced some custom completion
state detection functions with standard __fish_* functions used in other
completion sources.
(cherry picked from commit f706081ea4)
No longer auto-generated. Everything has been summarized. Supressing
file completions for initial command, providing list of valid initial
commands, filtering --options by subcommand.
(cherry picked from commit 539acd9fc5)
No longer using RAII wrappers around pthread_mutex_t and pthread_cond_t
in favor of the C++11 std::mutex, std::recursive_mutex, and
std::condition_variable data types.
The `react_to_variable_change()` function is called whenever a fish var
is set. Even as a consequence of statements like `for x in a b c`. It is
therefore critical that that function be as fast as possible. Especially
when setting the var doesn't have any side-effects which is true something
like 99.9999% of the time.
This change reduces the overhead of `react_to_variable_change()` to
unmeasurable levels. Making the synthetic benchmark in issue #4341
36% faster.

Internally fish should store vars as a vector of elements. The current

Newer versions of GCC and Clang are not satisfied by a cast to void,
this fix is adapted from glibc's solution.
New wrapper function ignore_result should be used when a function with
explicit _unused_attribute_ wrapper is called whose result will not be
handled.
This reverts commit ee15f1b987.
The test relies on undefined behaviour (checking for errno in the
absence of an error condition) and was broken on OpenBSD.
Closes#4184.
Make the `env_var_t::missing_var()` object a singleton rather than a
dynamically constructed object. This requires some discipline in its use
since C++ doesn't directly support immutable objects. But it is slightly
more efficient and helps identify code that incorrectly mutates `env_var_t`
objects that should not be modified.
It's bugged me forever that the scope is the second arg to `env_get()`
but not `env_set()`. And since I'll be introducing some helper functions
that wrap `env_set()` now is a good time to change the order of its
arguments.
Specifically closes#4313.
Not being as agressive in what we ignore/blacklist, but can be revisited
easily in the future to add more characters to the argument blacklist.
By far the most common problem with universal variables being overridden
by global variables is other values being imported from the environment;
the `set -q; or set -gx` is much more of an edge case.
My previous change to eliminate `class var_entry_t` caused me to notice
that `env_get()` turned a set but empty var into a missing var. Which
is wrong. Fixing that brought to light several other pieces of code that
were wrong as a consequence of the aforementioned bug.

These completions never actually worked and always fell back to the
builtin path completion. But a recent fix means that these now keep the
fallback from happening resulting in no completions for these commands.
Doing `set -U var` when a global named `var` exists can result in
confusing behavior. Try to limit the confusion by improving the warning
we write. Also, only write the warning if interactive.
Fixes#4267
The process_t pointer sent to setup_child_process can actually be 0
without it being failure, as that is what fish sends when `exec` is run
(in the case of INTERNAL_EXEC).
This was causing exec to fail.
There is no more race condition between parent and child with
regards to setting the process groups. Each child sets it for themselves
and then blocks indefinitely until the parent does what it needs to for
them (having waited for them to set their process groups). They are not
SIGCONT'd until the next process in the chain (if any) starts so that
that process can join their process group and open the pipes.
In the last commit, we introduced an indiscriminate if !EXTERNAL check
that unblocks a previously SIGSTOP'd command (if any) to allow the main
loop in exec_job to read from it without deadlocking (since builtins and
functions read directly from input as an optimization, sometimes).
Now only unblocking where a fork will not happen to ensure that if a
builtin ends up forking, that fork'd process is guaranteed to be able to
join the previous process' process group and access its output pipes.
Setting the process group in a fork/exec scenario is a well-documented
race condition in pretty much any job control mechanism [0] [1]. The
Wikipedia article contradicts the glibc article and suggests that the
best approach is for the parent to wait for the child to become the
process group leader, while the glibc article suggests that both should
make it so (which is what fish did previously). However, I'm running
into cases where tcsetpgrp is causing an EPERM error, which it isn't
documented to do except if the session id for the calling process
differs from that of the target process group (which is never the case
in fish since they are all part of the same session), which should cause
a _different_ error (SIGTTOU to be sent to all members of the calling
process' group).
In all cases, this is easily remedied by checking if the process group
in question is already in control of the terimnal. There's still the
off-chance that in the time between we check that and the time that the
command completes that situation may have changed, but the parent
process is supposed to ignore the result of this call if it errors out.
[0]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_group
[1]: https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Launching-Jobs.html
We were having child processes SIGSTOP themselves immediately after
setting their process group and before launching their intended targets,
but they were not necessarily stopped by the time the next command was
being executed (so the opposite of the original race condition where
they might have finished executing by the time the next command came
around), and as a result when we sent them SIGCONT, that could never
reach. Now using waitpid to synchronize the SIGSTOP/SIGCONT between the
two.
If we had a good, unnamed inter-process event/semaphore, we could use
that to have a child process conditionally stop itself if the next
command in the job chain hadn't yet been started / setup, but this is
probably a lot more straightforward and less-confusing, which isn't a
bad thing.
Additionally, there was a bug caused by the fact that the main exec_job
loop actually blocks to read from previous commands in the job if the
current command is a built-in that doesn't need to fork.
With this waitpid code, I was able to finally add the SIGSTOP code to
all the fork'd processes in the main exec_job loop without introducing
deadlocks; it turns out that they should be treated just like the main
EXTERNAL fork, but they tend to execute faster causing the same deadlock
described above to occur more readily.
The only thing I'm not sure about is whether we should execute
unblock_pid undconditionally for all !EXTERNAL commands. It makes more
sense to *only* do that if a blocking read were about to be done in the
main loop, otherwise the original race condition could still appear
(though it is probably mitigated by whatever duration the SIGSTOP lasted
for, even if it is SIGCONT'd before the next command tries to join the
process group).
I hadn't realized that the for loop is called multiple times for a given
"single input" (anything that doesn't include semicolons, etc) to fish,
and so processes were being blocked but blocked_pid was lost by the time
that the next job (which was reading from the last process in the
previous job) came around.
Now using a static variable to store the last blocked PID. AFAICT, this
main job control loop is always executed from the same process and
thread, so this shouldn't need to be wrapped in atomics/mutexes, etc.
This code should be more portable, and certainly cleaner. We are
currently always sending SIGCONT to the last process (if it was part of
a job chain) regardless of whether it called SIGSTOP on itself or not,
which should be fine.
Need to explore whether or not the other forks in src/exec.cpp need to
be SIGSTOP'd on run or only the one that we included in this patch.
I'm not sure if this happens on all platforms, but under WSL with the
existing codebase, processes in the job chain that pipe their
stdout/stderr to the next process in the job could terminate before the
next job started (on fast enough machines for quick enough jobs).
This caused issues like #4235 and possibly #3952, at least for external
commands. What was happening is that the first process was finishing
before the second process was fully set up. fish would then try to
assign (in both the child and the parent) the process group id belonging
to the process group leader to the new process; and if the first process
had already terminated, it would have ended its process group with it as
well before that happened.
I'm not sure if there was already a mechanism in place for ensuring that
a process remains running at least as long as it takes for the next
process in the chain to join its group, etc., but if that code was
there, it wasn't working in my test setup (WSL).
This patch definitely needs some review; I'm not sure how I should
handle non-external commands (and external commands executed via
posix_spawn). I don't know if they are affected by the race condition in
the first place, but when I tried to add the same "wait for next command
in chain to run before unblocking" that would cause black screens
requiring ctrl+c to bypass.
The "unblock previous command" code was originally run by the next child
to be forked, but was then moved to the shell code instead, making it
more-centrally located and less error-prone.
Note that additional headers may be required for the mmap system call on
other platforms.
This is the first step to implementing issue #4200 is to stop subclassing
env_var_t from wcstring. Not too surprisingly doing this identified
several places that were incorrectly treating env_var_t and wcstring as
interchangeable types. I'm not talking about those places that passed
an env_var_t instance to a function that takes a wcstring. I'm talking
about doing things like assigning the former to the latter type, relying
on the implicit conversion, and thus losing information.
We also rename `env_get_string()` to `env_get()` for symmetry with
`env_set()` and to make it clear the function does not return a string.
I decided this was just too useful not to include in our final fish 2.x
release. And since it does not modify any existing behavior it is safe
to include at this late date in the process of creating 2.7.
This makes command substitutions impose the same limit on the amount
of data they accept as the `read` builtin. It does not limit output of
external commands or builtins in other contexts.
Fixes#3822
This adds a new capability to the `set` command. It is similar to
running `set` with no other arguments but provides far more detail about
each variable. Such as whether it is set in each of the local, global,
and universal scopes. And the values in each scope. You can also ask for
specific variables to be shown.
Fixes#4265
Rewrite the `abbr` function to store each abbreviation in a separate
variable. This greatly improves the efficiency. For the common case
it is 5x faster. For pathological cases it is upwards of 100x faster.
Most people should be able to unconditionally define abbreviations in
their config.fish without a noticable slow down.
Fixes#4048
This takes a string that is then split upon like `string split`.
Unlike $IFS, the string is used as one piece, not a set of characters.
There is still a fallback to IFS if no delimiter is given, that
behaves exactly as before.
Fixes#4156.
This silences warnings from the compiler about ignoring return value of
‘ssize_t write(int, const void*, size_t)’, declared with attribute
warn_unused_result [-Wunused-result].
The class `completer_t` declares `complete_special_cd`, an unused method. I searched the entire source tree and this declaration seems to be the only instance of `complete_special_cd`. There is no definition or uses which likely means this is dead code.
PR #3691 made most calls to `signal_block()` and `signal_unblock()`
no-ops unless a magic env var is set when fish starts running. It's
been seven months since that change was made and no problems have been
reported. This finishes that work by removing those no-op function calls
and support for the magic env var in our next major release (which won't
happen till at least six months from now).
The primary motivation for --keep-order for `complete` was to support
something like commit history completions, which are returned by git in
reverse chronological order and make no sense alphabetically (they are
SHA1 hashes).
See https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/361 for more info.
Introduce a -k/--keep-order switch to `complete` that can be used to
prevent fish from sorting/re-ordering the results provided by a completion
source.
In addition, this patch does so without doing away with deduplication
of completions by introducing a new unique_unsorted(..) helper function
that removes duplicates in-place without affecting the general order of
the vector/container.
Note that the code now uses a stable sort for completions, since the
behavior of is_naturally_less_than as of this patch now means that the
results are not necessarily _actually_ identical just because that function
repeatedly returns false for any ordering of any given two elements.
Fixes#361
* Make npm run-script completion faster with `jq`
When jq is available, it's actually faster to invoke jq and parse the `package.json`
invoking the `npm` command.
Also, prior to this commit, both `__fish_complete_npm` and `__fish_npm_run` were being run
whenever completions for `npm run` subcommand was being used, which was actually making
repetitive work (invoking npm command twice). This pull request is supposed to make completion
without `jq` faster as well
* Refactor npm.fish for code reutilization
Created function to handle both cases of npm run completion parse, with or without `jq` completion.
* Remove unecessary blank line
This completes the refactoring of the `set` builtin. It also removes a
seemingly never used feature of the `set` command. It also eliminates all
the lint warnings about this module.
Fixes#4236
When reporting whether a boolean flag was seen report the actual flags
rather than a summary count. For example, if you have option spec `h/help`
and we parse `-h --help -h` don't do the equivalent of `set _flag_h 3`
do `set _flag_h -h --help -h`.
Partial fix for #4226
When executing a function, local-exported (`set -lx`) variables
previously were not accessible at all. This is weird e.g. in case of
aliases, since
```fish
set -lx PAGER cat
git something # which will call $PAGER
```
would not work if `git` were a function, even if that ends up calling
`command git`.
Now, we copy these variables, so functions get a local-exported copy.
```fish
function x
echo $var
set var wurst
echo $var
end
set -lx var banana
x # prints "banana" and "wurst"
echo $var # prints "banana"
```
One weirdness here is that, if a variable is both local and global,
the local-copy takes precedence:
```fish
set -gx var banana
set -lx var pineapple
echo $var # prints "pineapple"
x # from above, prints "pineapple" and "wurst"
echo $var # still prints "pineapple"
set -el var # deletes local version
echo $var # "banana" again
```
I don't think there is any more consistent way to handle this - the
local version is the one that is accessed first, so it should also be
written to first.
Global-exported variables are _not_ copied, instead they still offer
full read-write access.
When reporting whether a boolean flag was seen report the actual flags
rather than a summary count. For example, if you have option spec `h/help`
and we parse `-h --help -h` don't do the equivalent of `set _flag_h 3`
do `set _flag_h -h --help -h`.
Partial fix for #4226
In the rare case that we don't inherit $HOME _and_ can't read it from
/etc/passwd, this makes it so instead of triggering an assert() $HOME
is set to the empty list.
Tilde-expansion expands to nothing in such a case (and a string-empty
$HOME), `cd` errors out.
Fixes#4229.
Fish 2.6.0 introduced a regression that keeps setting
`fish_escape_delay_ms` as a uvar from working. This also fixes a related
problem: callbacks generated from the initial loading of universal vars
were not being acted on.
Fixes#4196
Also stop special-casing `printf` as if it were a syntactical keyword
with respect to handling `printf --help`. It should use the same pattern
as every other builtin command.
The code for reporting parser errors needs a major overhaul. But rather
than do that I'm going to add another hack in the hope that this doesn't
introduce yet another problem.
Fixes#4221
The recent change to switch `psub` to use `argparse` caused it to use
a fifo by default because it inadvertently fixed a long standing bug in
the fish script. This changes the behavior back to `psub --file` being
the default behavior and introduces a `--fifo` flag. It also updates the
documentation to make it clearer when and why `--fifo` mode should not
be used.
Fixes#4222
While updating the `history` function to use `argparse` I realized it is
useful to define an option that can be used in three ways. First by
using the short flag; e.g., `-n NNN`. Second by using the long flag;
e.g., `--max NNN`. Third, as an implicit int flag; e.g., `-NNN`. This
use case is now supported by a spec of the form `n#max`.
A recent regression to the `alias` command points out the need for more
unit tests of its behavior. I also decided to use it as an opportunity
to normalize the output of just `alias` to list aliases.
The previous change to use `argparse` for parity with every other
builtin and function introduced a regression. Invocations that start
with a negative number can fail because the negative value looks like an
invalid flag.
This implements support for numeric flags without an associated short or
long flag name. This pattern is used by many commands. For example `head
-3 /a/file` to emit the first three lines of the file.
Fixes#4214
This implements a `fish_opt` command that provides a way for people
to create option specs for the `argparse` command as an alternative to
creating such strings by hand.
Fixes#4190
We've needed a fishy way to parse flags and arguments given to scripts
and functions for a very long time. In particular a manner that provides
the same behavior implemented by builtin commands. The long term goal is
to support DocOpt. But since it is unclear when that will happen so this
implements a `argparse` command. So named as homage to the excellent
Python module of the same name.
Fixes#4190
This fixes a stupid bug in my previous commit to standardize on a new
`list_to_array_val()` function. This adds a unit test to keep this from
regressing.
This is the first step in implementing a better abstraction for handling
fish script vars in the C++ code. It implements a new function (with two
signatures) to provide a standard method for construct the flag string
representation of a fish script array.
Partial fix for #4200
The count command should not treat any flag specially. Not even `-h` and
`--help`. It should simply return a count of the number of arguments it
received.
Fixes#4189
Completion strings, especially the description, might contain characters,
such as backspace, which make it impossible to calculate the width of
the string.
Fixes#4179
Var `___git_ps_color_suffix_done` is supposed to be
`___fish_git_prompt_color_suffix_done`. This bug was found by an
experimental change to detect the use of undefined variables (#4163).
Similarly, we should simply test whether `__fish_git_prompt_showcolorhints`
is set rather than set to a non-empty string.
The `read` command `-m` and `--mode-name` vars are now deprecated and do
nothing other than result in a warning message. The `read` command now
honors the `FISH_HISTORY` var that is used to control where commands are
read from and written to. You can set that var to the empty string to
suppress the use of both history files. Or you can set it to a history
session ID in which case that will limit the `read` history that is
available.
Fixes#1504
Don't import the bash history if the user has specified that a non-default
fish history file should be used. Also, rename the var that specifies
the fish history session ID from `FISH_HISTFILE` to `FISH_HISTORY`.
Fixes#4172
Using the FISH_HISTFILE variable will let people customise the session
to use for the history file. The resulting history file is:
`$XDG_DATA_HOME/fish/name_history`
Where `name` is the name of the session. The default value is `fish`
which results in the current history file.
If it's set to an empty string, the history will not be stored to a
file.
Fixes#102
Because the 'getopt' library differs between systems, it's likely
that there will be different output. This is the case between the
GNU-based Linux and the BSD-based Darwin, for the 'getopt' library,
it seems. It causes the tests to produce different results.
To allow us to test, and check for regressions, on the different
platforms, the invocation code has been updated to allow a
system-specific suffix to be used on the test files. If this suffix
is found, the test will also be flagged as being system-specific
which should ensure the change in behaviour is noted.
The Travis macOS test systems do not appear to have colordiff present, so any
failures would mean that no output would be shown. This may also be a
problem for the other test scripts as well, but the invocation tests are
the ones being affected here.
We change our behaviour to downgrade to the plain diff tool if colordiff is
not present.
The invocation tests were not especially clear on how they should be
used, without reading the code. And who really wants to do that? So,
a description of what the test does (and thus what each file is) is
now present in the file prologue comment.
Some more of the invocations are tested in this change:
- bad switches
- errors in configuration files
- regular command, configuration and init command ordering
- persistence of variables over command invocation.
- interactive and login switch use
- terminal exit code return
- version request
There are sure to be other invocations that should be tested, but
these give a fair number of them a go.
The new '-C' initial command needs some tests, and as there are no
tests just yet for the command invocation, this change adds a harness
and calls it from the high-level tests in the Makefile.
The tests are similar in style to the other high level tests, in that
we capture the output and compare it to that which we expect. The
harness itself is written in bash - sorry - because we're testing the
fish shell's invocation, and trying to do that with the fish we've
just built wouldn't actually make for a very useful test when things
go wrong.
The 'tests/invocation.sh' script can be executed manually, or as part
of the 'make test' target, to make it easy to use both as part of the
development and as part of automation.
The harness has only been tested on linux with bash 4.3.11, and requires
grep and sed. Although not tested with OS X, I believe I have avoided
the syntax which is inconsistent.
The tests added here cover just the initial command's basic execution,
and when it is mixed with the regular '-c' command.
In order to allow the execution of commands before dropping to an
interactive prompt, a new switch, '-C' or '--init-command' has been
added to those switches that we accept.
The documentation has been updated correspondingly.
The original code only supported a single command list to be executed,
and this command list terminates the shell when it completes. To allow
the new command list to preceed the original one, both have been
wrapped in a new container class 'command_line_switches_t'. This is
then passed around in place of the list of strings we used previously.
I had considered moving the interactive, login and other command line
switch states into this container, but doing so would change far more
of the code, moving the structure to be available globally, and I
wasn't confident of the impact. However, this might be a useful thing
to do in the future.
A new function, run_command_list, was lifted from the prior execution
code, and re-used for both the initial command and the regular command
execution.
We now have a builtin that can do URL escaping so use it. I can't find
any uses of our private `__fish_urlencode` function in any Oh-My-Fish or
Fisherman code so remove it.
We need a way to encode arbitrary strings into valid fish variable
names. It would also be nice if we could convert strings to valid URLs
without using the slow and hard to understand `__fish_urlencode` function.
In particular, eliminating the need to manipulate the locale.
Fixes#4150
As part of addressing #1310 I decided it makes more sense to replace
`current-function` with just `function`, etc., because I'm going to add
flags to let the user specify which stack level they are interested in.
With the default being zero or the "current" level.
This just removes every invalid index.
That means with `set foo a b c` and the "show" function from tests/expand.in:
- `show $foo[-5..-1]` prints "3 a b c"
- `show $foo[-10..1]` prints "1 a"
- `show $foo[2..5]` prints "2 b c"
- `show $foo[1 3 7 2]` prints "3 a c b"
and similar for command substitutions.
Fixes#826.
This is another step to resolving issue #1310. It makes
`fish_breakpoint_prompt` a replacement for `fish_prompt` if it is defined
and we're presenting a prompt in the context of a `breakpoint` command.
This implements `status is-breakpoint` that returns true if the current
shell prompt is displayed in the context of a `breakpoint` command.
This also fixes several bugs. Most notably making `breakpoint` a no-op if
the shell isn't interactive. Also, typing `breakpoint` at an interactive
prompt should be an error rather than creating a new nested debugging
context.
Partial fix for #1310
This does several things. It fixes `builtin_function()` so that errors it
emits are displayed. As part of doing that I've removed the unnecessary
`out_err` parameter to make the interface like every other builtin.
This also fixes a regression introduced by #4000 which was attempting to
fix a bug introduced by #3649.
Fixes#4139
Running the tests on travis revealed that some compilers (or at least
with some options) call the wrong struct constructor if there is more
than one struct with the same name but differing definitions.
Hoist the code for parsing flags out of each individual subcommand and
into a function shared by all the subcommands. This reduces duplication
and potential for error. More importantly it makes the code that
actually implements the subcommand more prominent.
When 2.6.0 was released some people reported that the third-party `rbenv`
and `pyenv` commands were incorrectly depending on our `setenv` function
not behaving exactly like the csh command of the same name. Specifically,
our version had a bug. It allowed more than one value. It no longer
does so after it was rewritten so that the three auto-split vars were
correctly handled.
See issue #4103
The Haiku stdio library has a bug. If we set stdout to unbuffered and it
is attached to a tty it discards wide output. Given how we interact with
the tty it should be safe to replace the problematic `fputwc()` calls
with simple `write()` calls. This does depend on the rest of the fish
code that writes to the tty to ultimately call write() which is true at
this time and should remain true in the future.
Fixes#4100
This change does several things. First, it works around a quirk of the
`xgetttext` command that only recognizes description strings in even
numbered position on the command. Second, it allows descriptions
introduced by the `-d` short flag to be recognized.
More importantly, it normalizes the strings so that `xgettext` correctly
extracts them into the *.po file. Prior to this change many fish script
strings were ignored due to how they were written (e.g., single versus
double quotes).
Fixes#4073

* Added Magento2 CLI completions
This is the completion file for the Magento2 CLI application I use on my servers. It has an additional feature tho, I'm not sure if it fits into the fish completion philosophy:
If you provide limited access credentials, it will connect to the MySQL database and provide additional suggestions, such as available users, themes or indexers in the database. If this file is never touched, those suggestions simply won't show up. I, personally, find them to be pretty useful, though.
Should I remove those database suggestions before creating a PR?

Commit f10e4f8 causes some old compilers to complain about implicit
return from non-void function. A false positive error but make the
compiler happy so it stops complaining.
This suppresses lint warnings about using `getpwent()` because there is
only one context where fish uses it. Thus the fact it may not be thread
safe is not relevant to fish. This also improves that call site in
`completer_t::try_complete_user()` method by short-circuiting the loop
when a match is found.
The lint warning about possible problems using `flock()` to lock files
that I added isn't helpful and is just noise in the `make lint-all`
output. What we should do is is change to code to obviate the need for
file locking. But that's a big change for another day.
Another change related to issue #3985. I forgot to includes this in my
previous two changes related to to consistently returning status 121
when any command, not just `string`, is handed invalid args.
This changes all of the builtins to behave like `string` to return
STATUS_INVALID_ARGS (121) if the args passed to the command don't make
sense. Also change several of the builtins to use the existing symbols
(e.g., STATUS_CMD_OK and STATUS_CMD_ERROR) rather than hardcoded "0"
and "1" for consistency and to make it easier to find such values in
the future.
Fixes#3985
This primarily replaces "STATUS_BUILTIN_OK" with "STATUS_CMD_OK" and
"STATUS_BUILTIN_ERROR" with "STATUS_CMD_ERROR". That is because we want
to make it clear these status codes are applicable to fish functions as
well as builtins. Future changes will make it easier to use these
symbols and values in functions.
Working on a related problem caused me to notice that if a fish script
was run via `nohup` it would die when receiving SIGHUP. This fixes the
code to handle that correctly so that fish scripts can be nohup'd.
Fixes#4007
Per discussion in PR#3998 to review adding a `--filter` flag to `string
replace` rename the same flag in the `string match` subcommand to avoid
confusion about the meaning of the flag.
Discussion in issue #3295 resulted in a decisions to rename the
functions --metadata flag to --details.
This also fixes a bug in the definition of the short flags for the
`functions` command. The `-e` flag does not take an argument and
therefore should not be defined as `e:`. Notice that the long form,
`--erase`, specifies `no_argument`. This discrepency happened to work
due to a quirk of how the flag parsing loop was written.
0 is not a good default PGID, because it's possible for a kernel process
to have the PGID of 0 under Linux.
This meant that job_get_from_pid could return incorrect jobs, as the PGID
for internal, non-forked jobs was the same as kernel processes.
Avoid this by using an invalid PGID as the initial PGID.
It is possible for fish to not be the process group leader; avoid
signalling the process group containing the current process by checking
with getpgrp() rather than assuming that getpid() is enough.
If fish is not the first process in a pipeline, and jobs are started
from the fish process, it is possible for fish and the OS to have
different ideas about what the process group of the jobs are.
This change confirms the current PGID, rather than assuming that it is
the same as the PID.
Defining aliases for existing symbols serves only to obscure the code.
So remove the following symbols and replace them with the primary
symbols:
enum { BUILTIN_TEST_SUCCESS = STATUS_BUILTIN_OK, BUILTIN_TEST_FAIL =
STATUS_BUILTIN_ERROR };
See issue #3985.
Per my comment in issue #3980 this implements `__fish_print_users` in
terms of `__fish_complete_users` so we don't have to modify both when a
change to how users are enumerated is needed.
The bind mode names can be, and are, used in the construction of fish
variable names. So don't allow users to use names that are not legal as
a variable name. This should not break anything since, AFAICT, no
existing fish scripts, including those provided by Oh-My-Fish and
Fisherman define bind modes that would not be legal with this change.
Fixes#3965
This is the first step in addressing issue #3965. It renames some of the
functions involved in validating variable and function names to clarify
their purpose. It also augments the documentation to make the rules for
such identifiers clearly documented.
This has the side benefit of working around a wild bug with readline+fish that I've reported to the upstream readline developers. (The result of that bug is that the hg processes are constantly being leaked as `bg` jobs in the shell, which is how I came to notice this in the first place)
This removes a need for packagers to either patch our shebangs or pick
a particular python.
This was already done in __fish_config_interactive (where we need to
duplicate the code because it involves backgrounding).

The recent change to improve the behavior of the `bg` command (commit
3edb7d538) resulted in the `send_to_bg()` no longer using the `name`
parameter it was given. This rectifies that lint warning by removing
that parameter as it never served a useful purpose.
Reviewing a PR for a completion script caused me to look at the
implementation for the `__fish_complete_directories` function. Which in
turn lead me to create this change to improve its implementation and add
unit tests for the function.
Switch from null terminated arrays to `wcstring_list_t` for lists of
special env var names. Rename `list_contains_string` to `contains` and
modify the latter interface to not rely on a `#define`.
Rename `list_contains_string()` to `contains()` and eliminate the
current variadic implementation. Update all callers of the removed
version to use the string list version.
There are at least three env vars describing a sequence of paths to be
searched where an empty path element is implicitly equivalent to ".".
This change converts the implicit "." to explicit whenever the variable
is imported or set. This makes the variable much easier to use in fish
scripts.

This is to make pasting literals easier.
When a user pastes something, we normally take it as-is.
The exception is when a single-quote is open, e.g. the current token
is
foo'bar
When something is pasted here, we escape single-quotes (`'`) and
backslashes (`\\`), so typing a `'` after it will turn it into a
literal token.
Fixes#967.
This is the next step in determining whether we can disable blocking
signals without a good reason to do so. This makes not blocking signals
the default behavior. If someone finds a problem they can add this to
their ~/config/fish/config.fish file:
set FISH_NO_SIGNAL_BLOCK 0
Alternatively set that env var before starting fish. I won't be surprised
if people report problems. Till now we have relied on people opting in
to this behavior to tell us whether it causes problems. This makes the
experimental behavior the default that has to be opted out of. This will
give us a lot more confidence this change doesn't cause problems before
the next minor release.
Note that there are still a few places where we force blocking of
signals. Primarily to keep SIGTSTP from interfering with the shell in
response to manipulating the controlling tty. Bash is more selective
in the signals it blocks around the problematic syscalls (c.f., its
`git_terminal_to()` function). However, I don't see any value in that
refinement.
There should be just one place that calls `setupterm()`. While refactoring
the code I also decided to not make initializing the curses subsystem a
fatal error. We now try two fallback terminal names ("ansi" and "dumb")
and if those can't be used we still end up with a usable shell.

the default behavior. If someone finds a problem they can add this to
their ~/config/fish/config.fish file:
set FISH_NO_SIGNAL_BLOCK 0
Alternatively set that env var before starting fish. I won't be surprised
if people report problems. Till now we have relied on people opting in
to this behavior to tell us whether it causes problems. This makes the
experimental behavior the default that has to be opted out of. This will
give is a lot more confidence this change doesn't cause major problems
prior to the next minor release.
The `make style` and `make style-all` commands have been performing well
without glitches for long enough that it is no longer necessary to report
when they don't change the style of a file. Especially in light of the
fact that all the relevant code has been restyled in the past year. This
change makes `make style-all` much less noisy.
If the first word of the alias body ends with a semicolon we need to
strip that character, and otherwise escape the extracted command, to
ensure the subsequent function definition is valid.
Fixes#3860
The previous change neglected to consider that numbers too large for the
long long datatype will result in calling strerror(ERANGE) whose return
value can vary depending on the platform. Which breaks the unit test.
The primary pupose of this change is to make OpenSUSE builds happy by
adding a `DIE()` call so its build toolchain knows we won't fall off the
end of function `selection_direction_is_cardinal()`.
* Added reconnect and its subcommand
* Updated the sideload description and made its completion more advanced
* Silenced errors on backup and uninstall auto completion when no device is attached
I recently upgraded the software on my macOS server and was dismayed to
see that cppcheck reported a huge number of format string errors due to
mismatches between the format string and its arguments from calls to
`assert()`. It turns out they are due to the macOS header using `%lu`
for the line number which is obviously wrong since it is using the C
preprocessor `__LINE__` symbol which evaluates to a signed int.
I also noticed that the macOS implementation writes to stdout, rather
than stderr. It also uses `printf()` which can be a problem on some
platforms if the stream is already in wide mode which is the normal case
for fish.
So implement our own `assert()` implementation. This also eliminates
double-negative warnings that we get from some of our calls to
`assert()` on some platforms by oclint.
Also reimplement the `DIE()` macro in terms of our internal
implementation.
Rewrite `assert(0 && msg)` statements to `DIE(msg)` for clarity and to
eliminate oclint warnings about constant expressions.
Fixes#3276, albeit not in the fashion I originally envisioned.
* Add completions for helm
helm - is a tool for managing Kubernetes charts. Charts are packages of
pre-configured Kubernetes resources.
See: https://github.com/kubernetes/helm
* Improve helm release completions description
After some feedback from the community it seems it is good to include
the chart in the release description. This adds the chart information to
the description. So to say this is `Release of CHART`.
* Further improvements to helm completions
- Utilize complete -f, -r and -x properly
- Add some more context aware completions (chart versions, kubectl context and namespaces)
I'm starting to wonder if IWYU is worth the effort. Nonetheless, this
makes it lint clean on macOS and reduces the number of warnings on
FreeBSD and Linux.
ncurses since 6.0 sends the "E3" sequence along with "clear", even for
just `clear` or `tput clear`. This deletes the scrollback buffer which
is usually not what you want.
Fixes#2855.
Some things like pyenv can change what `python` refers to, so what we
detect when we load the completions can become invalid later.
Also mentioned in #3840.
The issue here was that the `python` completion did a version check on
the `python` binary, so it would complete python2 stuff if system
python was py2, even if the user tried to complete `python3`.
This isn't beautiful, but it's more resilient than e.g. doing magic
with `commandline`.
Fixes#3840.
This puts a hard upper bound of 10 MiB on the amount of data that read
will consume. This is to avoid having the shell consume an unreasonable
amount of memory, possibly causing the system to enter a OOM condition,
if the user does something non-sensical.
Fixes#3712
* color: make brgrey really grey
The 0055 value is actually 0x2d which isn't 0x55 mentioned further and is probably a typo
* color.cpp: reformat color table
Tidy color table up and also fix hex number case for grey color. This should ease spotting errors like one from previous commit.
We now are stingier with taking history file locks - if the lock
is held too long we may just break it. But the current file save
architecture holds the lock for the duration of the save. It also
has some not-quite-right checks that can cause spurious failures in
the history stress test.
Reimplement the history save to retry. Rather than holding the lock,
rewrite the file to a temporary location and then take the lock. If
the history file has changed, start all over.
This is going to be slower under contention, but the advantage is that
the lock is only held for a brief period (stat + rename) rather than
across calls to write().
Some updated logic also fixes spurious failures that were easy to observe
when tsan was enabled. These failures were due to failing to check if the
file at the path was the same file we opened.
The next step is to move the history file saving to a background thread
to reduce the chances of it impacting user's typing.
Allow retrying, fix an issue where we trip over our own changes
by thinking the file has changed when we are responsible for changing
it, and improve some commenting
This class is used to accumulate data to be written to the history
file. It has some dubious optimizations around trying to track an
offset separately from the size of the buffer. After some investigation
these aren't helping, vector behaves fine on its own. So just make
this a simple wrapper around vector.
Before this change the function `__fish_print_filesystems` would print
an error message about an empty wildcard match for the pattern
`$PATH/mount.*`, if the current operating system does not include any
helper binaries for the command `mount`. An example for such an OS is
the current version of macOS (version 10.12).
Cache the escape sequences we've seen when checking for those which
don't take any visual space when writing the prompt or similar strings.
This reduces the cost of determining the true cost of such strings by a
full order of magnitude if they include lots of such escape sequences.
Periodically sort the cached escape sequence lengths based on feedback
from cache hits so that we're always checking for the most likely
sequence lengths first.
Also cache the prompt layouts to avoid doing the calculations if the
prompt doesn't change.
Fixes#3793
Change the escape key binding in insert mode (in vi key bindings)
to check if we are in paging mode. If so, emit cancel and stay in
insert mode. Otherwise perform the current behavior of switching
back to default mode and adjusting the cursor.
Fixes#2871
Currently, if bind is run with --mode but not --sets-mode, the
binding gets an implicit --sets-mode equivalent to the mode. This
is usually unobservable but it may matter if the mode is changed
by some internal part of the binding (e.g. set fish_bind_mode...)
then that setting will be lost after the binding is complete.
* Add completions for minikube
This adds basic completions for minikube, the subcommands and their options.
* Improve minikube completions
- Use more consistent and shorter descriptions.
- Fix subcommand options
- Add more semantic completions
* Fix named variable for option value
* Add completions for minikube addons enable/disable
* Add completions for minikube addons open
This commit addresses many of the style problems with the previous
commit. If this introduces any bugs they are solely my fault. The style
of this code needs more improvement. Some of which could be done today.
Others will have to wait until `fish_indent` is improved.
Add IPV6 /etc/hosts completion support. Parses columns rather than values which produces improved output.
Support ssh -F and Include completion
Ignore ssh Hostname and Host with wildcard. The following only get in the way:
- Hostname: Host resolves to Hostname
- Wildcard Host: Cannot ssh to a glob pattern
Improve scp completions
* complete only local files when no host provided
* complete only remote files when host is provided
* complete local files or hosts when no separator
Disable username completion for ssh/scp
Username completion only provides local users which will unlikely be
useful on a remote machine. ssh will use the current username (the only
useful one) or one provided in the ssh config.
Commit 8645aa94 was made because it seemed necessary at the time. However,
when I run `make lint-all` now it complains about include loops for header
`signal.h`. This reverts part of that earlier commit to get sane behavior
from IWYU again.
This was an old experiment to compile scripts directly into the
shell itself, reducing the amount of I/O performed at startup.
It has not been used for a long time. Time to remove it.
Haiku only has `man --path`.
Still doesn't support OpenBSD.
Use $MANPATH if available. This needs to:
- Ignore stderr (we pipe it and throw it away)
- Read the subprocess returncode, since `man --path` is an existing
command that fails instead of a non-existent one (that raises an
exception)
- Properly set up the fallback
Fixes#2194.
Commit ab189a75 introduced a regression where we stop breaking out
of loops in response to a child death via a signal. Fix that regression.
Also introduces a test to help ensure we don't regress in the future.
Fixes#3780
* Improve bzr completion. Closes#3661
* Add basic completion for bzr commands
* Include short and log options for common commands
* Removed not so common commands
* Remove trailing '.' as requested by #3769
* Remove '=' as suggested by #3769
* We don't need '=' in long options
* Use fish helper functions for autocomplete
To avoid issues pointed out in #3769 helper functions included in fish
are used (__fish_use_subcommand and __fish_seen_subcommand).
* Fixed typo
This is a partial fix for issue #3737. It only addresses the SIGHUP
aspect of the problem. Fixing SIGTERM is TBD.
(cherry picked from commit 31adc221d9)
The block stack is now sound, and no longer needs this ancient
cleanup logic, which tried to account for cases where blocks
were pushed but never popped.
Currently the block stack is just a vector of pointers.
Clients must manually use new() to allocate a block, and then
transfer ownership to the stack (so must NOT delete it).
Give the parser itself responsibility for allocating blocks too,
so that it takes over both allocation and deletion. Use unique_ptr
to make deletion less error-prone.
Previously we would try to walk all the blocks (from within the
signal handler!) and mark them as skipped. Stop doing that, it's
wildly unsafe.
Also rationalize how the skip flag is set per block. Remove places
that shouldn't set it (e.g. break and continue shouldn't set skip
on the loop block).
read_in_chunks does not clear the intermediate string 'str'
between iterations, so every chunk has every other chunk prepended
to it.
A secondary issue is that it calls str2wcstring() on an intermediate
chunk, which may split multi-byte sequences. This needs to be deferred
to the end.
Test added. Fixes#3756
This implements a way to use the `functions` command to perform
introspection to learn about the characteristics of a function. Such as
where it came from.
Fixes#3295
If the kernel reports a size of zero for the rows or columns (i.e., what
`stty -a` reports) fall back to the `COLUMNS` and `LINES` variables. If
the resulting values are not reasonable fallback to using 80x24.
Fixes#3740
Refactor `builtin_read()` to split the code that does the actual reading
into separate functions. This introduces the `read_in_chunks()` function
but in this change it is just a clone of `read_one_char_at_a_time()`. It
will be modified to actually read in chunks in the next change.
Partial fix for #2007
The shell was doing a log of signal blocking/unblocking that hurts
performance and can be avoided. This reduced the elapsed time for a
simple benchmark by 25%.
Partial fix for #2007
We should never use stdio functions that use stdout implicitly. Saving a
few characters isn't worth the inconsistency. Too, using the forms such
as `fwprintf()` which take an explicit stream makes it easier to find
the places we write to stdout versus stderr.
Fixes#3728
* Added new function for the default prompt mode
Now fish mode prompt will call fish_default_mode_prompt, this will solve #3641
* Added function description
* Change wording for documentation about default mode prompt
* Finish changes requested in code review
If the tty has been closed (i.e., become invalid) the `ttyname()`
function will return NULL. Passing that NULL to `strstr()` can crash
fish which means it won't kill its child processes and exit cleanly.
Another fix for #3644
mkostemp is not available on some older versions of macOS. In order
for our built binaries to run on them, mkostemp must be weak-linked.
On other systems, we use the autoconf check.
Introduce a function fish_mkstemp_cloexec which uses mkostemp if
it was detected and is available at runtime, else falls back to
mkstemp. This isolates some logic that is currently duplicated in
two places.
See #3138 for more on weak linking.
In order to use C++11 with the standard macOS Xcode toolset,
we must use libc++. This in turn requires using 10.7 as our
MIN_REQUIRED in the availability macros, which in turn marks
certain wide-character functions as strong symbols (since they
were introduced in 10.7).
Redeclare them as weak, so that we can run on 10.6 without link
errors. See #3138 for more.
GNU systems don't allow mixing narrow and wide IO, so some of these
messages were lost since 1621fa43d8.
stderr is also the more logical place for error output to end up.
Fixes#3704.
Emitting warnings about EPIPE errors when writing to stdout or stderr is
more annoying than helpful. So suppress that specific warning message.
Fixes#2516
A third-party plugin noticed that using `$CMD_DURATION` in the prompt
causes problems when combined with the recent changes to tighten up
parsing of strings meant to be integer values. This fixes the problem by
ensuring the var is defined before the first interactive command is run.
See https://github.com/fisherman/dartfish/issues/7
It was pointed out that the previous change to alert people to the fact
their completion scripts were using flags that are no longer valid
resulted in way too many warnings. This limits the warning to one per
session.
Fixes#3640
On some platforms, notably GNU libc, you cannot mix narrow and wide
stdio functions on a stream like stdout or stderr. Doing so will drop
the output of one or the other. This change makes all output to the
stderr stream consistently use the wide forms.
This change also converts some fprintf(stderr,...) calls to debug()
calls where appropriate.
Fixes#3692
Another dev pointed out my previous attempt to resolve issue #3612 did
not do a good job of clarifying the matter. Hopefully this change is
better at explaining why autoloading is not applicable to aliases.
* Add italics and dim modifier to set_color
* update documentation for set_color
* add reverse mode to set_color
* Use standout mode as fallback for reverse mode
* Apply patch from @Darkshadow2 adding additional modes
This would fail on very long numbers, e.g.
`math "1 + 1233242342353453463458972349873489273984873289472914712894791824712941"`
would now return "42", where it previously returned the correct "1233242342353453463458972349873489273984873289472914712894791824712942".
This reverts commit 26e781ef5a.
It's not the case that macOS and old BC doesn't respect this environment
variable, just that they don't have special behavior when it's set to 0.
However, there is rather universal favorable behavior with a value of 2.
Output is of the form:
\
999999999999999999999999999999999...
with the second line being arbitrarily long. So just grab that line
instead of stitching with `string`.
This can yield a 25-30% speedup.
This commit adds a feature that after typing "git add" and pressing
"alt+h", the manpage for "git-add" instead of "git" would be displayed.
The new logic takes the first argument which doesn't start with a dash
and tries to display manpage for "command-argument"; it falls back to
"man command" it the first try doesn't succeed.
Fixes#3618.
* Only append paths if `MANPATH` is already set, to match behavior of macOS
`path_helper` utility.
* Use the same technique as is used above to set PATH from /etc/paths and
/etc/paths.d/*.
I noticed that universal variable tests were failing on Cygwin and
Dragonfly BSD. The failures were because we are attempting to verify the
correct behavior of mechanisms that are known to be broken on those
platforms. There are still uvar test failures on those platforms with
this change but they are due to actual problems rather than bugs in the
tests.
Fixes#3587
Trailing whitespace on a `\fish` command was causing this build failure:
/private/var/folders/T/fish_doc_build_3RT8yS/random.doxygen:44:
warning: found </pre> tag without matching <pre>
Using `\e` is clearer and shorter than `\x1b`. It's also consistent with how
we write related control chars; e.g., we don't write `\x0a` we write '\n'.
Update our implementation of the PROMPT_SP heuristic to match current
zsh behavior. This makes it behave better on terminals like ConEmu and
the native MS Windows console which automatically insert a newline when
writing to the last column of the line.
Fixes#789
There are several places that use writestr() which should instead be
using fwprintf() or equivalent. Also, clarify the documentation for why
writestr() and writechr() exist so they aren't used inappropriately
again.
Fixes#3657
- Support completing dynamic make targets.
- Support completing make targets when using -C/--directory.
- Support `-Cdir/path`, `-C dir/path`
- Support `--directory=dir/path`, `--directory dir/path`
This detects if the make command have the `-p` switch otherwise it
assumes it is BSD make and will run a different command to try to figure
out the available targets.
Commits 48aa92900 and 77d4d21ca each added two files with the same name
differing only in letter case. That causes problems on systems like
macOS and MS Windows. Remove the lowercase file names. Anyone needing
those completions can do (same for VBoxHeadless):
function vboxsdl --wraps VBoxSDL
VBoxSDL $argv
end
The previous implementation didn't take into account that a lexer could
have multiple names and gave `cpp, c++` instead of `cpp` and `c++` when
completing `pygmentize -l c`.
--authoritative and --unauthoritative 'complete' builtin switches have no effect anymore.
This commit removes usage of --unautoritative/-u in completions.
--authoritative and --unauthoritative 'complete' builtin switches have no effect anymore.
This commit removes usage of --autoritative/-A in completions.
The complete builtin had once -A / --authoritative and -u /
--unauthoritative switches which indicated whether all possibilities for
completion are specified and would cause an error if the completion was
authoritative and an unknown option was encountered.
This feature was functionally removed during one of the past parser
rewritings, but -A and -u still remained in parts of the code and
command completions, although having no effect.
This commit removes the leftovers and prints an warning whenever user
tries to run the complete command with -A / -u / --authoritative /
--unauthoritative switches.
Fixes#3640.
Commit 8d27f81a to change how background jobs are handled (killed rather
than left running) when the shell is exited did not correctly handle
the nested interactive context created by the `breakpoint` command. This
fixes that mistake. Now any background jobs that already existed, or were
created within the `breakpoint` context, are left running when exiting
that context.
Fish is not consistent with other shells like bash and zsh when exiting
an interactive shell with background jobs. While it is true that fish
explicitly claims no compatibility with POSIX 1003.1 this is an area
where deviation from the established practice adds negative value.
The reason for the current behavior seems to be due to two users who did
not understand why interactive shells managed background jobs as they
did and were not aware of tools like `nohup` or `disown`. See issue
There is also a fairly significant bug present due to a misunderstanding of
what a true value from `reader_exit_forced()` means. This change corrects
that misunderstanding.
Fixes#3497
The recent discussion around allowing the user to change various termios
(i.e., stty) settings reminded me that there are places in our code
where we assume the interrupt key is [ctrl-C]. That's a bad assumption.
Instead use the actual value reported to us by the kernel.
This also makes the fkr program friendlier by always reporting when a
signal was received, not just when run with -d2, and prompting the user
to press the INTR or EOF key a second time to exit.
The recent refactoring to separate default (emacs) from vi key bindings
overlooked adding `\cH` bindings to vi mode. This also fixes the
behavior of the [del] key bindings (\x7F).
Fixes#3653
If acquiring a lock on the history or uvar file takes more than 250 ms
disable locking of the file. On systems with broken remote file system
locking it can cause tens of seconds delay after running each command
which can make the shell borderline unusable.
This also changes history file locking to use flock() rather than
fcntl() to be consistent with uvar file locking. It also implements the
250 ms time limit before giving up on locking.
Fixes#685
If an interactive shell has its tty invalidated attempts to write to
stdout or stderr can trigger this bug:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20632
Avoid that by reopening the stdio streams on /dev/null if we're getting
an ENOTTY error when trying to do things like give or take ownership of
the tty.
This includes some unrelated style cleanups but including them seems
reasonable.
Fixes#3644
This implements a standard function and bindings for editing the command
line in an external editor. This feature has been requested multiple
times in the past year with various solutions cut and pasted into those
issues. This change combines the best aspects of those solutions.
Fixes#1215
There were two places in the code that used the anti-pattern of
returning True on success else an error message. In python you should
always be able to replace `if x == True:` with just `if x:`. Which is
what the lint tool recommended. Unfortunately I didn't notice how the
return value was being used. This fixes that by changing the two
affected functions to return an error message or None on success.
This also adds `from __future__ import print_function` since the code
uses the `print(msg)` function form rather than the `print msg`
statement form. The former works by accident on python2 because the
parens are interpreted as creating parenthesized expression that
devolves to the single string inside the parens. So while the future
import isn't strictly speaking necessary it will help avoid mistakes in
the future if more complex `print()` calls are added.
Partial fix for #3620
`abbr` used to take a single argument and split in on the first space,
but 309e10e7 and predecessors altered this behaviour. Update the web
config use of abbr to the newer format.
Fixes#3620.
I had disabled having `make style-all` restyling fish scripts because a
majority of them did not conform to the style enforced by `fish_indent`.
I recently restyled most of the fish scripts with the exception of the
completion scripts. So this re-enables restyling all scripts with the
exception of completion scripts.
When I refactored the code to reduce redundancy and improve the error
messages when the config or data directories could not be used I botched
the customization of the $HOME based data path.
min_width dates back to the original full-screen pager.
After some careful inspection, the code path that uses min_width
is never executed and so the min_width machinery is useless.
Let's remove it!
Tests that exercise error paths may result in output to
stderr. This may make it look like the test failed when it did
not. Introduce should_suppress_stderr_for_tests() to suppress
this output so the test output looks clean.
This commit fixes a bug which causes that
fish -c ')'; echo $status
("Illegal command name" error) returns 0. This is inconsistent with
e.g. when trying to run non-existent command:
fish -c 'invalid-command'; echo $status
("Unknown command" error) which correctly returns 127.
A new status code,
STATUS_ILLEGAL_CMD = 123
is introduced - which is returned whenever the 'Illegal command name *'
message is printed.
This commit also adds a test which checks if valid commands return 0,
while commands with illegal name return status code 123.
Fixes#3606.
This fixes a problem with non-threadsafe errno.
Ideally, this would be the use of the AX_PTHREAD macro, but it is GPL 3+
only, which is incompatible with the GPL 2 license of fish. It also
would need extending to cover C++.
For now, fish doesn't build on anything except GCC under Solaris anyway,
so `-pthread` is the right thing to use.
Work on #3340.
Without `-pthread` specified to the compiler, errno is not threadsafe on
Solaris (as _REENTRANT is undefined, and _POSIX_C_SOURCE may not be set
until after the inclusion of <errno.h>).
Work on #3340.
On Solaris, some standard wide character functions are only contained in
the std:: namespace. The configure script now checks for these, enabling
the appropriate `uses` statements in src/common.h.
The checks are handwritten, because Autoconf's AC_CHECK_FUNC macro
always uses C linkage, but the problem only appears under C++ linkage.
Work on #3340.
This is normally handled by the build_documentation.sh script, but if
the tarball includes the documentation then that script is never run.
We should do it in both places as the Xcode build uses only the
build_documentation.sh script!
Fixes#2561.
The autoreconf step requires a newer version of automake than is
available on older versions of Debian and Ubuntu; avoid the autoreconf
step on these platforms for now.
This change increases the amount of useful information when fish is
unable to create or use its config or data directory. We now make it
clear when neither var is set or one is set to an unusable location.
Fixes#3545
After 'x' is used to delete a character at the end of a line the cursor
should be repositioned at the last character, i.e. repeatedly pressing
'x' in normal mode should delete the entire string.
The abbr function doesn't have the possiblity to rename abbreviations.
You have to delete the old one and create a new one. This commit adds
this functionality and uses the syntax:
abbr -r OLD_KEY NEW_KEY
Fixes#2155.
A couple things went wrong with `env -u HOME USER=x ./fish -c ''`
We failed to check that `pw` isn't NULL leading to a crash when USER is
bogus. After fixing that we were not left with both variables in a
correct state still.
We now go back and force fish to dig up a working USER when we notice
this and then get both set successfully. Fixes#3599
I hate doing this but I am tired of touching a fish script as part of
some change and having `make style` radically change it. Which makes
editing fish scripts more painful than it needs to be. It is time to do
a wholesale reformatting of these scripts to conform to the documented
style as implemented by the `fish_indent` program.
This augments the previous change for issue #3346 by adding an error
message when an invalid integer is seen. This change is likely to be
controversial so I'm not going to squash it into the previous change.
The `test` builtin currently has unexpected behavior with respect to
expressions such as `'' -eq 0`. That currently evaluates to true with a
return status of zero. This change addresses that oddity while also
ensuring that other unusual strings (e.g., numbers with leading and
trailing whitespace) are handled consistently.
Fixes#3346
Only in one instance would test as `[` have the the errors formatted
as "[: foo". This fixes that. When trying to track down the source of
an error this could lead someone astray.
make clean was outputting misleading messages due to our
recursive invocation of make in the pcre directory, even if
that directory has no Makefile. This can easily come about if
the ./configure script determines we have a system installed PCRE.
This change simply checks for the presence of the Makefile in
the PCRE directory before invoking recursive make, for the clean
and distclean targets.
Fixes#3586
This might be a bit over the top, but getting the information that a default priority threshold is used without knowing what that value is or how to find out might not be so useful after all. Thus, change the completion to include this information dynamically.
Currently, the ./configure script generated by autotools will
test if the configure.ac script is newer than its output configure
script, and if so, run autoconf to rebuild it. However autoconf
is no longer sufficient because we have some m4 macros. So now
run autoreconf --no-recursive (per #3572)
This commit does a few things:
- Switches to C++11 as the language dialect
- Eliminates the Release_C++11 configuration (now C++11 is default)
- Switches to libc++ from libstdc++, since the libstdc++ that ships
with Xcode does not support C++11
The existing code is inconsistent, and in a couple of cases wrong, about
dealing with strings that are not valid ints. For example, there are
locations that call wcstol() and check errno without first setting errno
to zero. Normalize the code to a consistent pattern. This is mostly to
deal with inconsistencies between BSD, GNU, and other UNIXes.
This does make some syntax more liberal. For example `echo $PATH[1 .. 3]`
is now valid due to uniformly allowing leading and trailing whitespace
around numbers. Whereas prior to this change you would get a "Invalid
index value" error. Contrast this with `echo $PATH[ 1.. 3 ]` which was
valid and still is.
Some key bindings were updated in fish 2.4.0 but in some cases the
documentation does not correctly reflect the actual behavior. This
commit attempts to fix that.
Builtin commands that validate var names should use a consistent
mechanism. I noticed that builtin_read() had it's own custom code that
differed slightly from wcsvarname().
Fixes#3569
My previous change removed one place where is_wchar_ucs2() was used and
replaced it with compile time tests. This change does the same for the
other uses.
On Cygwin there are two narrowing conversions at line 931 in
src/fish_tests.cpp due to the code assuming a wchar_t is four bytes.
Obviously that's wrong but only became an issue with the pending change to
switch to C++11. The problematic values aren't actually used on Windows
because the tests that would use them are bypassed if is_wchar_ucs2()
returns true. This change predicates that code on a compile time rather
than a run time test.
The last commit to this auto completion changed it to use `string replace` instead of `tr`. Unfortunately they do not behave the same. `tr " = " "\t"` replaces " = " with a tabulator character, while `string replace -a " = " "\t"` replaces it with \t. Either `string` is misbehaving or this auto completion was broken.
We cannot just use TERM = xterm and defined Ss sequence, as some old
vte-based terminals are still in the wild that don't support the
sequence and don't have $VTE_VERSION set.
I have tested this on
- konsole - supported and works ($KONSOLE_PROFILE_NAME)
- new xterm - supported and works ($XTERM_VERSION)
- lxterminal-gtk3 - supported and works ($VTE_VERSION)
- new gnome-terminal - supported and works ($VTE_VERSION)
- lxterminal-gtk2 - not supported and deactivated (no $VTE_VERSION)
- tmux in konsole - works
- tmux in lxterminal-gtk2 - deactivated
and for all supported ones with the respective variable erased, to see
that it is deactivated.

The changes related to issue #3068 removed most of the emacs bindings
from vi mode. However, since fish 2.4.0 was released several people have
pointed out that the directions for reinstating the legacy hybrid key
bindings don't work. This change fixes that and makes it easier to use
the legacy hybrid bindings.
Fixes#3556
This fixes some of the IWYU and cppcheck lint warnings. And only on
macOS (formerly OS X). Fixing these types of warnings on a broader set
of platforms should be done but this is a baby step to making `make
lint-all` have few, if any, warnings. This reduces the number of lines
in the `make lint-all` output on macOS by over 500 lines.
I found that after fixing the args to `cppcheck` it started reporting
lots of varFuncNullUB warnings. Suppress them as they should be safe to
ignore. Also, improve the readability of the script.
There was a discussion recently on Gitter about `set_color reset`. The
result was @floam creating commit bd03c3fbc to change it to `set_color
normal` in share/functions/vared.fish. This does the same for
tests/test_util.fish.
Switch from a linear to a binary search when looking for a matching
string in an enum map. Testing shows this is a little more than twice as
fast when searching for keywords in the sixteen entry keyword_map array.
This speedup doesn't matter much when searching for subbcommands but any
slow down in the parser is unacceptable.
I'm going to use the same mechanism elsewhere such as token_type_map
in src/parse_tree.cpp. But this change only affects the recently
introduce subcommand handling for the history and status commands.
Verified on Cygwin on MS Windows 7 when invoked as
`env LANG=zh_CN.GBK@cjknarrow fish`. No regression seen
when run on other systems with UTF-8 locales.
Fixes#3503
The `status` command currently silently allows incompatible flags (i.e.,
subcommands). Too, using flags to specify subcommands misleads the user
into thinking they can specify multiple subcommands.
We recently modified the `history` command to deprecate using flags for
subcommands. This change does the same for the `status` command.
Fixes#3509
Earlier lint cleanups overlooked a couple of modules because on macOS at
the moment oclint ignores them. I noticed this when I ran `make lint-all`
on Ubuntu.

There was one block of code modified by commit 42458ff7 that had
convoluted, inverted, logic. In the process of collapsing nested
"if" blocks the logic was modified to avoid using "!" everywhere the
bool was tested. Unfortunately I neglected to modify two of the
conditions used to set that var to reflect the changed polarity.
This reverts commit dcb39af8c0.
It breaks building the documentation because splitting the sed invocation
in the `lexicon_filter` target from the preceding `if` block means the
`WORDBL` and `WORDBR` shell vars aren't available.

The fish_key_reader program was the only user of the
`set_wait_on_escape_ms()` function and that use was removed with commit

Update the CHANGELOG to more accurately reflect what will be included in
the 2.4.0 release vis-a-vis the `history` command behavior.
I noticed that the compiler was emitting some harmless warnings related
to the history changes so deal with those as well.
This modifies the code path for `set PATH` and `set CDPATH` to emit an
easier to understand warning when an entry in those vars is invalid. For
example
$ set PATH $PATH /tmp/arglebargle
set: Warning: $PATH entry "/tmp/arglebargle": No such file or directory
$ mkdir /tmp/d
$ chmod 0 /tmp/d
$ set PATH $PATH /tmp/d

$ touch /tmp/x
$ set PATH $PATH /tmp/x
set: Warning: $PATH entry "/tmp/x": Not a directory

* Fix building on Android by avoiding getpwent() if missing with autoconf check
The getpwent() function does not link when building for Android,
and user names on that platform are not interesting anyway.
People regularly ask how to make abbreviations global (i.e., private to
a fish session) rather than universal. So explain how to do so in the
`abbr` man page.
Fixes#3446
While working on making the history command support case-sensitive and
insensitive searches I noticed that entering "all" when interactively
deleting history entries resulted in an error. That's because the
history builtin currently only supports `--exact` so we need to loop
over the matching entries and delete them one at a time.
Fixes#3448
Using a configure check for stat.st_ctime_nsec fixes building on
Android which has that field but does not define STAT_HAVE_NSEC.
Before this change the Android build failed on the st_ctim.tv_nsec
fallback #else clause.
Taking a different approach here. I can't see why we'd only want to
recognize certain colors. Now, we'll just try all the colors fish might
use.
This could probably be optimized now that there are more
than 8 (or 16) colors fish can do.
My previous change to avoid creating a *.pyc file when running
create_manpage_completions.py was wrong because I put the
`sys.dont_write_bytecode = True` on the wrong line. Rather than simply
move that statement make the simpler, cleaner, fix that removes the need
for `eval` where that program is invoked.
The Linux kernel only splits on the first whitespace in the shebang line
(unlike BSD which splits on all whitespace). Which means there can be
only one argument after the path to the program.
Producing man pages is done infrequently (basically just at `make test`
and `make install`) so there isn't any point in writing compiled
byte-code versions of the python modules.
This change causes our configure script to just use the default behavior
of autoconf: in practice it will try g++ instead of clang++ first.
There are good reasons to use the behavior this reverts, namely g++
might be a symlink to clang++ and clang++ is never a symlink to g++ -
when `configure` says using "g++" that doens't tell us much.
On more systems than not, as far as I can tell, clang++ will often be a
newer compiler than g++ from what I can see as well.
However, it appears we have some bad things happening with Cygwin on
clang.
Fixes#3435
It is believed there are no longer any platforms we support that do not
support passing NULL as the second argument to realpath(). So rather
than duplicating the logic to get reasonable behavior from our
wrealpath() wrapper simply remove the redundant implementation.
After implementing `builtin fish_realpath` it was noticed that it did
not behave like GNU `realpath` without options. Which is super annoying
since that was the whole point of implementing the command. Major
failure on my part since I wrote the unit tests to match the behavior of
the existing `wrealpath()` function that I simply exposed as a builtin
command. Rather than actually verifying it behaved in a manner
compatible with GNU realpath.
Also, while the decision to call the builtin `fish_realpath` seemed to
make sense at the time of the original commit further reflection has
shown that to be a silly, idiosyncratic, thing to have done. So rename
it to simply `realpath`.
Fixes 3400
For now don't restyle all the fish scripts. That's because there
are still problems with the `fish_indent` output that require manual
intervention. Not to mention that very few of the fish scripts even
conform to `fish_indent` output at this time.
It's the ninth color - on virtual consoles this was likely to
try a color that doesn't work because we checked if max_colors >= 8.
Add another way to reach that color on terminals with only 8 colors
by using bold mode to get a bright.
This has potential to fail by simply rendering as black which can cause
it to be invisible on a white-on-black terminal. Not bad as it's just
making this bell/whistle invisible:
We *really* want to set the omitted newline character apart by having
it appear grey. On (FreeBSD consoles, at least) VCs it's not uncommon
for it to render as a "?". It's particularly confusing if it doesn't
render in a darker color as it cannot be discerned from actual program
output.
When performing fuzzy completion, if a directory segment is
valid, then don't consider it for a fuzzy match even if
the literal match produces no results.

This reverts commit 6faa2f9866.
The template has different behavior around interpreting
non-decimal sequences. This doesn't seem to have been intended.
This reverts commit f843eb3d31.
Both GNU and BSD have bugs regarding the classification of
non-characters and private use area characters. Provide wrappers around
iswalnum(), iswalpha(), and isgraph() to provide a consistent
experience. We don't bother to autoconf the use of these wrappers for
several reasons. Including the fact that a binary built for one distro
release should behave correctly on another release (e.g., FreeBSD 10
does the right thing while FreeBSD 11 and 12 do not with respect to
iswalnum() of code points in the range 0xFDD0..0xFDFF).
Also move a few functions from common.* to wutil.* because they are wide
char specific and really belong in the latter module.

* Adds a template to parse integers easily.
It's not enough to use intmax_t and check for empty strings: there are
limits. Adds a template to make it easy to parse an integer of any type.
Adds a compiler flag to flag existing dangers.
* nix warning, include <limits>, fix namespace error.
on MacOS `xcodebuild -quiet` will flag these intmax_t -> * conversions,
just use that if you want to find them.
This adds a flag to the `history search` command to limit the number of
matching entries to the first "n". The default is unlimited. This is
mostly useful in conjunction with aliases (i.e., functions) that are
intended to report the "n" most recent matching history entries without
piping the result through the user's pager.
Fixes#3244
If one does a make fish; ./fish - don't use the make-installed paths.
Also, remove huge chunk of nearly duplicated code #ifdef'd __APPLE__
for relocatable dirs in fish.app: the directories under Resources
in the bundle followed by the changes I made around here a few months
ago now are not different enough that they require a special case.
This works fine for fish.app.
I was surprised fish_indent was running from /usr/local/bin
instead of the git checkout when I ran ./fish
after building fish there. This was more easily noticable after my last
commit. I added some debug lines which probably fish could have been
doing already when looking into that.
This is a pretty major thing during fish initialization, commit it for
everyone.
Don't wrap fish_indent at all if the version in $PATH matches
$FISH_VERSION.
When we do wrap it, resolve the path once, and use that via alias
machinery instead of doing an eval each time.
In both cases, `type fish_indent` can tell us what it's actually going
to do now.
clarity aside, it's faster if we only eval the one time.
eval is not only evil, but slow.
> for h in $history[1..100]; echo $h | fish_indent --no-indent; end

these modern terminals both compose a nicer title if we don't try to provide a custom one (no path in title twice, "fish" in title twice) - and the user can configure which components they'd like in their terminal inside the terminal preferences.
Also make test "$VTE_VERSION" -ge .. work once I commit `test` strtoi

This deprecates the use of long options for history sub-commands (e.g.,
`history --delete`) in favor of proper sub-commands (e.g., `history

Also change option processing to allow options anywhere on the command
line to match how the vast majority of fish builtins handle flags.

Few final cleanups - time to feed it to Travis.
chown completion chown currently uses cat /etc/group to fetch the list of group names. In Cygwin there's no /etc/group file any more (user and group names are fetched directly from the OS), so when a user tries to tab-complete the group name they get an error message:
ASchulma@LZ77E1AASCHULMA ~/d/fish> chown ASchulma🐱 /etc/group: No such file or directory
This change fixes that by using getent group (via __fish_complete_groups) by preference to get the group names, and falling back to /etc/group. This is more portable.

Adds a color reset thing, to ensure fish tries to use hard colors during
testing.
Also, work on a discrepancy (not introduced by my changes, afaik) when
with some combinations of color settings, and usage of --bold, caused super
flakey color paninting in the pager. Downwards movements that trigger
scrolling vs. upwards movement in the pager would only apply bold to
selections when moving upwards. The bold state of the command completions in
the pager was flipping flops on and off, depending on if there is a description
on the preceding line.
Implement a lame fix by reseting the color to normal and applying a
different style on the rightmost ')' which seems to be what was influencing it.
Makes fish use terminfo for coloring the newline glich char.
Fixes various spots throughout fish where broken strtoi checks
were converting empty strings to zero. Zero is not a valid pid and
this was causing breakage as well when input.
Nix fish_wcstoi - wcstoimax does the same thing.
Improve comments and some general cleanup.
If an interactive job is started, and it is reaped within fish's
exit handler, we may attempt to print its status message after
cur_term has been set to NULL. This results in a crash.
This change makes fish only print the status message if cur_term is
not NULL.

Show the gist of what is going on during uninstall.
I had overlooked the uninstall target, with it mislabled as having

From automake NEWS:
New in 1.15:
* Improvements and refactorings in the install-sh script:
- It has been modernized, and now makes the following assumptions
*unconditionally*:
(1) a working 'dirname' program is available;
(2) the ${var:-value} shell parameters substitution works;
(3) the "set -f" and "set +f" shell commands work, and, respectively,
disable and enable shell globbing.
- The script implements stricter error checking, and now it complains
and bails out if any of the following expectations is not met:
(1) the options -d and -t are never used together;
(2) the argument passed to option -t is a directory;
(3) if there are two or more SOURCEFILE arguments, the
DESTINATION argument must be a directory.
This has gotten very out of sync with the project - autoupdate it and
integrate what autoscan found.
I checked with @zanchey - it looks like even our oldest RHEL 5 machines
have a new enough M4 to be able to handle what will be produced by
autoconf 2.68; also use a closer-to-modern version of that (2.69 was
released 2012!)
Neither m4 nor autoconf are required to build a fish release.
Update history docs.
Note - the omission of a mention of timezone was intentional. These were recorded as naive timestamps lacking timezone information in the first place.
Improves the grouping of multiline history entries
by sepearating the timestamps and history entires onto seperate lines.
Use wcsftime() Saves us a conversion, might as well.
- Comment out asciinema - people too often leave a link there.
- "Launch fish" is probably a stupid thing to have a first step.
- Combine the expected/actual result sections, maybe that was too tedious.
Another dev noticed that tests/printf.in was failing because they didn't have
the fr_FR.UTF-8 locale installed. Make that test more resilient by trying
other locales and if no suitable locale is found skipping the test.
The previous solution would not erase the previous bindings if
fish_vi_key_bindings was called with a mode argument. So if the user
switched to vi with a different initial mode, they'd keep their previous
bindings also.
Supersedes e89057b.
Some of these were defined in the shared bindings, some (like \cy yank)
were just literally duplicate in the same files.
This should _not_ change anything. In particular this does not remove
hardcoding of sequences (because terminfo might be wrong or the term
might need smkx).
Found with
```
function bind
set -l binds (builtin bind)
builtin bind $argv
set -l newbinds (builtin bind)
if set -q argv[1]; and not test "$argv[1]" = "--erase"
if test "$binds" = "$newbinds"
echo "Duplicate: " (string escape -- $argv)
end
end
end
```
The vi-bindings function would unconditionally erase all bindings,
making it impossible to call it last. This would disable the
mode-indicator (and in future also the cursor).
Make it so any argument to fish_vi_key_bindings stops it from erasing
bindings.
It would also be possible to demand an argument to erase (or to erase as
a separate step). but the usual case seems to be _switching_ to a set of bindings.
This didn't work on platforms where tput exists but can never accept
terminfo names. This includes the current versions of FreeBSD - it
used to do both, now it doesn't. So, fall back to the old termcap names
by (tput smso; or tput so). Add check for the tput program before we
even try.
Fix problem with Makefile not escaping 'echo' correctly
Support systems where 'tput' only works with termcap names
Adjust output. Shade out most run-of-the-mill output so you can't
miss warnigns and our status signposts amonst the .o files created.
The extra things `eval` does are all for code that runs
interactively. Because we just define a function, we don't need it.
This improves alias' performance by about 20-25% (0.783608s to 0.585585s
on about 500 aliases) and avoids triggering #3345.
This can be prohibitively slow on large repositories (minutes!).
While regrettable, no user is going to like waiting that long.
Work towards #3342, rerun of #3230.
Many thanks to @gladhorn for the idea!
Offering auto completion for existing commits is great, but on big
repositories, it suddenly becomes really slow, even with fast hard
disks, since each commit is read and then a line processed for it.
Instead limit to the last 500 commits (arbitrary number) which still
feels fast. Going back further in history can easily and more reasonably
done with git log etc.

In the C/POSIX locale EOF on the tty wasn't handled correctly due to a change
a few months ago to fix an unrelated problem with that locale. What is
surprising is that the core fish code doesn't explicitly depend on
input_common_readch returning WEOF if a character isn't seen within
`wait_on_escape_ms` after an escape.

I recently made a change to remove some no longer needed .gitignore rules
and generally improve the readability of that config file. Contributor
@floam noted that this config file was still too permissive and
ambiguous. This change adds additional refinements that should
a) make it easier for someone to understand why a file/directory is being
excluded, and
b) make it less likely that a mistake results in a file being inadvertently
excluded.
I noticed while doing a build that `git status` was reporting the `obj/`
directory had been modified. Add that to the list of ignored directories.
Remove a couple of build artifacts (`seq` and `set_color`) which aren't
created anymore. Break the ignored files into well defined groups with the
entries sorted in each group.
Only on the OS X travis build.
I can't reproduce it but I figure it's something to do
with test -e vs test -x or the echo -n in command substitution.
Oops.
This was erroneously omitted from the previous commit.
Now backspace in insert mode does backward-delete-char, in default mode
backward-char (i.e. no deleting, just moving). This is consistent with vim.
This undoes the inheritance since it shared too much.
The idea here is to share bindings that aren't something the editors we're inspired by do - there's no "execute" in vi.
The basic editing and moving bindings are now vi-style in vi-mode and emacs-style in default mode.
In particular, Screen and emacs' "ansi-term" behave like neovim in that
they just ignore the sequences, which leads to the terminal rendering
default color (most of the time white) instead.
Only one file belonging to fish-shell had DOS/bogus line endings,
with `git add' picking up changes after updating .gitattributes:
hostname.fish.
Unsurprisingly, it has code to support cygwin and was likely
worked on by a user on a Windows machine. This will help
such cases in the future.
Also, in pcre2-10.21/, there was RunTest.bat which was (correctly)
CRLF formatted. We don't use this batch script at all, so rather
than LF it or add an exception, blast it away like the other pcre2
files omitted from the repo.
There was a lot of very noisy output for things
we do not care about, particularly the echoing of clang commands,
installs, and doxygen output.
We now show output like " CXX src/fish.o" and not much else
unless there is a problem.
Add mechanism to show e.g. CXXFLAGS variables at top of build.

Commit acfd3801 included a legitimate bug fix and a second change that
didn't correct an actual bug but made the code more fragile. Revert the
second part of that commit (while also suppressing the uninitialized
variable compiler warning that caused the ill-advised change).
Just use static_cast directly instead of inscrutible "shortcut"
macro.
It was not always used and doesn't seem to do much besides scramble
things up; encountering CAST_INIT() in the code seems likely to lead
to head scratching due to the transformation taking place.
It was added to save folks typing the type twice, now with 100
columns available, let's roll that convenience macro back.
sockaddr_dl:
Perform reinterpret_cast<sockaddr_dl> conversion. The cast affected
alignment and looks fishy to a compiler (but it's fine). Ditch
C-style cast and communicate we're doing that on purpose.
Where we already manage to cover an enum entirely in a switch
statement such that default: cannot be reached, help ensure
it stays that way by condemning that route.
Also adjust a 'const' I came across that is ignored.
A common problem for users is that fish doesn't get a locale. This often
happens if systemd is used with getty and fish as login shell.
Fixes#277
Note that I (@krader) made editorial changes before merging this. For
example, running `make style` and otherwise changing long statements to a
series of shorter statements. So if there are any problems it is possible
I introduced them.
A user reported that fish was dying from a SIGSEGV when launched by the
sjterm terminal app. This was traced to a bug in sjterm passing an empty
argv array to the shell. Which, while technically legal, is very unusual
and a bad practice.
Fixes#3269
This change made clang-format apply to our JavaScript sources,
but we haven't yet agreed upon a JavaScript style guide. Once we
agree on one, we can include the JS files in the formatting pass too.
This reverts commit 799d8ddfc4.
Update docs for "brblack", "brwhite" existing.
We no longer mention colors like grey, brown and purple, which are aliases
for yellow, magenta, white/black. The color names still work but there
isn't a good argument for there being two ways to do that: especially in
the age of 24-bit terminals where one might expect yellow and brown or
magenta and purple to actually be different colors.
Copyedit rest of document for inaccuracies, strange advice, brevity (a lot
of "you" pronouns, for example.)
Document the color fallback feature (set_color 313554 blue) that's been
present quite a while.
The `set_color normal` text had a comment that caused
the example to wrap to the next line in an 80 column window.
Shorten the comment so the example fits on one line.
Fish assumed that it could use tparm to emit escapes to set colors
as long as the color was under 16 or max_colors from terminfo was 256::
if (idx < 16 || term256_support_is_native()) {
// Use tparm to emit color escape
writembs(tparm(todo, idx);
If a terminal has max_colors = 8, here is what happenened, except
inside fish:
> env TERM=xterm tput setaf 7 | xxd
00000000: 1b5b 3337 6d .[37m
> env TERM=xterm tput setaf 9 | xxd
00000000: 1b5b 3338 6d .[39m
The first escape is good, that second escape is not valid.
Bright colors should start at \e[90m:
> env TERM=xterm-16color tput setaf 9 | xxd
00000000: 1b5b 3931 6d .[91m
This is what caused "white" not to work in #3176 in Terminal.app, and
obviously isn't good for real low-color terminals either.
So we replace the term256_support_is_native(), which just checked if
max_colors is 256 or not, with a function that takes an argument and
checks terminfo for that to see if tparm can handle it. We only use this
test, because otherwise, tparm should be expected to output garbage:
/// Returns true if we think tparm can handle outputting a color index
static bool term_supports_color_natively(unsigned int c) { return max_colors >= c; }
...
if (term_supports_color_natively(idx) {
And if terminfo can't do it, the "forced" escapes no longer use the fancy
format when handling colors under 16, as this is not going to be compatible with
low color terminals. The code before used:
else {
char buff[16] = "";
snprintf(buff, sizeof buff, "\x1b[%d;5;%dm", is_fg ? 38 : 48, idx);
I added an intermediate format for colors 0-15:
else {
// We are attempting to bypass the term here. Generate the ANSI escape sequence ourself.
char buff[16] = "";
if (idx < 16) {
snprintf(buff, sizeof buff, "\x1b[%dm", ((idx > 7) ? 82 : 30) + idx + !is_fg * 10);
} else {
snprintf(buff, sizeof buff, "\x1b[%d;5;%dm", is_fg ? 38 : 48, idx);
}
Restores harmony to white, brwhite, brblack, black color names.
We don't want "white" to refer to color color #16, but to the
standard color #8. #16 is "brwhite".

This fixes several problems with how the builtin `history` command handles
arguments. It now complains and refuses to do anything if the user specifies
incompatible actions (e.g., `--search` and `--clear`). It also fixes a
regression introduced by previous changes with regard to invocations that
don't explicitly specify `--search` or a search term.
Enhances the history man page to clarify the behavior of various options.
This change is already far larger than I like so unit tests will be added
in a separate commit.
Fixes#3224.
Note: This fixes only a couple problems with the interactive `history
--delete` command in the `history` function. The main problem will be
dealt with via issue #31.
We were effectively inferring 256 color support **only**.
If terminfo reports 256 max_colors for this $TERM but
that is not named xterm or does not contain "256color" in name,
term256_support_is_native()'s result did not affect the recorded
support.

We don't seem to mention in the documentation that we were forcing
-t for all interactive uses. If we want to do that we should apply
that in the builtin.
history.fish reimplementing every option and doing things kind of
differently is a real pain and it's not clear if the docs are
referring to the or the wrapper script or both.
Attempting to execute something like `exec "$test"` results in a fish internal
token (a Unicode private use char) being printed in the resulting error
message. That's obviously not desirable as well as confusing.
Fixes#3187
Prior to this fix, when performing completions, we would prepend
the wildcard to the resulting files. When doing fuzzy completions,
we would take some wildcard segment, attempt to locate it in the
final completion, and then replace it with our fuzzy-matched directory.
With this fix, we pass along the "resolved so far" path, and prepend
that instead of doing "surgery" on the completion. This simplifies the
logic.

Someone running fish in an unusual locale reported that an `assert()` was

the builtin `complete` command wasn't adequately verifying its arguments.

The previous commit to add a `--with-timestamp` flag to the `history` command
caused me to notice the history function didn't recognize the new long option.
Neither did it recognize the short options for the builtin command. This
change fixes both of those issues.
I did some research and experiments. For good or bad the `bind` command
requires the use of wide char codepoints (e.g., \u1234) for non-ASCII
chars. So don't force the use of the POSIX locale, but do provide it as
an option for people who want to see the individual bytes rather than a
decoded wide char.
Simplify the format of the information displayed for each character. There
really isn't much point in providing decimal, octal, and hexadecimal. Just
print hex and symbolic representations.
Add an example `bind` command that a user can copy/paste.
Closes#3183
Another developer noticed that redirecting stdin of `fish_key_reader`
results in weird behavior. Which is not at all surprising. So add checks
to ensure stdin and stdout are attached to a tty.
Add some rudimentary unit tests for this program.
A discussion on Gitter proposed allowing the user to signal their desire to
exit fish_key_reader by pressing \cC or \cD twice in a row. This implements
that.
I also decided to refactor how signals are handled. Most notably receiving a
signal will no longer print a diagnostic message unless you've enabled
debugging with `-d2` (or higher level).
Improves experience during upgrades, accidentally running

In addition to fixing the setting of the locale to C/POSIX this also

to refactor the code to simplify one of the overly long functions I
introduced in my previous change.

I mixed things up with `netctl` somehow. Since the two are quite
different they do not have the same function, they should not have
the same completions.
I also find that I would be smarter to only display the relevent

we should only complete with enabled profile for completion for
instance. I don't know if the implemention is nice enough however.

The issue here is that when inserting a common prefix for e.g. a
substring match, we increase the amount of available candidates again to
things the user didn't want.
An example is in share/functions - a completion for "inter" would
previously expand to "__fish_" because it matched:
- __fish_config_interactive.fish
- __fish_print_interfaces.fish
- __fish_print_lpr_printers.fish
The completion afterwards would then show 189 possible matches, only
three of which (the above) actually matched the original "inter".
Fixes#3089.
Cppcheck was complaining about the `return val.c_str()` at the end of the
`wgettext()` function. That would normally a bug since the lifetime of
`val` ends when the function returns. In this particular case that's not
true because the string is interned in a cache. Nonetheless, rather than
suppress the lint warning I decided to modify the API to be more idiomatic.
In the process of fixing the aforementioned lint warning I fixed several other
lint errors in that module.
This required making our copy of `wgetopt()` compatible with the rest of
the fish code. Specifically, by removing its local definitions of the
"_" macro so it uses the same macro used everywhere else in the fish
code. The sooner we kill the use of wide chars the better.

This only eliminates errors reported by `make lint`. It shouldn't cause any

This change does remove several functions that are unused. It also removes the
`desc_arr` variable which is both unused and out of date with reality.
This speeds up the common case when IO is slow, e.g. when used with
sshfs.
We only use the short sha for figuring out whether the state is

sizeof wchar_t is two (e.g., Cygwin). In doing so it corrects several

Unicode proposal but are not allowed by the adopted standard.

Overwriting the user's clipboard by default is annoying and contributors
don't use it.
This is better served via an explicit binding that calls e.g. `xsel`.
Move to `string match` syntax from `grep` caused test to see if the Atom Package Manager is installed to always fail. This appears to fix the issue (tested on fish 2.3.0 with apm 1.6.0).
Previously, `--erase` would not accept any options and wouldn't read
"--" as option-separator. Now it does like every other "command", and it
could conceivably gain e.g. a "--prefix" option.
This change allows the user to specify the script name on the CLI in addition
to being redirected from stdin. It also adds a `-w` flag to write the modified
script to the original file.
This potentially leads to an unusable session (when fish_key_bindings is
set in config.fish to a value without corresponding function), so we
should take care.

I noticed that the `test_convert()` function was randomly failing when
run on OS X Snow Leopard. I tracked it down to the `mbrtowc()` function on
that OS being broken. Explicitly testing for UTF-8 prefixes that identify
a sequence longer than four bytes (which the Unicode standard made illegal
long ago) keeps us from having encoding errors on those OS's.
This also makes the errors reported by the `test_convert()` function actually
useful and readable.
Lastly, it makes it possible to build fish on OS X Snow Leopard.
This is quite ugly because the syntax is ugly, the documentation both
under- and overspecified at the same time (a BNF that isn't...) and it
has a lot of functionality.

It's currently too easy for someone to bork their shell by doing something
like `function test; return 0; end`. That's obviously a silly, contrived,
example but the point is that novice users who learn about functions are
prone to do something like that without realizing it will bork the shell. Even
expert users who know about the `test` builtin might forget that, say, `pwd`
is a builtin.
This change adds a `--shadow-builtin` flag that must be specified to
indicate you know what you're doing.
Fixes#3000
I'm doing this as part of fixing issue #2980. The code for managing tty modes
and job control is a horrible mess. This is a very tiny step towards improving
the situation.
The original `key_reader` program was useful but didn't do much that `xxd`
or `od -tx1z` didn't do. Furthermore, it wasn't built and installed by
default. This change adds features that make it superior to those programs
for decoding interactive key presses and makes it a first-class citizen
like the `fish_indent` program that is always available.
Fixes#2991
I'm going to modify these functions as part of dealing with issue #3000
and don't want those changes to be masked by running the files through
`make style`.
The fork (create new process) related debugging messages rely on an
undocumented env var and use `printf()` rather than `debug()`. There are
also errors in how the fork count is tracked that this fixes.
Fixes#2995
Some `oclint` errors regarding "useless parentheses" are meaningfull. But
the vast majority are bogus in as much as removing the parentheses reduces
readability. So fix a few of the egregious uses and otherwise suppress
that error.
I noticed that if I've previous done `make test` that a subsequent `make
style-all` attempts to restyle all the fish scripts in the *test* directory.
Those files are transient and not part of the git repository. Limit restyling
all fish scripts just to those in the *share* directory tree. There are a
couple elsewhere in the repo (e.g., *build_tools*) but they can be handled on
an individual basis.
This makes it easy for the user to request floating point output with the
desired number of digits after the decimal point (not to be confused with
significant digits).
Note that this is just a thin wrapper so someone can say `math -s3 10 / 3`
rather than `math "scale=3; 10 /3"`.
Resolves#1643
I missed restyling a few "switch" blocks to make them consistent with the rest
of the code base. This fixes that oversight. This should be the final step in
restyling the C++ code to have a consistent style. This also includes a few
trivial cleanups elsewhere.
I also missed restyling the "complete" module when working my way from a to z
so this final change includes restyling that module.
Total lint errors decreased 36%. Cppcheck errors went from 47 to 24. Oclint P2
errors went from 819 to 778. Oclint P3 errors went from 3252 to 1842.

For this change I decided to bundle the remaining modules that need to be

This also fixes a stupid mistake from an earlier commit where I didn't realize
that osx/config.h was meant to be included as a semi-static file in the
repository.
There was an extended discussion in https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/2904 about using a bright yellow background to make the cancelled command indicator, ^C, standout. The upshot was that standout (i.e., reversing fg/bg colors) mode should be used until themes are agumented with proper support for background colors and special characters.

Also, correct the Vi mode default escape timeout. I intended it to be 100 ms

fish_title currently outputs some escaped text, which can confuse

the previous command still on the line and we don't want to move the

Don't `#include "*.cpp"` modules in other cpp modules. I already took care

anti-pattern.
- Set PCRE2_SUBSTITUTE_OVERFLOW_LENGTH to get the required buffer length

Now that the IWYU cleanup has been merged compile all, not just a couple, of
the builtin modules independent of builtin.cpp. That is, no longer `#include
builtin_NAME.cpp` in builtin.cpp. This is more consistent, more in line with
what developers expect, and is likely to reduce mistakes.

Remove the "make iwyu" build target. Move the functionality into the

This ensures they can just be called and "the right thing" will happen -
fish_user_key_bindings will be executed, the variable will reflect the bindings.
This makes fish_mode_prompt rely on $fish_key_bindings instead.
fish_bind_mode is also set in default mode (only always "default"), so
it can't be used as the indicator.
I noticed that Doxygen was also complaining about the "<asis>" and "<bs>"
tags. So convert those to the backslash form like we did for "<outp>" in the
previous commit.
Doxygen has been warning that `<outp>` and `</outp>` are not valid XML/HTML commands since commit cb6d5d76 on 20016-04-04. That's primarily because there is at present no way to tell Doxygen to recognize new XML/HTML tags. The actual errors look like this:
```
.../string.doxygen:187: warning: Unsupported xml/html tag </outp> found
```
I hate build errors since they a) cause needless concern, and b) make it harder to notice when I've introduced a new error. So switch from XML/C## style markup to Doxygen style markup for the "outp" annotation.
The OS X Xcode IDE has a weird requirement that block comments preceding a
function or class definition must begin with three slashes rather than two if
you want the comment displayed in the "Quick Help" window.
Make the history code conform to the new style guide. Every change was
produced by clang-format (e.g., `make style`) with the exception of
comments which were manually reformatted. That has to be done by hand
since clang-format leaves comments alone other than to reflow comment
lines to get them below the allowed line length.
The total number of lines is reduced by 313 lines (13%) in the two
affected files. Line count is generally a poor metric but in this
case it reflects an increase in information density without a loss in
readability. Furthermore, the standardization of braces, whitespace,
and comment style will make it easier for people to read the code.
This reduces the number of warnings by `make lint` from 168 to 87 (a 48%
decrease). Making it much easier to focus on the substantive lint issues.
Further improvements are possible. For example, many comments are not
very helpful (e.g., they point out the obvious) or provide insufficient
detail. But those are beyond the scope of this change.
This is the first step in resolving issue #2902.
The readlink() function does not null terminate the path it returns.
Remove the OS X code that deals with a path buffer that is too short. For
one thing a loop isn't needed since we're told how big of a buffer

important it is so unlikely that the path will be longer than PATH_MAX
that if it is we should just give up.

I just noticed that depending on the state of your working tree there can be
one or more spaces after the modification token and the file name. If there is
more than one space that causes the `string split` to produce unexpected
output.
In keeping with the change made by @ridiculousfish earlier today modify
the `keyword_description()` function to return a const wchar_t pointer.
Also, simplify the `token_type_description()` function to use the recently
introduced mapping array. This changes the wording of many of the token
type descriptions. However, I can't see this as being a problem since
the original descriptions (e.g., "token_redirection") are no clearer to
someone not acquainted with the implementation.
Fish keywords can be quoted and split across lines. Prior to this change
`fish_indent` would retain such odd, obfuscated, formatting. This change
results in all keywords being converted to their canonical form.
This required fixing a bug: the keyword member of parse_node_t wasn't being
populated. This hadn't been noticed prior to now because it wasn't used.
Fixes#2921
This code represents only risk and does nothing useful for anything
that can compile fish.
In C++ situations where __STDC_VERSION__ is unset (as it should be),
fish was assuming we are on < C99 and setting it to __FUNCTION__.
Basically always, __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ ends up reaplaced by __FUNCTION__, this hurt
error message usefulness and richness.
__PRETTY_FUNCTION__: const thing::sub(int)
__FUNCTION__: sub
Prior to this fix, when completing a command that doesn't have a /, we
would prepend each component of PATH and then expand the whole thing. So
any special characters in the PATH would be interpreted when performing
tab completion.
With this fix, we pull the PATH resolution out of complete.cpp and
migrate it to expand.cpp. This unifies nicely with the CDPATH resolution
already in that file. This requires introducing a new expand flag
EXPAND_SPECIAL_FOR_COMMAND, which is analogous to EXPAND_SPECIAL_CD
(which is renamed to EXPAND_SPECIAL_FOR_CD). This flag tells expand to
resolve paths against PATH instead of the working directory.
Fixes#952
I believe apm must have been buggy - example output that I found online
showed `tr` was mangling paths with spaces in it. Should be fixed.
Also, use dscl on OS X in __fish_complete_users.fish like
__fish_print_users.fish already does.
When determining the old path, get the existing value in any scope,
not just the set scope. Also only complain about absolute paths:
relative paths are expected to be invalid sometimes.
Modify `fish_indent` to emit redirections without a space before the target of
the redirection; e.g., "2>&1" rather than "2>& 1" as the former is clearer to
humans.

- Add options to the autotools build to set the path for the "vendor"

directories.
- Remove the vendor_completions directory from the Xcode build, as
these are relocatable and compiling the paths in does not make sense.
This allows packaging tools like Homebrew and Nix to use a common

to make these available for programmatic discovery through `pkg-config`.

This is a quick and dirty conversion of the atypical, and undocumented,
logging done by env_universal_common.cpp to the usual `debug()` pattern. I
didn't want to drop the messages because they could be useful when
debugging future issues. So I simply converted them to the lowest debug
level using the normal debug() function.
Fixes#2887
Cppcheck has identified a lot of unused functions. This removes funcs that
are unlikely to ever be used. Others that might be useful for debugging I've
commented out with "#if 0".
Commit c0e8ad6 on 2015-10-02 to "Make vi bindings inherit the defaults"
inadvertently reverted commit b6b6de3. Fix that regression. And while I
hate to make "git blame" say I changed the entire file make the function
adhere to fish_indent style.
Since #2849 was merged, there are no further leaks detected by the
address sanitiser. This makes it a good target to enable for Travis,
which will enable regression testing.

Only match loaded modules when -r is specified.
Also adds /lib/modules/(uname -r)/misc to the search path.
This directory is used by Gentoo for package-provided modules
(such as the app-emulation/virtualbox-modules)
This fixes all memory leaks found by compiling with
clang++ -g -fsanitize=address and running the tests.
Method:
Ensure that memory is freed by the destructor of its respective container,
either by storing objects directly instead of by pointer, or implementing
the required destructor.
The existing implementation grows the $dirprev array without bounds. Besides
causing what would appear to be a memory leak it also makes the nextd and
prevd commands more expensive than they need to be. It also makes it harder to
create a useful "menu" cd command.
In addition to implementing a reasonable limit on the size of the $dirprev
array I've reformatted the code using fish_indent.
Update the documentation to include mentions of the $dirprev and $dirnext
variables as well as the limit on how much directory history is kept.
Fixes 2836
When explicitly asking for the fish version string the information
should go to stdout rather than stderr. Also, there is no reason to use
exit_without_destructors() rather than exit() in that code path. We
actually want the side-effects of exit() such as flushing stdout and
there aren't any threads or other things that could cause a normal exit
to fail when that function is run.
The early return skipped all cleanup.
This problem is a case for the classic "goto fail" paradigm, but this
change instead makes a few adjustments to take advantage of a previously
unused level of indentation to conditionally execute the success path.
The error message now prints the filename instead of "open",
which should be more idiomatic.
Tip:
This patch makes sense if viewed with `git show --ignore-space-change`.
The swap-selection-start-stop function goes to the other end of the highlighted text, the equivalent of `o' for vim visual mode.
Add binding to the swap-selection-start-stop function, `o' when in visual
mode.
Document swap-selection-start-stop, begin-selection, end-selection, kill-selection.
The relevant standards allow the mbtowc/mbrtowc functions to reject
non-ASCII characters (i.e., chars with the high bit set) when the locale
is C or POSIX. The BSD libraries (e.g., on OS X) don't do this but
the GNU libraries (e.g., on Linux) do. Like most programs we need the
C/POSIX locales to allow arbitrary bytes. So explicitly check if we're
in a single-byte locale (which would also include ISO-8859 variants)
and simply pass-thru the chars without encoding or decoding.

Address the feedback from the prior commit:
- Change the sense of return value testing to match more common
comparison idiom
- Test result of fchmod as well as fchown
- Change sense of return value testing around wrename as well
- Include errno where possible in error message
The function fchown is annotated with warn_unused_result. As
formerly used in the code, it would emit a compiler warning
```warning: ignoring return value of ‘fchown’, declared with
attribute warn_unused_result [-Wunused-result]```
This commit notes the return value and emits appropriate error/logging
messages if the call fails, creating more traceable results and
satisfying the compiler.
instead add a bit of information on how fish's configuration works for
the admin to etc/config.fish.
This means that fish is fully functional without /etc, which might be nice for "stateless" systems.
There is no longer a good reason to detect whether or not getopt_long()
is available. All UNIX implementations we're likely to run on have it. And
if we ever find one that doesn't the right thing to do is not fallback to
getopt() but to include the getopt_long() source in our package like we
do with the pcre2 library. Since it's licensed under LGPL we can legally
do so if it becomes necessary.
This partially addresses issue #2790.
Previously, when decoding UTF-8, we would first run through the
array to compute the correct size, then allocate a buffer of that size,
then run through the array again to fill the buffer, and then copy it
into a std::wstring. With this fix we can copy it into the string
directly, reducing allocations and only requiring a single pass.
We silently upgrade existing abbreviations and change the separator when
saving.
This does not yet warn when the user is using the old syntax.

This narrows the range of Unicode codepoints fish reserves for its own
use from U+E000 thru U+F8FE (6399 codepoints) to U+F600 thru U+F73F (320
codepoints). This is still not ideal since fish shouldn't be using any
Unicode private-use codepoints but it's a step in the right direction.
This partially addresses issue #2684.
Turns out some shells will alias which to be something function-aware,
but doing this on fish would blow up because it would call type which
would then call which which would then call type....

This was used to cache a narrow string representation
of commands, so that if certain system calls returned errors
after fork, we could output error messages without allocating
memory. But in practice these errors are very uncommon, as are
commands that have wide characters. It is simpler to do a best-effort
output of the wide string, instead of caching a narrow string
unconditionally.
Prior to this fix, read_ni would use parse_util_detect_errors
to lint the script to run, and then parser_t::eval() to execute it.
Both functions would parse the script into a parse tree. This allows
us to re-use the parse tree, improving perfomance.
Introduces a new template moved_ref which is like an rvalue reference.
This allows passing around objects while being explicit that the
receiver may acquire ownership. This will help reduce some allocations.
Much better to only encode the characters that are not URL-safe. This
also doesn't involve any forking, and it even handles newlines and NULs
in the input.
This is a file under version control, there's no reason it should be
listed here. Having it in .gitignore was causing tools like `ag` to
avoid looking at share/config.fish.
This allows "vendors" (i.e. third-party upstreams interested in
supporting fish) to add auto-loaded functions and eager-loaded
configuration "snippets", while still allowing both the user and the administrator to
fully override all of that.
This has been inspired by systemd's configuration hierarchy, and implements a similar scheme
whereby files with the same name in higher-ranking directories override files in lower-ranking ones.
Fixes#1956
I noticed while fixing issue #2702 that the fish program being tested
was sourcing config.fish files outside of the current build. This also
happens when Travis CI runs the tests but isn't an issue there because
of how Travis is configured to execute the tests.
I also noticed that running `make test` was polluting my personal fish
history; which will become a bigger problem if and when the fishd universal
var file is moved from $XDG_CONFIG_HOME to $XDG_DATA_HOME.
This change makes it possible for an individual to run the tests on
their local machine secure in the knowledge that only the config.fish and
related files from their git repository will be used and doing so won't
pollute their personal fish history.
Resolves#469
pcre2_substitute() now sets the output buffer length to PCRE2_UNSET (~0)
if the output buffer is determined to be too small. This change keeps
track of the buffer size separately where pcre2 can't touch it.
A better fix would be to let pcre2 tell fish what size buffer it needs.
This can be done with PCRE2_SUBSTITUTE_OVERFLOW_LENGTH, but this
requires pcre2 10.21 or later (released January 12), which may be too
new to introduce as a dependency at this point.

Expand globs to zero arguments (nullglob) only for set, for and count.
The warning about failing globs, and setting the accompanying $status,
now happens regardless of mode, interactive or not.
It is assumed that the above commands are the common cases where
nullglob behaviour is desirable.
More importantly, doing this with `set` is a real feature enabler,
since the resulting empty array can be passed on to any command.
The previous behaviour was actually all nullglob (since commit
cab115c8b9), but this was undocumented;
the failglob warning was still printed in interactive mode,
and the documentation was bragging about failglob behaviour.
Fixes the invocation of a user-specified browser by the `help` command on Cygwin.
- Use `cygstart` to launch the browser with escaped quotes to avoid problems with spaces in the path to the browser, (e.g. Program Files).
- Use `cygpath` to convert the base help dir to a Windows path before constructing the fie URL to pass to the browser.
The values for notification hooks remain available as comments, but this

The argv argument may be modified on calls to exchange within the function and should not be const qualified (it's not true from the caller's point of view).
On arm, wchar_t is unsigned, and C++11 and newer disallow implicit

This changes the default escape timeout for the default keybindings (emacs
mode) to 300ms and the default for vi keybindings to 10ms.
I couldn't resist fixing a few nits in the fish_vi_key_bindings.fish file
since I was touching it to set the escape timeout.
All versions of fish prior to this change silently discarded anything written
to stderr while source a config.fish file. Apparently just to avoid having
the source command display an error if the file did not exist. This can mask
real problems. So instead this change explicitly checks whether the file is
readable and silently skips sourcing it if it isn't.
Resolves issue #2702.
This fixes all but one of the warnings documented in issue #2685. The
sole remaining warning is from the
string split '' abc
example in doc_src/string.txt. That example results in the man page
displaying
string split {} abc
I leave it to someone else to fix that problem (I'll open an issue
specifically for it since it took some effort to track down the source
of the warning).
Resolves issue #2685.
It used to be that way and we recommend `set fish_greeting` (i.e. set to
empty) in the docs - possibly since we check if the variable is defined
on upgrade.
My previous commit failed in the travis-ci environment despite passing on my
local computer. This appears to be due to expect timing out looking for the
expected input. See if increasing the expect timeout slightly fixes the
problem.
Introduce a "fish_escape_delay_ms" variable to allow the user to configure the
delay used when seeing a bare escape before assuming no other characters will
be received that might match a bound character sequence. This is primarily
useful for vi mode so that a bare escape character (i.e., keystroke) can
switch to vi "insert" to "normal" mode in a timely fashion.
Rather than storing short and long options separately, using
a complicated set of invariants, store them in a single string
and use an explicit type complete_option_type_t to track how they
are interpreted.
This was a "cache" of dubious value that was also very confusing.
The idea was to express in one place all of the short options that
were allowed for a command, in a big string. But it's simpler to
just construct that on-demand by walking the list of
complete_entry_opt_t.
Also remove some other dead code as part of cleanup.
This is meant to make it clear that fish cannot control the terminal
window background color. It also augments the set_color documentation to
describe how it decides which color the terminal can display.

To implement this mostly as a wrapper around pactl, we add the list of
commands for this to that. It's 90% the same anyway. (This means that
`pactl suspend ` will complete files instead of commands like `pactl
banana ` would, but neither is correct)
This fails on e.g. an abbr that uses `env a=b`, like the included test demonstrates.
Unfortunately it decreases the speed again (2s vs 2.2s vs 4s original),
but correctness is more important.
- Replace __fish_abbr_escape with `string escape`
- Don't double-parse the key
- Replace IFS magic with string
Together, this seems to speed it up by a factor of about 2.
Unfortunately, nvim will, even when running in a terminal that supports
it, swallow the sequences whole, rendering the displayed text _white_.
This means falling back to 256 colors is the lesser evil as at least a
blue-ish color will display as blue while a red-ish will be red, instead
of both showing white.
nvim's behavior does _not_ change depending on
$NVIM_TUI_ENABLE_TRUE_COLOR or any other option I could find and neovim-qt
exhibits the same behavior.
Fixes#2600.
The fix for #2075 inadvertently started unescaping the strings emitted
from `commandline -b`. Only strings emitted with the `-o` flag are
supposed to be unescaped.
Fixes#2210.
If you have a prompt preceded by a new line, you'll get a line full of spaces instead of an empty line above your prompt. This doesn't make a difference in normal usage, but copying and pasting your terminal log becomes a pain. This commit clears that line, making it an actual empty line.
The random builtin command may or may not produce values with a truly
random distribution. So make the documentation reflect that reality. Also,
make the command consistent with similar shells (e.g., bash, zsh) which
produce a range of [0..32767].
Resolves issue #1272.
Before this change, `fish ./test.fish` would fully resolve the
relative paths and symlinks of test.fish, as reported by `status -f`.
However `source` would not. With this change, both cases return relative
paths. `realpath` may be used by scripts to resolve them.
Fixes#2643
This patch is currently floated from the NixOS side as part of
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/12000, but prior versions of the
hook ignore anything but the first argument anyway, so this is
backwards-compatible.
* Add a note to the `--wrap` docs saying that wrapping only works when
specifying completions for commands, not for paths.
* Add more info about how `--arguments` is handled.
* Indicate which options can be repeated in the usage lines.
* Reorder the options in usage slightly to group better.
* Reorder the option descriptions to match the order as seen in usage.
* Update some of the option descriptions.
* Fix the documentation for -C to show that it must be `-CSTRING`
instead of `-C STRING`.
* Document the behavior of `-C` with no argument.
* Tweak some of the explanatory text after the option list.
* Delete `--authoritative` and `--unauthoritative` from the
documentation entirely. Those options appear to not actually do
anything in the new parser.
This skips the weird dance where we'd define a simple handler and then
later overwrite with a fancier one, once the first event came in.
It turns out that isn't necessary, as it doesn't actually improve
startup speed because the checks needed to define fancier handlers are fast.
In case we are non-interactive, still define the simple handler, and
keep the default handler for users to switch to.
My PR #2578 had the unexpected side-effect of altering the tty modes of
commands run via "fish -c command" or "fish scriptname". This change fixes
that; albeit incompletely. The correct solution is to unconditionally set
shell tty modes if stdin is attached to a tty and restore the appropriate
modes whenever an external command is run -- regardless of the path used to
run the external command. The proper fix should be done as part of addressing
issues #2315 and #1041.
Resolves issue #2619
Increase the delay between seeing an escape character and giving up on
whether additional characters that match a key binding are seen. I'm
setting the value to 500 ms to match the readline library. We don't need
such a large window for sequences transmitted by a terminal (even over ssh
where network delays can be a problem). However, we can't expect humans to
reliably press the escape key followed by another key with an inter-char
delay of less than ~250 ms based on my testing and research. A value of
500 ms provides a nice experience even for people using "fish_vi_mode"
bindings as a half second to switch from insert to normal mode is still
fast enough that most people won't even notice.
Resolves#1356
While investigating issue #2619 my first thought was that the problem
had something to do with the "is_interactive_session" global variable.
That preliminary conclusion appears to be wrong (i.e., the problem
lies elsewhere). However, that hypothesis caused me to look at function
"fish_parse_opt" and other mentions of "is_interactive_session".
I decided to take the opportunity to simplify and improve the style of
"fish_parse_opt" since I just spent an hour reviewing the code that
references "is_interactive_session". For example, the "has_cmd" variable
isn't really needed. And there is inconsistent whitespace not to mention
confusion about bool's versus int's and zero versus NULL.
Rather than returning a list of productions and an index,
return the relevant production directly from the rule function.
Also introduce a tag value (replacing production_idx) which tracks
information like command decorations, etc. with more clarity.
That's probably the part where commit hashes are most used, we can add
the other subcommands later.
This generates a _lot_ of options, so hooking it up everywhere would be
unwise, though our pager helps quite nicely with filtering - typing
"Branch" will filter out the commits, and typing other things will
filter the subjects, which is quite cool.
This turns '\040' into a space. /etc/mtab also supports other
escapes ("\\" for backslash, "\011" for tab), but I can't find
documentation for those in fstab.
When replacing the existing fish process with a new process it is
important to restore the temrinal modes to what they were when fish
started running. We don't want any tweaks done for the benefit of fish
(e.g., disabling ICRNL mode) to bleed thru to an "exec"ed command.
Resolves#2609
This adds blockdevices (and directories) and fixes the regexes to no
longer include comments but include UUID= and LABEL=, which at least
util-linux mount understands.
It also shouldn't fail on systems without fstab any longer (like default OSX).
Fixes#2606.
* Add missing options to `git clone` in order to make the suggestions as
similar to the manual (https://git-scm.com/docs/git-clone) as

Unfortunately, there's no standard way to detect support (importantly,
terminfo doesn't encode it), but there's a variety of terminals that
support it that we can detect.
It's better than letting this functionality go to waste.
Check KONSOLE_PROFILE_NAME instead of DBUS_SESSION because Konsole can be compiled without dbus support.
Check ITERM_SESSION_ID's format for 24bit support
This has changed since the last release, just like 24bit support. So if
we check one, we get the other.
If stdio is dead due to EPIPE, there's no great reason to spew a stack dump.
This will still write an error to stderr if stdout dies. This might be
undesirable, but changing that should be considered separately.
It is critical that we ensure our interactive tty modes are in effect at
the earliest possible moment. This achieves that goal and is harmless if
stdin is not tied to a tty. The reason for doing this is to ensure that
\r characters are not converted to \n if we're running on the slave side
of a pty controlled by a program like tmux that is stuffing keystrokes
into the pty before we issue our first prompt.
The special token "normal" should not be in the basic sixteen color table
because a) it is not a color, and b) it is special cased with the result of
resetting the terminal colors (usually via a ANSI X3.64 CSI [0m sequence).
This adds support for the ANSI x3.64 "bright" colors in the basic sixteen
color palette. This is especially useful when trying to use the base colors
as a background color. The "bright" variants tend to be more useful as
background colors compared to the non-bright variants.
This also fixes a bug in so far as palette number 7 is actually grey and
not white whereas palette number 15 is white. At least on the terminal
emulators on which I've tested this change (Ubuntu xterm & uxterm, Mac
OS X Terminal & iTerm2).
Resolves issue #1464.
* Make sure that the `git remote` subcommands are not repeatedly
suggested (that is do not suggest a subcommand if there already is one).

appropriate.

This does a number of things:
- Removing trailing space from suggested repos for hg.
- Use the string builtin for hg completions.
- Add more internal merge tools to hg completion.
- Enable completions for abbreviated hg commands.
- Stop completing a deprecated hg branches option.
- Properly match the hg subcommand when preceeded by global switches.
- Stop completing deprecated hg glog.
- Complete hg config instead of showconfig.
- Properly complete when global switches are before the hg command.
- Properly handle the repository switch for hg completions.
- Properly handle the hg global switch cwd.
We identify when the universal variable file has changed out from under us by
comparing a bunch of fields from its stat: inode, device, size, high-precision
timestamp, generation. Linux aggressively reuses inodes, and the size may be
the same by coincidence (which is the case in the tests). Also, Linux
officially has nanosecond precision, but in practice it seems to only uses
millisecond precision for storing mtimes. Thus if there are three or more
updates within a millisecond, every field we check may be the same, and we are
vulnerable to the ABA problem. I believe this explains the occasional test
failures.
The solution is to manually set the nanosecond field of the mtime timestamp to
something unlikely to be duplicated, like a random number, or better yet, the
current time (with nanosecond precision). This is more in the spirit of the
timestamp, and it means we're around a million times less likely to collide.
This seems to fix the tests.
Currently if there is a conflict with two manpages having the same
name, one completion will override the other. But if one can be parsed
and the other can't the one with parsed results will always have a
higher priority.
It seems smart to only let files be parsed that are clearly
manpage files. Other files wouldn't be openend by man so
I think it is safe to guess that only these files are man
pages.
input_mapping_execute, when passed false for allow_commands, will return
R_NULL. However currently it does this unconditionally, even if we don't
have any commands. This defeats our read-ahead optimization, so we
always read and process one byte at a time. This caused pasting to be
much slower.
Fixes#2215
If we are cd'ing into a directory, and the directory has only one
child which is itself a directory, the autosuggestion should
descend as far as it can.
Fixes#2531
Allows the length of each shortened path component to be customized by setting the `fish_prompt_pwd_dir_length` variable to the number of characters to include (plus a leading dot because that's special). Maintains the default behavior of shortening path components to just one character. You can also set `fish_prompt_pwd_dir_length` to an empty or invalid value or 0 to disable shortening completely.
Previously 'set -ql' would only look for variables in the
immediate local scope. This was not very useful. It's also
arguably surprising, since a 'set -l' in a function, followed
by a 'set -ql' in a child block, would fail. There was also no
way to check for a function-scoped variable, since omitting the
scope would also pull in global variables.
We could revisit this and introduce an explicit function scope.
Fixes#2502
This isn't pretty, but it fails for, as far as I can see, no _real_
reason.
It doesn't seem to be possible to trigger the failure in real usage, no
matter how fast you press the ESC key followed by something else.
So now this is known and constant travis emails don't help it in any way.
New implementation of migration code within the history_t class will
copy the contents of the old fish_history found in the config directory
to its new location in the data directory. The old file is left intact.
This is done only in the event that a fish_history is not already found in
the data directory ($XDG_DATA_HOME/fish or ~/.local/share/fish).
The fish_history file is now located in the "data"
directory ($XDG_DATA_HOME/fish or ~/.local/share/fish),
accessible using the function `path_get_data`.
(This commit also cleans trailing whitespace in the source file.)
Add new functions path_get_data and path_create_data which parallel existing
functions path_get_config and path_create_data. The new functions refer to
XDG_DATA_HOME, if it is defined, or ./local/share if not.
Modify history_filename to use the new function path_get_data.
As a consequence, fish_history will now be located in XDG_DATA_HOME,
not XDG_CONFIG_HOME.
Note that these changes mirror what is already used in
fish-shell/share/tools/create_manpage_completions.py, which stores the
completions in XDG_DATA_HOME
This change matches recommendations in the xdg basedir spec at
http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-0.7.html
($XDG_DATA_HOME defines the base directory relative to which user specific data
files should be stored. If $XDG_DATA_HOME is either not set or empty, a default
equal to $HOME/.local/share should be used.)
It addresses suggestions from the following issues:
1. Don't put history in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME (closes#744)
https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/744
2. Fish is placing non-config files in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME #1257https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/1257
3. Move non-config data out of $XDG_CONFIG_HOME #1669https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/1669
This reduces code duplication and adds some previously unavailable
bindings that don't quite _violate_ the vi-principle (like
prevd-or-backward-word on alt-left) and matches other "impure" bindings
like \cf for forward-word (a quite emacs-ish binding) we already have.
Fixes#2412Fixes#2472Fixes#2255
For cygwin, you can't `cd C:`, so a prompt of "C:/Something" is
misleading.
For OSX, we dereference symlinks elsewhere
This also simplifies prompt_pwd quite a bit.
Instead of duplicating the script invocation across targets,
put it into a separate target and add dependencies. This also
requires moving its output into the SHARED_DERIVED_FILE_DIR
(which may be undocumented)?
Not for _everything_ because that causes too many options to be
generated (which is an issue for git as it is), but for modified, staged
and added files - which is where it is most useful.
Fixes#901 as far as I'm concerned.
git has options that can appear before commands, but not all of
them, and some of them need an argument. This means
`__fish_seen_subcommand_from` will give too many false-positives, while
`[ (count $cmd) -eq 2 ]` will give too many false-negatives.
Instead go through all arguments and check if they are in that list of
options that can be before a command and skip the argument for them, if
any.
Teach Xcode to run new script xcode_version_gen.sh before building
the fish_shell and fish_indent targets. The script generates file
fish-build-version.h for inclusion by fish_version.cpp.
Note that Xcode always runs the script because of the phony target
named force-fish-build-version.h, but fish-build-version.h is only
touched if the contents of FISH-BUILD-VERSION-FILE change.
Fixes#890
This is to the benefit of systems with ancient GNU sed, which does not
recognize "-E", but only "-r".
Fixes#2305 - even if it doesn't replace all `sed -E` invocations in the
codebase, the others are unlikely to occur on CentOS and other similarly
crusty systems.
`__fish_apm_using_command` was incorrectly taking lists of commands, new function added to support multiple a command having synonyms.
Simplify switch statement
Also remove superfluous function.
Allow for multiple completions after a command
Useful for removing packages, will complete for more than one.
Code improvements
`sort -u | uniq` is completely redundant, calling grep for every
status-pair is unnecessary, `contains` doesn't take the word "in" as
special.
None of these are critical and there's basically no performance benefit
since this function is utterly dominated by hg calls.
This doesn't add anything except slowing the function down by about
33%. Checking for a branch is just as good and that is displayed in the
prompt anyway.

Fix xcode include paths for pcre2.h
According to the newer code below:
xdg_data_home = os.getenv('XDG_DATA_HOME', '~/.local/share')
the actual default path is ~/.local/share/fish/generated_completions/
This is used in at least 4 places, all of which have a bug in that they
print "options" as a valid repo. It seems better to fix it once,
especially given that there are tons of AUR helpers and pacman wrappers,
all of which might need this info.
net_tools, which provides `ifconfig` and `netstat`, among other things,
has last been updated in 2013. This means `ifconfig` on linux is
basically dead.
Instead of ifconfig, use `ip` (from iproute2), which is much more powerful and
provides a much more annoying commandline syntax.
Instead of netstat, just look at /sys/class/net.
This change eliminates global variables like stdout_buffer. Instead we wrap up
the IO information into a new struct io_streams_t, and thread that through
every builtin. This makes the intent clearer, gives us a place to hang new IO
data, and eliminates the ugly global state management like builtin_push_io.
This adds the new builtin 'string' which supports various string
manipulation and matching algorithms, including PCRE based regular
expressions.

Make overriding cnf-handler work
Do this by renaming the __fish_command_not_found_handler used during

check if __fish_command_not_found_handler has been defined and skip the
setup of the normal one.
Now disabling cnf-handling can be done via defining an empty

This adds a special colorscheme and prompt function guaranteed to work

shadowed with global ones so they don't pollute our nice capable terms.
Cygwin FIFOs do not support more than one reader, so avoid them on this

wrapper scripts are common, and aliasing them to `fossil` is also fairly
common. The lack of the `command fossil` pattern in the completions script
meant that the actual fossil command might not be called, but rather the
alias. This problem has been fixed by introducing a __fish_fossil command,
similar to the __fish_hg and __fish_git commands in those completion shells,
that does this, and converting all explicit fossil calls in the completion
script to use __fish_fossil instead
* Because there's now a centralized location for calling Fossil, I also moved
all of the repetitive stderr redirects that function.
This results in more robust and cleaner code.
When an error occurs midway through a token, like abc(def,
make the caret point at the location of the error (i.e. the paren)
instead of at the beginning of the token.
In a few places, we need to add a prefix to completions that
replace the token. This change factors that logic into its
own function prepend_token_prefix.
This was too simplistic, among other things it completed things that
looked like key ids but weren't, didn't turn "\x3a" back into
colons (which made the argument invalid)....
gpg is weird.
Might fix#2150
Bit one: Make all the fossil command invocations throw away stderr so we don't
get annoying messages when not in a repository.
Also:
- Move checkout into alphabetical order.
- Fix ls to complete against tags for -r option, not no option.
- Add missing option to delete command.
- Make commit complete against modified files.
- Make add only complete against extra files.
- Remove now ununused function to list extra & modified files.
- Add -f option in a number of places where it seemd appropriate.
Rather than trying to detect Unicode support from the environment, check
the printable width of characters in the current locale before deciding
on whether to use them.
Closes#1927.
This is very ugly because makedepend has no native support
for building outside the source tree. It always wants to
prepend 'src/' to the object file path. So instead we have
to cons up a new source tree, with the sources files at the
root, and run makedepend on that.
This change moves source files into a src/ directory,
and puts object files into an obj/ directory. The Makefile
and xcode project are updated accordingly.
Fixes#1866

__fish_complete_mime used in that way is a no-op on current fish anyway,
and emacs is by no means useful for just text files (it can also view
PDFs, images, ...).
Otherwise this completion currently only offers options, not arguments.
For most these are pretty much incompletable (lisp code, for example),
and for others it's just not all that useful.

This used to be a function because we didn't have complete -w
Use that and it becomes a bit simpler.
This also simplifies the code in a few other ways (like removing a
useless-use-of-cat)
and adds comments about a few edgecases.
Declaring errno as an extern int breaks when errno is implemented
as a macro (as is allowed by POSIX). Specifically it breaks
building fish-shell on Android.
New sample prompt from Acidhub (github.com/acidhub)
This prompt show user|path (full), and a small symbol to
show last command status.
If in a git repository, it's show after the path several
symbols to indicate the branch status and the branch name.
Very handy to me so far.

changed `function __trap_handler_EXIT --on-exit %self` to `function __trap_handler_EXIT --on-process-exit %self`
I'm guessing the on-exit syntax was from an older version? Trapping EXIT with that syntax caused errors.
The following behaviour is added:
- an empty pushd exchanges the top two directories in the stack;
- pushd +<n> rotates the stack so that the n-th directory (counting from the left of the list shown by dirs, starting with zero) is at the top;
- pushd -<n> rotates the stack so that the nth directory (counting from the right of the list shown by dirs, starting with zero) is at the top.
This reverts commit cd7f1a15f8.
Contemporary Cygwin systems provide the correct symlinks on both 32-bit
and 64-bit installations to allow the transparent use of libncursesw as
libncurses.
Reversion of #1454.
When performing wildcard expansion with a literal path segment,
instead of enumerating the files in the directory, simply apply the
path segment as if we found the directory and continue on. This
enables us to expand strings that contain unreadable directory
components (common with $HOME) and also improves performance, since
we don't waste time enumerating directories unnecessarily. Adds
a test too.
Fixes#2099
1. When run with no arguments, make abbr do the equivalent
of `abbr --show`
2. Enable "implicit add", e.g. `abbr gco git checkout`
3. Teach `abbr --show` to not use quotes for simple cases
4. Teach abbr to output -- when the abbreviation has
leading dashes
Add some basic tests to abbr too.
Add a new function fish_mode_prompt which (if it is defined) has its output
prepended to the left prompt. Rather than replacing the prompt wholesale, make
fish_vi_mode enable this function by setting a variable __fish_vi_mode. This
enables vi mode to interoperate nicely with custom prompts. Users who want
to change how the mode is reported can either redefine this function or
erase it entirely. Fixes#1988.
Prior to this fix, if you exported a variable in one scope
and then unexported it in the next, it would remain exported.
Example:
set -gx VAR 1
function foo; set -l VAR; env; end
foo
Here 'VAR' would be exported to 'env' because we failed to
notice that the env var is shadowed by an unexported variable.
This occurred at env var computation time, not in env_set!
Fixes#2132
- Add four new functions: forward-bigword, backward-bigword,
kill-bigword, backward-kill-bigword
- Add new enum move_word_style_whitespace and related state machine
method
- Change vi key bindings to operate on bigwords: B, gE, W, E, dW, diW,
daW, dE, dB, dgE, cW, ciW, caW, cE, cB, cgE, yW, yiW, yaW, yE, yB,
ygE
su does not reset XDG_RUNTIME_DIR, which means that XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
may point to directories that the user does not have permission
to access. Similarly there is no guarantee that XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
points to a directory that actually exists. Rather than try to
handle these issues, we simply ignore them, effectively disabling
realtime uvar notifications. Fixes#1955.
Notification is sent using an OSC 777 escape sequence as described at
http://known.phyks.me/2014/local-notifications-for-weechat-and-urxvt.
The specific notification is crafted to match that emitted by bash
when running under Fedora 22 with the "vte-profile" RPM installed.
See the code for "__vte_prompt_command" starting at
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/vte291.git/tree/vte291-command-notify.patch#n307
to see exactly what bash produces. My approach is, however, a bit
more paranoid about control characters embedded in commands.
Gnome-terminal 3.16 responds to this escape sequence by posting a
desktop notification if the containing terminal window does not have
focus. This lets the user know that a long-running background command
has completed. Job notification is promoted as a Fedora 22 feature
(http://fedoramagazine.org/terminal-job-notifications-in-fedora-22-workstation/),
so it would be good for fish users to be benefit from it.
Conversely, anyone who does not want this feature can use "functions
--erase __notify_vte_command_completed" to turn it off.
Before this fix, `function -a arg1 name1` would produce a
function named 'arg1'. After this fix, it will produce a
function named 'name'. See #2068 for more.
When declaring a function using the function "function", the options must follow, not precede, the function name.
The examples demonstrate this syntax, but the synopsis previously showed the options preceding the name.
Please tell us which fish version you are using by executing the following:
fish --version
echo $version
Please tell us which operating system and terminal you are using. The output of `uname -a` and `echo $TERM` may be helpful in this regard although other commands might be relevant in your specific situation.
Please tell us if you tried fish without third-party customizations by executing this command and whether it affected the behavior you are reporting:
sh -c 'env HOME=$(mktemp -d) fish'
Tell us how to reproduce the problem. Including an asciinema.org recording is useful for problems that involve the visual display of fish output such as its prompt.
fish 3 is a major release, which introduces some breaking changes alongside improved functionality. Although most existing scripts will continue to work, they should be reviewed against the list below.
## Notable non-backward compatible changes
- Process and job expansion has largely been removed. `%` will no longer perform these expansions, except for `%self` for the PID of the current shell. Additionally, job management commands (`disown`, `wait`, `bg`, `fg` and `kill`) will expand job specifiers starting with `%` (#4230, #1202).
-`set x[1] x[2] a b`, to set multiple elements of an array at once, is no longer valid syntax (#4236).
- A literal `{}` now expands to itself, rather than nothing. This makes working with `find -exec` easier (#1109, #4632).
- Literally accessing a zero-index is now illegal syntax and is caught by the parser (#4862). (fish indices start at 1)
- Successive commas in brace expansions are handled in less surprising manner. For example, `{,,,}` expands to four empty strings rather than an empty string, a comma and an empty string again (#3002, #4632).
-`for` loop control variables are no longer local to the `for` block (#1935).
- Variables set in `if` and `while` conditions are available outside the block (#4820).
- Local exported (`set -lx`) vars are now visible to functions (#1091).
- The new `math` builtin (see below) does not support logical expressions; `test` should be used instead (#4777).
- Range expansion will now behave sensibly when given a single positive and negative index (`$foo[5..-1]` or `$foo[-1..5]`), clamping to the last valid index without changing direction if the list has fewer elements than expected.
-`read` now uses `-s` as short for `--silent` (à la `bash`); `--shell`'s abbreviation (formerly `-s`) is now `-S` instead (#4490).
-`cd` no longer resolves symlinks. fish now maintains a virtual path, matching other shells (#3350).
-`source` now requires an explicit `-` as the filename to read from the terminal (#2633).
- Arguments to `end` are now errors, instead of being silently ignored.
- The names `argparse`, `read`, `set`, `status`, `test` and `[` are now reserved and not allowed as function names. This prevents users unintentionally breaking stuff (#3000).
- The `fish_user_abbreviations` variable is no longer used; abbreviations will be migrated to the new storage format automatically.
- The `FISH_READ_BYTE_LIMIT` variable is now called `fish_byte_limit` (#4414).
- Environment variables are no longer split into arrays based on the record separator character on startup. Instead, variables are not split, unless their name ends in PATH, in which case they are split on colons (#436).
- The `history` builtin's `--with-time` option has been removed; this has been deprecated in favor of `--show-time` since 2.7.0 (#4403).
- The internal variables `__fish_datadir` and `__fish_sysconfdir` are now known as `__fish_data_dir` and `__fish_sysconf_dir` respectively.
## Deprecations
With the release of fish 3, a number of features have been marked for removal in the future. All users are encouraged to explore alternatives. A small number of these features are currently behind feature flags, which are turned on at present but may be turned off by default in the future.
A new feature flags mechanism is added for staging deprecations and breaking changes. Feature flags may be specified at launch with `fish --features ...` or by setting the universal `fish_features` variable. (#4940)
- The use of the `IFS` variable for `read` is deprecated; `IFS` will be ignored in the future (#4156). Use the `read --delimiter` option instead.
- The `function --on-process-exit` switch will be removed in future (#4700). Use the `fish_exit` event instead: `function --on-event fish_exit`.
-`$_` is deprecated and will removed in the future (#813). Use `status current-command` in a command substitution instead.
-`^` as a redirection deprecated and will be removed in the future. (#4394). Use `2>` to redirect stderr. This is controlled by the `stderr-nocaret` feature flag.
-`?` as a glob (wildcard) is deprecated and will be removed in the future (#4520). This is controlled by the `qmark-noglob` feature flag.
## Notable fixes and improvements
### Syntax changes and new commands
- fish now supports `&&` (like `and`), `||` (like `or`), and `!` (like `not`), for better migration from POSIX-compliant shells (#4620).
- Variables may be used as commands (#154).
- fish may be started in private mode via `fish --private`. Private mode fish sessions do not have access to the history file and any commands evaluated in private mode are not persisted for future sessions. A session variable `$fish_private_mode` can be queried to detect private mode and adjust the behavior of scripts accordingly to respect the user's wish for privacy.
- A new `wait` command for waiting on backgrounded processes (#4498).
-`math` is now a builtin rather than a wrapper around `bc` (#3157). Floating point computations is now used by default, and can be controlled with the new `--scale` option (#4478).
- Setting `$PATH` no longer warns on non-existent directories, allowing for a single $PATH to be shared across machines (eg via dotfiles) (#2969).
-`while` sets `$status` to a non-zero value if the loop is not executed (#4982).
- Command substitution output is now limited to 10 MB by default, controlled by the `fish_read_limit` variable (#3822). Notably, this is larger than most operating systems' argument size limit, so trying to pass argument lists this size to external commands has never worked.
- The machine hostname, where available, is now exposed as the `$hostname` reserved variable. This removes the dependency on the `hostname` executable (#4422).
- Bare `bind` invocations in config.fish now work. The `fish_user_key_bindings` function is no longer necessary, but will still be executed if it exists (#5191).
-`$fish_pid` and `$last_pid` are available as replacements for `%self` and `%last`.
### New features in commands
-`alias` has a new `--save` option to save the generated function immediately (#4878).
-`bind` has a new `--silent` option to ignore bind requests for named keys not available under the current terminal (#4188, #4431).
-`complete` has a new `--keep-order` option to show the provided or dynamically-generated argument list in the same order as specified, rather than alphabetically (#361).
-`exec` prompts for confirmation if background jobs are running.
-`funced` has a new `--save` option to automatically save the edited function after successfully editing (#4668).
-`functions` has a new ` --handlers` option to show functions registered as event handlers (#4694).
-`history search` supports globs for wildcard searching (#3136) and has a new `--reverse` option to show entries from oldest to newest (#4375)..
-`jobs` has a new `--quiet` option to silence the output.
-`read` has a new `--delimiter` option for splitting input into arrays (#4256).
-`read` writes directly to stdout if called without arguments (#4407).
-`read` can now read individual lines into separate variables without consuming the input in its entirety via the new `/--line` option.
-`set` has new `--append` and `--prepend` options (#1326).
-`set` has a new `--show` option to show lots of information about variables (#4265).
-`string match` with an empty pattern and `--entire` in glob mode now matches everything instead of nothing (#4971).
-`string split` supports a new `--no-empty` option to exclude empty strings from the result (#4779).
-`string` has new subcommands `split0` and `join0` for working with NUL-delimited output.
-`string` no longer stops processing text after NUL characters (#4605)
-`string escape` has a new `--style regex` option for escaping strings to be matched literally in `string` regex operations.
-`test` now supports floating point values in numeric comparisons.
### Interactive improvements
- A pipe at the end of a line now allows the job to continue on the next line (#1285).
- Italics and dim support out of the box on macOS for Terminal.app and iTerm (#4436).
-`cd` tab completions no longer descend into the deepest unambiguous path (#4649).
- Pager navigation has been improved. Most notably, moving down now wraps around, moving up from the commandline now jumps to the last element and moving right and left now reverse each other even when wrapping around (#4680).
- Typing normal characters while the completion pager is active no longer shows the search field. Instead it enters them into the command line, and ends paging (#2249).
- A new input binding `pager-toggle-search` toggles the search field in the completions pager on and off. By default, this is bound to Ctrl-S.
- Searching in the pager now does a full fuzzy search (#5213).
- The pager will now show the full command instead of just its last line if the number of completions is large (#4702).
- Abbreviations can be tab-completed (#3233).
- Tildes in file names are now properly escaped in completions (#2274).
- Wrapping completions (from `complete --wraps` or `function --wraps`) can now inject arguments. For example, `complete gco --wraps 'git checkout'` now works properly (#1976). The `alias` function has been updated to respect this behavior.
- Path completions now support expansions, meaning expressions like `python ~/<TAB>` now provides file suggestions just like any other relative or absolute path. (This includes support for other expansions, too.)
- Autosuggestions try to avoid arguments that are already present in the command line.
- Notifications about crashed processes are now always shown, even in command substitutions (#4962).
- The screen is no longer reset after a BEL, fixing graphical glitches (#3693).
- vi-mode now supports ';' and ',' motions. This introduces new {forward,backward}-jump-till and repeat-jump{,-reverse} bind functions (#5140).
- The `*y` vi-mode binding now works (#5100).
- True color is now enabled in neovim by default (#2792).
- Terminal size variables (`$COLUMNS`/`$LINES`) are now updated before `fish_prompt` is called, allowing the prompt to react (#904).
- Multi-line prompts no longer repeat when the terminal is resized (#2320).
-`xclip` support has been added to the clipboard integration (#5020).
- The Alt-P keybinding paginates the last command if the command line is empty.
-`$cmd_duration` is no longer reset when no command is executed (#5011).
- Deleting a one-character word no longer erases the next word as well (#4747).
- Token history search (Alt-Up) omits duplicate entries (#4795).
- The `fish_escape_delay_ms` timeout, allowing the use of the escape key both on its own and as part of a control sequence, was applied to all control characters; this has been reduced to just the escape key.
- Completing a function shows the description properly (#5206).
- Added completions for
-`ansible`, including `ansible-galaxy`, `ansible-playbook` and `ansible-vault` (#4697)
- Lots of improvements to completions (especially `darcs` (#5112), `git`, `hg` and `sudo`).
- Completions for `yarn` and `npm` now require the `all-the-package-names` NPM package for full functionality.
- Completions for `bower` and `yarn` now require the `jq` utility for full functionality.
- Improved French translations.
### Other fixes and improvements
- Significant performance improvements to `abbr` (#4048), setting variables (#4200, #4341), executing functions, globs (#4579), `string` reading from standard input (#4610), and slicing history (in particular, `$history[1]` for the last executed command).
- Fish's internal wcwidth function has been updated to deal with newer Unicode, and the width of some characters can be configured via the `fish_ambiguous_width` (#5149) and `fish_emoji_width` (#2652) variables. Alternatively, a new build-time option INTERNAL_WCWIDTH can be used to use the system's wcwidth instead (#4816).
-`functions` correctly supports `-d` as the short form of `--description`. (#5105)
-`/etc/paths` is now parsed like macOS' bash `path_helper`, fixing $PATH order (#4336, #4852) on macOS.
- Using a read-only variable in a `for` loop produces an error, rather than silently producing incorrect results (#4342).
- The universal variables filename no longer contains the hostname or MAC address. It is now at the fixed location `.config/fish/fish_variables` (#1912).
- Exported variables in the global or universal scope no longer have their exported status affected by local variables (#2611).
- Major rework of terminal and job handling to eliminate bugs (#3805, #3952, #4178, #4235, #4238, #4540, #4929, #5210).
- Improvements to the manual page completion generator (#2937, #4313).
-`suspend --force` now works correctly (#4672).
- Pressing Ctrl-C while running a script now reliably terminates fish (#5253).
### For distributors and developers
- fish ships with a new build system based on CMake. CMake 3.2 is the minimum required version. Although the autotools-based Makefile and the Xcode project are still shipped with this release, they will be removed in the near future. All distributors and developers are encouraged to migrate to the CMake build.
- Build scripts for most platforms no longer require bash, using the standard sh instead.
- The `hostname` command is no longer required for fish to operate.

# fish 2.7.0 (released November 23, 2017)
There are no major changes between 2.7b1 and 2.7.0. If you are upgrading from version 2.6.0 or before, please also review the release notes for 2.7b1 (included below).
Xcode builds and macOS packages could not be produced with 2.7b1, but this is fixed in 2.7.0.
--
# fish 2.7b1 (released October 31, 2017)
## Notable improvements
- A new `cdh` (change directory using recent history) command provides a more friendly alternative to prevd/nextd and pushd/popd (#2847).
- A new `argparse` command is available to allow fish script to parse arguments with the same behavior as builtin commands. This also includes the `fish_opt` helper command. (#4190).
- Invalid array indexes are now silently ignored (#826, #4127).
- Improvements to the debugging facility, including a prompt specific to the debugger (`fish_breakpoint_prompt`) and a `status is-breakpoint` subcommand (#1310).
-`string` supports new `lower` and `upper` subcommands, for altering the case of strings (#4080). The case changing is not locale-aware yet.- `string escape` has a new `--style=xxx` flag where `xxx` can be `script`, `var`, or `url` (#4150), and can be reversed with `string unescape` (#3543).
- History can now be split into sessions with the `fish_history` variable, or not saved to disk at all (#102).
- Read history is now controlled by the `fish_history` variable rather than the `--mode-name` flag (#1504).
-`command` now supports an `--all` flag to report all directories with the command. `which` is no longer a runtime dependency (#2778).
- fish can run commands before starting an interactive session using the new `--init-command`/`-C` options (#4164).
-`set` has a new `--show` option to show lots of information about variables (#4265).
## Other significant changes
- The `COLUMNS` and `LINES` environment variables are now correctly set the first time `fish_prompt` is run (#4141).
-`complete`'s `--no-files` option works as intended (#112).
-`echo -h` now correctly echoes `-h` in line with other shells (#4120).
- The `export` compatibility function now returns zero on success, rather than always returning 1 (#4435).
- Stop converting empty elements in MANPATH to "." (#4158). The behavior being changed was introduced in fish 2.6.0.
-`count -h` and `count --help` now return 1 rather than produce command help output (#4189).
- An attempt to `read` which stops because too much data is available still defines the variables given as parameters (#4180).
- A regression in fish 2.4.0 which prevented `pushd +1` from working has been fixed (#4091).
- A regression in fish 2.6.0 where multiple `read` commands in non-interactive scripts were broken has been fixed (#4206).
- A regression in fish 2.6.0 involving universal variables with side-effects at startup such as `set -U fish_escape_delay_ms 10` has been fixed (#4196).
- Added completions for:
-`as` (#4130)
-`cdh` (#2847)
-`dhcpd` (#4115)
-`ezjail-admin` (#4324)
- Fabric's `fab` (#4153)
-`grub-file` (#4119)
-`grub-install` (#4119)
-`jest` (#4142)
-`kdeconnect-cli`
-`magneto` (#4043, #4108)
-`mdadm` (#4198)
-`passwd` (#4209)
-`pip` and `pipenv` (#4448)
-`s3cmd` (#4332)
-`sbt` (#4347)
-`snap` (#4215)
- Sublime Text 3's `subl` (#4277)
- Lots of improvements to completions.
- Updated Chinese and French translations.

-`apt`
-`cd` (#4061)
-`composer` (#4295)
-`eopkg`
-`flatpak` (#4456)
-`git` (#4117, #4147, #4329, #4368)
-`gphoto2`
-`killall` (#4052)

# fish 2.6.0 (released June 3, 2017)
Since the beta release of fish 2.6b1, fish version 2.6.0 contains a number of minor fixes, new completions for `magneto` (#4043), and improvements to the documentation.
## Known issues
- Apple macOS Sierra 10.12.5 introduced a problem with launching web browsers from other programs using AppleScript. This affects the fish Web configuration (`fish_config`); users on these platforms will need to manually open the address displayed in the terminal, such as by copying and pasting it into a browser. This problem will be fixed with macOS 10.12.6.
If you are upgrading from version 2.5.0 or before, please also review the release notes for 2.6b1 (included below).
---
# fish 2.6b1 (released May 14, 2017)
## Notable fixes and improvements
- Jobs running in the background can now be removed from the list of jobs with the new `disown` builtin, which behaves like the same command in other shells (#2810).
- Command substitutions now have access to the terminal, like in other shells. This allows tools like `fzf` to work properly (#1362, #3922).
- In cases where the operating system does not report the size of the terminal, the `COLUMNS` and `LINES` environment variables are used; if they are unset, a default of 80x24 is assumed.
- New French (#3772 & #3788) and improved German (#3834) translations.
- fish no longer depends on the `which` external command.
## Other significant changes
- Performance improvements in launching processes, including major reductions in signal blocking. Although this has been heavily tested, it may cause problems in some circumstances; set the `FISH_NO_SIGNAL_BLOCK` variable to 0 in your fish configuration file to return to the old behaviour (#2007).
- Performance improvements in prompts and functions that set lots of colours (#3793).
- The Delete key no longer deletes backwards (a regression in 2.5.0).
-`functions` supports a new `--details` option, which identifies where the function was loaded from (#3295), and a `--details --verbose` option which includes the function description (#597).
-`read` will read up to 10 MiB by default, leaving the target variable empty and exiting with status 122 if the line is too long. You can set a different limit with the `FISH_READ_BYTE_LIMIT` variable.
-`read` supports a new `--silent` option to hide the characters typed (#838), for when reading sensitive data from the terminal. `read` also now accepts simple strings for the prompt (rather than scripts) with the new `-P` and `--prompt-str` options (#802).
-`export` and `setenv` now understand colon-separated `PATH`, `CDPATH` and `MANPATH` variables.
-`setenv` is no longer a simple alias for `set -gx` and will complain, just like the csh version, if given more than one value (#4103).
-`bind` supports a new `--list-modes` option (#3872).
-`bg` will check all of its arguments before backgrounding any jobs; any invalid arguments will cause a failure, but non-existent (eg recently exited) jobs are ignored (#3909).
-`funced` warns if the function being edited has not been modified (#3961).
-`status` supports a new `current-function` subcommand to print the current function name (#1743).
-`string` supports a new `repeat` subcommand (#3864). `string match` supports a new `--entire` option to emit the entire line matched by a pattern (#3957). `string replace` supports a new `--filter` option to only emit lines which underwent a replacement (#3348).
-`test` supports the `-k` option to test for sticky bits (#733).
-`umask` understands symbolic modes (#738).
- Empty components in the `CDPATH`, `MANPATH` and `PATH` variables are now converted to "." (#2106, #3914).
- New versions of ncurses (6.0 and up) wipe terminal scrollback buffers with certain commands; the `C-l` binding tries to avoid this (#2855).
- Some systems' `su` implementations do not set the `USER` environment variable; it is now reset for root users (#3916).
- Under terminals which support it, bracketed paste is enabled, escaping problematic characters for security and convience (#3871). Inside single quotes (`'`), single quotes and backslashes in pasted text are escaped (#967). The `fish_clipboard_paste` function (bound to `C-v` by default) is still the recommended pasting method where possible as it includes this functionality and more.
- Processes in pipelines are no longer signalled as soon as one command in the pipeline has completed (#1926). This behaviour matches other shells mre closely.
- All functions requiring Python work with whichever version of Python is installed (#3970). Python 3 is preferred, but Python 2.6 remains the minimum version required.
- The color of the cancellation character can be controlled by the `fish_color_cancel` variable (#3963).
There are no major changes between 2.5b1 and 2.5.0. If you are upgrading from version 2.4.0 or before, please also review the release notes for 2.5b1 (included below).
## Notable fixes and improvements
- The Home, End, Insert, Delete, Page Up and Page Down keys work in Vi-style key bindings (#3731).

# fish 2.5b1 (released January 14, 2017)
## Platform Changes
Starting with version 2.5, fish requires a more up-to-date version of C++, specifically C++11 (from 2011). This affects some older platforms:
### Linux
For users building from source, GCC's g++ 4.8 or later, or LLVM's clang 3.3 or later, are known to work. Older platforms may require a newer compiler installed.
Unfortunately, because of the complexity of the toolchain, binary packages are no longer published by the fish-shell developers for the following platforms:
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux and CentOS 5 & 6 for 64-bit builds
- Ubuntu 12.04 (EoLTS April 2017)
- Debian 7 (EoLTS May 2018)
Installing newer version of fish on these systems will require building from source.
### OS X SnowLeopard
Starting with version 2.5, fish requires a C++11 standard library on OS X 10.6 ("SnowLeopard"). If this library is not installed, you will see this error: `dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libc++.1.dylib`
MacPorts is the easiest way to obtain this library. After installing the SnowLeopard MacPorts release from the install page, run:
```
sudo port -v install libcxx
```
Now fish should launch successfully. (Please open an issue if it does not.)
This is only necessary on 10.6. OS X 10.7 and later include the required library by default.
## Other significant changes
- Attempting to exit with running processes in the background produces a warning, then signals them to terminate if a second attempt to exit is made. This brings the behaviour for running background processes into line with stopped processes. (#3497)
-`random` can now have start, stop and step values specified, or the new `choice` subcommand can be used to pick an argument from a list (#3619).
- A new key bindings preset, `fish_hybrid_key_bindings`, including all the Emacs-style and Vi-style bindings, which behaves like `fish_vi_key_bindings` in fish 2.3.0 (#3556).
-`function` now returns an error when called with invalid options, rather than defining the function anyway (#3574). This was a regression present in fish 2.3 and 2.4.0.
- fish no longer prints a warning when it identifies a running instance of an old version (2.1.0 and earlier). Changes to universal variables may not propagate between these old versions and 2.5b1.
- Improved compatiblity with Android (#3585), MSYS/mingw (#2360), and Solaris (#3456, #3340).
- Like other shells, the `test` builting now returns an error for numeric operations on invalid integers (#3346, #3581).
-`complete` no longer recognises `--authoritative` and `--unauthoritative` options, and they are marked as obsolete.
-`status` accepts subcommands, and should be used like `status is-interactive`. The old options continue to be supported for the foreseeable future (#3526), although only one subcommand or option can be specified at a time.
- Selection mode (used with "begin-selection") no longer selects a character the cursor does not move over (#3684).
- List indexes are handled better, and a bit more liberally in some cases (`echo $PATH[1 .. 3]` is now valid) (#3579).
- The `fish_mode_prompt` function is now simply a stub around `fish_default_mode_prompt`, which allows the mode prompt to be included more easily in customised prompt functions (#3641).
## Notable fixes and improvements
-`alias`, run without options or arguments, lists all defined aliases, and aliases now include a description in the function signature that identifies them.
-`complete` accepts empty strings as descriptions (#3557).
-`command` accepts `-q`/`--quiet` in combination with `--search` (#3591), providing a simple way of checking whether a command exists in scripts.
- Abbreviations can now be renamed with `abbr --rename OLD_KEY NEW_KEY` (#3610).
- The command synopses printed by `--help` options work better with copying and pasting (#2673).
-`help` launches the browser specified by the `$fish_help_browser variable` if it is set (#3131).
- History merging could lose items under certain circumstances and is now fixed (#3496).
- The `$status` variable is now set to 123 when a syntactically invalid command is entered (#3616).
- Exiting fish now signals all background processes to terminate, not just stopped jobs (#3497).
- A new `prompt_hostname` function which prints a hostname suitable for use in prompts (#3482).
- The `__fish_man_page` function (bound to Alt-h by default) now tries to recognize subcommands (e.g. `git add` will now open the "git-add" man page) (#3678).
- A new function `edit_command_buffer` (bound to Alt-e & Alt-v by default) to edit the command buffer in an external editor (#1215, #3627).
-`set_color` now supports italics (`--italics`), dim (`--dim`) and reverse (`--reverse`) modes (#3650).
- Filesystems with very slow locking (eg incorrectly-configured NFS) will no longer slow fish down (#685).
- Improved completions for `apt` (#3695), `fusermount` (#3642), `make` (#3628), `netctl-auto` (#3378), `nmcli` (#3648), `pygmentize` (#3378), and `tar` (#3719).
- Added completions for:
-`VBoxHeadless` (#3378)
-`VBoxSDL` (#3378)
-`base64` (#3378)
-`caffeinate` (#3524)
-`dconf` (#3638)
-`dig` (#3495)
-`dpkg-reconfigure` (#3521 & #3522)
-`feh` (#3378)
-`launchctl` (#3682)
-`lxc` (#3554 & #3564),
-`mddiagnose` (#3524)
-`mdfind` (#3524)
-`mdimport` (#3524)
-`mdls` (#3524)
-`mdutil` (#3524)
-`mkvextract` (#3492)
-`nvram` (#3524)
-`objdump` (#3378)
-`sysbench` (#3491)
-`tmutil` (#3524)
---
# fish 2.4.0 (released November 8, 2016)
There are no major changes between 2.4b1 and 2.4.0.
## Notable fixes and improvements
- The documentation is now generated properly and with the correct version identifier.
- Automatic cursor changes are now only enabled on the subset of XTerm versions known to support them, resolving a problem where older versions printed garbage to the terminal before and after every prompt (#3499).
- Improved the title set in Apple Terminal.app.
- Added completions for `defaults` and improved completions for `diskutil` (#3478).
---
# fish 2.4b1 (released October 18, 2016)
## Significant changes
- The clipboard integration has been revamped with explicit bindings. The killring commands no longer copy from, or paste to, the X11 clipboard - use the new copy (`C-x`) and paste (`C-v`) bindings instead. The clipboard is now available on OS X as well as systems using X11 (e.g. Linux). (#3061)
-`history` uses subcommands (`history delete`) rather than options (`history --delete`) for its actions (#3367). You can no longer specify multiple actions via flags (e.g., `history --delete --save something`).
- New `history` options have been added, including `--max=n` to limit the number of history entries, `--show-time` option to show timestamps (#3175, #3244), and `--null` to null terminate history entries in the search output.
-`history search` is now case-insensitive by default (which also affects `history delete`) (#3236).
-`history delete` now correctly handles multiline commands (#31).
- Vi-style bindings no longer include all of the default emacs-style bindings; instead, they share some definitions (#3068).
- If there is no locale set in the environment, various known system configuration files will be checked for a default. If no locale can be found, `en_US-UTF.8` will be used (#277).
- A number followed by a caret (e.g. `5^`) is no longer treated as a redirection (#1873).
- The `$version` special variable can be overwritten, so that it can be used for other purposes if required.
## Notable fixes and improvements
- The `fish_realpath` builtin has been renamed to `realpath` and made compatible with GNU `realpath` when run without arguments (#3400). It is used only for systems without a `realpath` or `grealpath` utility (#3374).
- Improved color handling on terminals/consoles with 8-16 colors, particularly the use of bright named color (#3176, #3260).
-`fish_indent` can now read from files given as arguments, rather than just standard input (#3037).
- Fuzzy tab completions behave in a less surprising manner (#3090, #3211).
-`jobs` should only print its header line once (#3127).
- Wildcards in redirections are highlighted appropriately (#2789).
- Suggestions will be offered more often, like after removing characters (#3069).
-`history --merge` now correctly interleaves items in chronological order (#2312).
- Options for `fish_indent` have been aligned with the other binaries - in particular, `-d` now means `--debug`. The `--dump` option has been renamed to `--dump-parse-tree` (#3191).
- The display of bindings in the Web-based configuration has been greatly improved (#3325), as has the rendering of prompts (#2924).
- fish should no longer hang using 100% CPU in the C locale (#3214).
- A bug in FreeBSD 11 & 12, Dragonfly BSD & illumos prevented fish from working correctly on these platforms under UTF-8 locales; fish now avoids the buggy behaviour (#3050).
- Prompts which show git repository information (via `__fish_git_prompt`) are faster in large repositories (#3294) and slow filesystems (#3083).
- fish 2.3.0 reintroduced a problem where the greeting was printed even when using `read`; this has been corrected again (#3261).
- Vi mode changes the cursor depending on the current mode (#3215).
- Command lines with escaped space characters at the end tab-complete correctly (#2447).
- Distributors, packagers and developers will notice that the build process produces more succinct output by default; use `make V=1` to get verbose output (#3248).
- Improved compatibility with minor platforms including musl (#2988), Cygwin (#2993), Android (#3441, #3442), Haiku (#3322) and Solaris .
---
# fish 2.3.1 (released July 3, 2016)
This is a functionality and bugfix release. This release does not contain all the changes to fish since the last release, but fixes a number of issues directly affecting users at present and includes a small number of new features.
## Significant changes
- A new `fish_key_reader` binary for decoding interactive keypresses (#2991).
-`fish_mode_prompt` has been updated to reflect the changes in the way the Vi input mode is set up (#3067), making this more reliable.
-`fish_config` can now properly be launched from the OS X app bundle (#3140).
## Notable fixes and improvements
- Extra lines were sometimes inserted into the output under Windows (Cygwin and Microsoft Windows Subsystem for Linux) due to TTY timestamps not being updated (#2859).
- The `string` builtin's `match` mode now handles the combination of `-rnv` (match, invert and count) correctly (#3098).
- Improvements to TTY special character handling (#3064), locale handling (#3124) and terminal environment variable handling (#3060).
- Work towards handling the terminal modes for external commands launched from initialisation files (#2980).
- Ease the upgrade path from fish 2.2.0 and before by warning users to restart fish if the `string` builtin is not available (#3057).
-`type -a` now syntax-colorizes function source output.
- Added completions for `alsamixer`, `godoc`, `gofmt`, `goimports`, `gorename`, `lscpu`, `mkdir`, `modinfo`, `netctl-auto`, `poweroff`, `termite`, `udisksctl` and `xz` (#3123).
- Improved completions for `apt` (#3097), `aura` (#3102),`git` (#3114), `npm` (#3158), `string` and `suspend` (#3154).
---
# fish 2.3.0 (released May 20, 2016)
There are no significant changes between 2.3.0 and 2.3b2.
## Other notable fixes and improvements
-`abbr` now allows non-letter keys (#2996).
- Define a few extra colours on first start (#2987).
- Multiple documentation updates.
- Added completions for rmmod (#3007).
- Improved completions for git (#2998).
## Known issues
- Interactive commands started from fish configuration files or from the `-c` option may, under certain circumstances, be started with incorrect terminal modes and fail to behave as expected. A fix is planned but requires further testing (#2619).
---
# fish 2.3b2 (released May 5, 2016)
## Significant changes
- A new `fish_realpath` builtin and associated function to allow the use of `realpath` even on those platforms that don't ship an appropriate command (#2932).
- Alt-# toggles the current command line between commented and uncommented states, making it easy to save a command in history without executing it.
- The `fish_vi_mode` function is now deprecated in favour of `fish_vi_key_bindings`.
## Other notable fixes and improvements
- Fix the build on Cygwin (#2952) and RedHat Enterprise Linux/CentOS 5 (#2955).
- Avoid confusing the terminal line driver with non-printing characters in `fish_title` (#2453).
- Improved completions for busctl, git (#2585, #2879, #2984), and netctl.
---
# fish 2.3b1 (released April 19, 2016)
## Significant Changes
- A new `string` builtin to handle... strings! This builtin will measure, split, search and replace text strings, including using regular expressions. It can also be used to turn lists into plain strings using `join`. `string` can be used in place of `sed`, `grep`, `tr`, `cut`, and `awk` in many situations. (#2296)
- Allow using escape as the Meta modifier key, by waiting after seeing an escape character wait up to 300ms for an additional character. This is consistent with readline (e.g. bash) and can be configured via the `fish_escape_delay_ms variable`. This allows using escape as the Meta modifier. (#1356)
- Add new directories for vendor functions and configuration snippets (#2500)
- A new `fish_realpath` builtin and associated `realpath` function should allow scripts to resolve path names via `realpath` regardless of whether there is an external command of that name; albeit with some limitations. See the associated documentation.
## Backward-incompatible changes
- Unmatched globs will now cause an error, except when used with `for`, `set` or `count` (#2719)
-`and` and `or` will now bind to the closest `if` or `while`, allowing compound conditions without `begin` and `end` (#1428)
-`set -ql` now searches up to function scope for variables (#2502)
-`status -f` will now behave the same when run as the main script or using `source` (#2643)
-`source` no longer puts the file name in `$argv` if no arguments are given (#139)
- History files are stored under the `XDG_DATA_HOME` hierarchy (by default, in `~/.local/share`), and existing history will be moved on first use (#744)
## Other notable fixes and improvements
- Fish no longer silences errors in config.fish (#2702)
- Directory autosuggestions will now descend as far as possible if there is only one child directory (#2531)
- Add support for bright colors (#1464)
- Allow Ctrl-J (\cj) to be bound separately from Ctrl-M (\cm) (#217)
- psub now has a "-s"/"–suffix" option to name the temporary file with that suffix
- Enable 24-bit colors on select terminals (#2495)
- Support for SVN status in the prompt (#2582)
- Mercurial and SVN support have been added to the Classic + Git (now Classic + VCS) prompt (via the new \__fish_vcs_prompt function) (#2592)
- export now handles variables with a "=" in the value (#2403)
- Fish no longer has a function called sgrep, freeing it for user customization (#2245)
- A rewrite of the completions for cd, fixing a few bugs (#2299, #2300, #562)
- Linux VTs now run in a simplified mode to avoid issues (#2311)
- The vi-bindings now inherit from the emacs bindings
- Fish will also execute `fish_user_key_bindings` when in vi-mode
-`funced` will now also check $VISUAL (#2268)
- A new `suspend` function (#2269)
- Subcommand completion now works better with split /usr (#2141)
- The command-not-found-handler can now be overridden by defining a function called `__fish_command_not_found_handler` in config.fish (#2332)
- A few fixes to the Sorin theme
- PWD shortening in the prompt can now be configured via the `fish_prompt_pwd_dir_length` variable, set to the length per path component (#2473)
- fish no longer requires `/etc/fish/config.fish` to correctly start, and now ships a skeleton file that only contains some documentation (#2799)
---
# fish 2.2.0 (released July 12, 2015)
### Significant changes ###
* Abbreviations: the new `abbr` command allows for interactively-expanded abbreviations, allowing quick access to frequently-used commands (#731).
* Vi mode: run `fish_vi_mode` to switch fish into the key bindings and prompt familiar to users of the Vi editor (#65).
* New inline and interactive pager, which will be familiar to users of zsh (#291).
* Underlying architectural changes: the `fishd` universal variable server has been removed as it was a source of many bugs and security problems. Notably, old fish sessions will not be able to communicate universal variable changes with new fish sessions. For best results, restart all running instances of `fish`.
* The web-based configuration tool has been redesigned, featuring a prompt theme chooser and other improvements.
* New German, Brazilian Portuguese, and Chinese translations.
### Backward-incompatible changes ###
These are kept to a minimum, but either change undocumented features or are too hard to use in their existing forms. These changes may break existing scripts.
*`commandline` no longer interprets functions "in reverse", instead behaving as expected (#1567).
* The previously-undocumented `CMD_DURATION` variable is now set for all commands and contains the execution time of the last command in milliseconds (#1585). It is no longer exported to other commands (#1896).
*`if` / `else` conditional statements now return values consistent with the Single Unix Specification, like other shells (#1443).
* A new "top-level" local scope has been added, allowing local variables declared on the commandline to be visible to subsequent commands. (#1908)
### Other notable fixes and improvements ###
* New documentation design (#1662), which requires a Doxygen version 1.8.7 or newer to build.
* Fish now defines a default directory for other packages to provide completions. By default this is `/usr/share/fish/vendor-completions.d`; on systems with `pkgconfig` installed this path is discoverable with `pkg-config --variable completionsdir fish`.
* A new parser removes many bugs; all existing syntax should keep working.
* New `fish_preexec` and `fish_postexec` events are fired before and after job execution respectively (#1549).
* Unmatched wildcards no longer prevent a job from running. Wildcards used interactively will still print an error, but the job will proceed and the wildcard will expand to zero arguments (#1482).
* The `.` command is deprecated and the `source` command is preferred (#310).
*`bind` supports "bind modes", which allows bindings to be set for a particular named mode, to support the implementation of Vi mode.
* A new `export` alias, which behaves like other shells (#1833).
*`command` has a new `--search` option to print the name of the disk file that would be executed, like other shells' `command -v` (#1540).
*`commandline` has a new `--paging-mode` option to support the new pager.
*`complete` has a new `--wraps` option, which allows a command to (recursively) inherit the completions of a wrapped command (#393), and `complete -e` now correctly erases completions (#380).
* Completions are now generated from manual pages by default on the first run of fish (#997).
*`fish_indent` can now produce colorized (`--ansi`) and HTML (`--html`) output (#1827).
*`functions --erase` now prevents autoloaded functions from being reloaded in the current session.
*`history` has a new `--merge` option, to incorporate history from other sessions into the current session (#825).
*`jobs` returns 1 if there are no active jobs (#1484).
*`read` has several new options:
*`--array` to break input into an array (#1540)
*`--null` to break lines on NUL characters rather than newlines (#1694)
*`--nchars` to read a specific number of characters (#1616)
*`--right-prompt` to display a right-hand-side prompt during interactive read (#1698).
*`type` has a new `-q` option to suppress output (#1540 and, like other shells, `type -a` now prints all matches for a command (#261).
* Pressing F1 now shows the manual page for the current command (#1063).
*`fish_title` functions have access to the arguments of the currently running argument as `$argv[1]` (#1542).
* The OS command-not-found handler is used on Arch Linux (#1925), nixOS (#1852), openSUSE and Fedora (#1280).
*`Alt`+`.` searches backwards in the token history, mapping to the same behavior as inserting the last argument of the previous command, like other shells (#89).
* The `SHLVL` environment variable is incremented correctly (#1634 & #1693).
fish 2.1.2 contains a workaround for a filesystem bug in Mac OS X Yosemite. #1859
Specifically, after installing fish 2.1.1 and then rebooting, "Verify Disk" in Disk Utility will report "Invalid number of hard links." We don't have any reports of data loss or other adverse consequences. fish 2.1.2 avoids triggering the bug, but does not repair an already affected filesystem. To repair the filesystem, you can boot into Recovery Mode and use Repair Disk from Disk Utility. Linux and versions of OS X prior to Yosemite are believed to be unaffected.
There are no other changes in this release.
---
# fish 2.1.1 (released September 26, 2014)
__Important:__ if you are upgrading, stop all running instances of `fishd` as soon as possible after installing this release; it will be restarted automatically. On most systems, there will be no further action required. Note that some environments (where `XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` is set), such as Fedora 20, will require a restart of all running fish processes before universal variables work as intended.
Distributors are highly encouraged to call `killall fishd`, `pkill fishd` or similar in installation scripts, or to warn their users to do so.
### Security fixes
* The fish_config web interface now uses an authentication token to protect requests and only responds to requests from the local machine with this token, preventing a remote code execution attack. (closing CVE-2014-2914). #1438
*`psub` and `funced` are no longer vulnerable to attacks which allow local privilege escalation and data tampering (closing CVE-2014-2906 and CVE-2014-3856). #1437
*`fishd` uses a secure path for its socket, preventing a local privilege escalation attack (closing CVE-2014-2905). #1436
*`__fish_print_packages` is no longer vulnerable to attacks which would allow local privilege escalation and data tampering (closing CVE-2014-3219). #1440
### Other fixes
*`fishd` now ignores SIGPIPE, fixing crashes using tools like GNU Parallel and which occurred more often as a result of the other `fishd` changes. #1084 & #1690
---
# fish 2.1.0
Significant Changes
-------------------
* **Tab completions will fuzzy-match files.** #568
When tab-completing a file, fish will first attempt prefix matches (`foo` matches `foobar`), then substring matches (`ooba` matches `foobar`), and lastly subsequence matches (`fbr` matches `foobar`). For example, in a directory with files foo1.txt, foo2.txt, foo3.txt…, you can type only the numeric part and hit tab to fill in the rest.
This feature is implemented for files and executables. It is not yet implemented for options (like `--foobar`), and not yet implemented across path components (like `/u/l/b` to match `/usr/local/bin`).
* **Redirections now work better across pipelines.** #110, #877
In particular, you can pipe stderr and stdout together, for example, with `cmd ^&1 | tee log.txt`, or the more familiar `cmd 2>&1 | tee log.txt`.
* **A single `%` now expands to the last job backgrounded.** #1008
Previously, a single `%` would pid-expand to either all backgrounded jobs, or all jobs owned by your user. Now it expands to the last job backgrounded. If no job is in the background, it will fail to expand. In particular, `fg %` can be used to put the most recent background job in the foreground.
Other Notable Fixes
-------------------
* alt-U and alt+C now uppercase and capitalize words, respectively. #995
* VTE based terminals should now know the working directory. #906
* The autotools build now works on Mavericks. #968
* The end-of-line binding (ctrl+E) now accepts autosuggestions. #932
* Directories in `/etc/paths` (used on OS X) are now prepended instead of appended, similar to other shells. #927
* Option-right-arrow (used for partial autosuggestion completion) now works on iTerm2. #920
* Tab completions now work properly within nested subcommands. #913
*`printf` supports \e, the escape character. #910
*`fish_config history` no longer shows duplicate items. #900
*`$fish_user_paths` is now prepended to $PATH instead of appended. #888
* Jobs complete when all processes complete. #876
For example, in previous versions of fish, `sleep 10 | echo Done` returns control immediately, because echo does not read from stdin. Now it does not complete until sleep exits (presumably after 10 seconds).
* Better error reporting for square brackets. #875
* fish no longer tries to add `/bin` to `$PATH` unless PATH is totally empty. #852
* History token substitution (alt-up) now works correctly inside subshells. #833
* Flow control is now disabled, freeing up ctrl-S and ctrl-Q for other uses. #814
* sh-style variable setting like `foo=bar` now produces better error messages. #809
* Commands with wildcards no longer produce autosuggestions. #785
* funced no longer freaks out when supplied with no arguments. #780
* fish.app now works correctly in a directory containing spaces. #774
* Tab completion cycling no longer occasionally fails to repaint. #765
* Comments now work in eval'd strings. #684
* History search (up-arrow) now shows the item matching the autosuggestion, if that autosuggestion was truncated. #650
* Ctrl-T now transposes characters, as in other shells. #128
---
# fish 2.0.0
Significant Changes
-------------------
* **Command substitutions now modify `$status`#547.**
Previously the exit status of command substitutions (like `(pwd)`) was ignored; however now it modifies $status. Furthermore, the `set` command now only sets $status on failure; it is untouched on success. This allows for the following pattern:
```sh
if set python_path (which python)
...
end
```
Because set does not modify $status on success, the if branch effectively tests whether `which` succeeded, and if so, whether the `set` also succeeded.
* **Improvements to $PATH handling.**
* There is a new variable, `$fish_user_paths`, which can be set universally, and whose contents are appended to $PATH #527
* /etc/paths and /etc/paths.d are now respected on OS X
* fish no longer modifies $PATH to find its own binaries
* **Long lines no longer use ellipsis for line breaks**, and copy and paste
should no longer include a newline even if the line was broken #300
* **New syntax for index ranges** (sometimes known as "slices") #212
* **fish now supports an `else if` statement** #134
* **Process and pid completion now works on OS X** #129
* **fish is now relocatable**, and no longer depends on compiled-in paths #125
* **fish now supports a right prompt (RPROMPT)** through the fish_right_prompt function #80
* **fish now uses posix_spawn instead of fork when possible**, which is much faster on BSD and OS X #11

# fishfish Beta r2
Bug Fixes
---------
* **Implicit cd** is back, for paths that start with one or two dots, a slash, or a tilde.
* **Overrides of default functions should be fixed.** The "internalized scripts" feature is disabled for now.
* **Disabled delayed suspend.** This is a strange job-control feature of BSD systems, including OS X. Disabling it frees up Control Y for other purposes; in particular, for yank, which now works on OS X.
* **fish_indent is fixed.** In particular, the `funced` and `funcsave` functions work again.
* A SIGTERM now ends the whole execution stack again (resolving #13).
* Bumped the __fish_config_interactive version number so the default fish_color_autosuggestion kicks in.
* fish_config better handles combined term256 and classic colors like "555 yellow".
New Features
------------
* **A history builtin**, and associated interactive function that enables deleting history items. Example usage:
* Print all history items beginning with echo: `history --prefix echo`
* Print all history items containing foo: `history --contains foo`
Credit to @siteshwar for implementation. Thanks @siteshwar!

# fishfish Beta r1
## Scripting
* No changes! All existing fish scripts, config files, completions, etc. from trunk should continue to work.
## New Features
* **Autosuggestions**. Think URL fields in browsers. When you type a command, fish will suggest the rest of the command after the cursor, in a muted gray when possible. You can accept the suggestion with the right arrow key or Ctrl-F. Suggestions come from command history, completions, and some custom code for cd; there's a lot of potential for improvement here. The suggestions are computed on a background pthread, so they never slow down your typing. The autosuggestion feature is incredible. I miss it dearly every time I use anything else.
* **term256 support** where available, specifically modern xterms and OS X Lion. You can specify colors the old way ('set_color cyan') or by specifying RGB hex values ('set_color FF3333'); fish will pick the closest supported color. Some xterms do not advertise term256 support either in the $TERM or terminfo max_colors field, but nevertheless support it. For that reason, fish will default into using it on any xterm (but it can be disabled with an environment variable).
* **Web-based configuration** page. There is a new function 'fish_config'. This spins up a simple Python web server and opens a browser window to it. From this web page, you can set your shell colors and view your functions, variables, and history; all changes apply immediately to all running shells. Eventually all configuration ought to be supported via this mechanism (but in addition to, not instead of, command line mechanisms).
* **Man page completions**. There is a new function 'fish_update_completions'. This function reads all the man1 files from your manpath, removes the roff formatting, parses them to find the commands and options, and outputs fish completions into ~/.config/fish/completions. It won't overwrite existing completion files (except ones that it generated itself).
## Programmatic Changes
* fish is now entirely in C++. I have no particular love for C++, but it provides a ready memory-model to replace halloc. We've made an effort to keep it to a sane and portable subset (no C++11, no boost, no going crazy with templates or smart pointers), but we do use the STL and a little tr1.
* halloc is entirely gone, replaced by normal C++ ownership semantics. If you don't know what halloc is, well, now you have two reasons to be happy.
* All the crufty C data structures are entirely gone. array_list_t, priority_queue_t, hash_table_t, string_buffer_t have been removed and replaced by STL equivalents like std::vector, std::map, and std::wstring. A lot of the string handling now uses std::wstring instead of wchar_t *
* fish now spawns pthreads for tasks like syntax highlighting that require blocking I/O.
* History has been completely rewritten. History files now use an extensible YAML-style syntax. History "merging" (multiple shells writing to the same history file) now works better. There is now a maximum history length of about 250k items (256 * 1024).
* The parser has been "instanced," so you can now create more than one.
* Total #LoC has shrunk slightly even with the new features.
## Performance
* fish now runs syntax highlighting in a background thread, so typing commands is always responsive even on slow filesystems.
* echo, test, and pwd are now builtins, which eliminates many forks.
* The files in share/functions and share/completions now get 'internalized' into C strings that get compiled in with fish. This substantially reduces the number of files touched at startup. A consequence is that you cannot change these functions without recompiling, but often other functions depend on these "standard" functions, so changing them is perhaps not a good idea anyways.
Here are some system call counts for launching and then exiting fish with the default configuration, on OS X. The first column is fish trunk, the next column is with our changes, and the last column is bash for comparison. This data was collected via dtrace.
<table>
<tr> <th> <th> before <th> after <th> bash
<tr> <th> open <td> 9 <td> 4 <td> 5
<tr> <th> fork <td> 28 <td> 14 <td> 0
<tr> <th> stat <td> 131 <td> 85 <td> 11
<tr> <th> lstat <td> 670 <td> 0 <td> 0
<tr> <th> read <td> 332 <td> 80 <td> 4
<tr> <th> write <td> 172 <td> 149 <td> 0
</table>
The large number of forks relative to bash are due to fish's insanely expensive default prompt, which is unchanged in my version. If we switch to a prompt comparable to bash's (lame) default, the forks drop to 16 with trunk, 4 after our changes.
The large reduction in lstat() numbers is due to fish no longer needing to call ttyname() on OS X.
We've got some work to do to be as lean as bash, but we're on the right track.
This is style guide for fish contributors. You should use it for any new code
that you would add to this project and try to format existing code to use this
style.
This document provides guidelines for making changes to the fish-shell project. This includes rules for how to format the code, naming conventions, et cetera. Generally known as the style of the code. It also includes recommended best practices such as creating a Travis CI account so you can verify that your changes pass all the tests before making a pull request.
## Formatting
See the bottom of this document for help on installing the linting and style reformatting tools discussed in the following sections.
1. fish uses the Allman/BSD style of indentation.
2. Indent with spaces, not tabs.
3. Use 4 spaces per indent (unless needed like `Makefile`).
4. Opening curly bracket is on the following line:
Fish source should limit the C++ features it uses to those available in C++11. It should not use exceptions.
// ✔:
struct name
{
// code
};
Before introducing a new dependency, please make it optional with graceful failure if possible. Add
any new dependencies to the README.md under the *Running* and/or *Building* sections.
void func()
{
// code
}
## Versioning
if (...)
{
// code
}
The fish version is constructed by the *build_tools/git_version_gen.sh* script. For developers the version is the branch name plus the output of `git describe --always --dirty`. Normally the main part of the version will be the closest annotated tag. Which itself is usually the most recent release number (e.g., `2.6.0`).
// ✗:
void func() {
// code
}
## Include What You Use
5. Put space after `if`, `while` and `for` before conditions.
You should not depend on symbols being visible to a `*.cpp` module from `#include` statements inside another header file. In other words if your module does `#include "common.h"` and that header does `#include "signal.h"` your module should not assume the sub-include is present. It should instead directly `#include "signal.h"` if it needs any symbol from that header. That makes the actual dependencies much clearer. It also makes it easy to modify the headers included by a specific header file without having to worry that will break any module (or header) that includes a particular header.
// ✔:
if () {}
To help enforce this rule the `make lint` (and `make lint-all`) command will run the [include-what-you-use](https://include-what-you-use.org/) tool. You can find the IWYU project on [github](https://github.com/include-what-you-use/include-what-you-use).
// ✗:
if() {}
To install the tool on OS X you'll need to add a [formula](https://github.com/jasonmp85/homebrew-iwyu) then install it:
6. Put spaces before and after operators excluding increment and decrement;
```
brew tap jasonmp85/iwyu
brew install iwyu
```
// ✔:
int a = 1 + 2 * 3;
a++;
On Ubuntu you can install it via `apt-get`:
// ✗:
int a=1+2*3;
a ++;
```
sudo apt-get install iwyu
```
7. Never put spaces between function name and parameters list.
## Lint Free Code
// ✔:
func(args);
Automated analysis tools like cppcheck and oclint can point out potential bugs or code that is extremely hard to understand. They also help ensure the code has a consistent style and that it avoids patterns that tend to confuse people.
// ✗:
func (args);
Ultimately we want lint free code. However, at the moment a lot of cleanup is required to reach that goal. For now simply try to avoid introducing new lint.
8. Never put spaces after `(` and before `)`.
9. Always put space after comma and semicolon.
To make linting the code easy there are two make targets: `lint` and `lint-all`. The latter does exactly what the name implies. The former will lint any modified but not committed `*.cpp` files. If there is no uncommitted work it will lint the files in the most recent commit.
// ✔:
func(arg1, arg2);
Fish has custom cppcheck rules in the file `.cppcheck.rule`. These help catch mistakes such as using `wcwidth()` rather than `fish_wcwidth()`. Please add a new rule if you find similar mistakes being made.
for (int i = 0; i < LENGTH; i++) {}
Fish also depends on `diff` and `expect` for its tests.
// ✗:
func(arg1,arg2);
### Dealing With Lint Warnings
for (int i = 0;i<LENGTH;i++) {}
You are strongly encouraged to address a lint warning by refactoring the code, changing variable names, or whatever action is implied by the warning.
## Documentation
### Suppressing Lint Warnings
Document your code using [Doxygen][dox].
Once in a while the lint tools emit a false positive warning. For example, cppcheck might suggest a memory leak is present when that is not the case. To suppress that cppcheck warning you should insert a line like the following immediately prior to the line cppcheck warned about:
1. Documentation comment should use double star notation or tripple slash:
```
// cppcheck-suppress memleak // addr not really leaked
```
// ✔:
/// Some var
int var;
The explanatory portion of the suppression comment is optional. For other types of warnings replace "memleak" with the value inside the parenthesis (e.g., "nullPointerRedundantCheck") from a warning like the following:
/**
* Some func
*/
void func();
```
[src/complete.cpp:1727]: warning (nullPointerRedundantCheck): Either the condition 'cmd_node' is redundant or there is possible null pointer dereference: cmd_node.
```
2. Use slash as tag mark:
Suppressing oclint warnings is more complicated to describe so I'll refer you to the [OCLint HowTo](http://docs.oclint.org/en/latest/howto/suppress.html#annotations) on the topic.
// ✔:
## Ensuring Your Changes Conform to the Style Guides
/**
* \param a an integer argument.
* \param s a constant character pointer.
* \return The results
*/
int foo(int a, const char *s);
The following sections discuss the specific rules for the style that should be used when writing fish code. To ensure your changes conform to the style rules you simply need to run
## Naming
```
make style
```
All names in code should be `small_snake_case`. No Hungarian notation is used.
Classes and structs names should be followed by `_t`.
before committing your change. That will run `git-clang-format` to rewrite only the lines you're modifying.
If you've already committed your changes that's okay since it will then check the files in the most recent commit. This can be useful after you've merged another person's change and want to check that it's style is acceptable. However, in that case it will run `clang-format` to ensure the entire file, not just the lines modified by the commit, conform to the style.
If you want to check the style of the entire code base run
```
make style-all
```
That command will refuse to restyle any files if you have uncommitted changes.
### Configuring Your Editor for Fish C++ Code
#### ViM
As of ViM 7.4 it does not recognize triple-slash comments as used by Doxygen and the OS X Xcode IDE to flag comments that explain the following C symbol. This means the `gq` key binding to reformat such comments doesn't behave as expected. You can fix that by adding the following to your vimrc:
```
autocmd Filetype c,cpp setlocal comments^=:///
```
If you use ViM I recommend the [vim-clang-format plugin](https://github.com/rhysd/vim-clang-format) by [@rhysd](https://github.com/rhysd).
You can also get ViM to provide reasonably correct behavior by installing
If you use ViM: Install [vim-fish](https://github.com/dag/vim-fish), make sure you have syntax and filetype functionality in `~/.vimrc`:
```
syntax enable
filetype plugin indent on
```
Then turn on some options for nicer display of fish scripts in `~/.vim/ftplugin/fish.vim`:
```
" Set up :make to use fish for syntax checking.
compiler fish
" Set this to have long lines wrap inside comments.
setlocal textwidth=79
" Enable folding of block structures in fish.
setlocal foldmethod=expr
```
If you use Emacs: Install [fish-mode](https://github.com/wwwjfy/emacs-fish) (also available in melpa and melpa-stable) and `(setq-default indent-tabs-mode nil)` for it (via a hook or in `use-package`s ":init" block). It can also be made to run fish_indent via e.g.
If you have a good reason for doing so you can tell `clang-format` to not reformat a block of code by enclosing it in comments like this:
```
// clang-format off
code to ignore
// clang-format on
```
However, as I write this there are no places in the code where we use this and I can't think of any legitimate reasons for exempting blocks of code from clang-format.
## Fish Script Style Guide
1. All fish scripts, such as those in the *share/functions* and *tests* directories, should be formatted using the `fish_indent` command.
1. Function names should be in all lowercase with words separated by underscores. Private functions should begin with an underscore. The first word should be `fish` if the function is unique to fish.
1. The first word of global variable names should generally be `fish` for public vars or `_fish` for private vars to minimize the possibility of name clashes with user defined vars.
## C++ Style Guide
1. The [Google C++ Style Guide](https://google.github.io/styleguide/cppguide.html) forms the basis of the fish C++ style guide. There are two major deviations for the fish project. First, a four, rather than two, space indent. Second, line lengths up to 100, rather than 80, characters.
1. The `clang-format` command is authoritative with respect to indentation, whitespace around operators, etc.
1. All names in code should be `small_snake_case`. No Hungarian notation is used. The names for classes and structs should be followed by `_t`.
1. Always attach braces to the surrounding context.
1. Indent with spaces, not tabs and use four spaces per indent.
1. Comments should always use the C++ style; i.e., each line of the comment should begin with a `//` and should be limited to 100 characters. Comments that do not begin a line should be separated from the previous text by two spaces.
1. Comments that document the purpose of a function or class should begin with three slashes, `///`, so that OS X Xcode (and possibly other IDEs) will extract the comment and show it in the "Quick Help" window when the cursor is on the symbol.
## Testing
The source code for fish includes a large collection of tests. If you are making any changes to fish, running these tests is mandatory to make sure the behaviour remains consistent and regressions are not introduced. Even if you don't run the tests on your machine, they will still be run via the [Travis CI](https://travis-ci.org/fish-shell/fish-shell) service.
You are strongly encouraged to add tests when changing the functionality of fish, especially if you are fixing a bug to help ensure there are no regressions in the future (i.e., we don't reintroduce the bug).
### Local testing
The tests can be run on your local computer on all operating systems.
Running the tests is only supported from the autotools build and not xcodebuild. On OS X, you will need to install autoconf — we suggest using [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/) to install these tools.
```
autoconf
./configure
make test # or "gmake test" on BSD
```
### Travis CI Build and Test
The Travis Continuous Integration services can be used to test your changes using multiple configurations. This is the same service that the fish-shell project uses to ensure new changes haven't broken anything. Thus it is a really good idea that you leverage Travis CI before making a pull request to avoid potential embarrassment at breaking the build.
You will need to [fork the fish-shell repository on GitHub](https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo/), then setup Travis to test your changes before making a pull request.
1. [Sign in to Travis CI](https://travis-ci.org/auth) with your GitHub account, accepting the GitHub access permissions confirmation.
1. Once you're signed in and your repositories are synchronized, go to your [profile page](https://travis-ci.org/profile) and enable the fish-shell repository.
1. Push your changes to GitHub.
You'll receive an email when the tests are complete telling you whether or not any tests failed.
You'll find the configuration used to control Travis in the `.travis.yml` file.
### Git hooks
Since developers sometimes forget to run the tests, it can be helpful to use git hooks (see githooks(5)) to automate it.
One possibility is a pre-push hook script like this one:
```sh
#!/bin/sh
#### A pre-push hook for the fish-shell project
# This will run the tests when a push to master is detected, and will stop that if the tests fail
# Save this as .git/hooks/pre-push and make it executable
protected_branch='master'
# Git gives us lines like "refs/heads/frombranch SOMESHA1 refs/heads/tobranch SOMESHA1"
# We're only interested in the branches
whileread from _ to _;do
if["x$to"="xrefs/heads/$protected_branch"];then
isprotected=1
fi
done
if["x$isprotected"= x1 ];then
echo"Running tests before push to master"
make test
RESULT=$?
if[$RESULT -ne 0];then
echo"Tests failed for a push to master, we can't let you do that" >&2
exit1
fi
fi
exit0
```
This will check if the push is to the master branch and, if it is, only allow the push if running `make test` succeeds. In some circumstances it may be advisable to circumvent this check with `git push --no-verify`, but usually that isn't necessary.
To install the hook, place the code in a new file `.git/hooks/pre-push` and make it executable.
### Coverity Scan
We use Coverity's static analysis tool which offers free access to open source projects. While access to the tool itself is restricted, fish-shell organization members should know that they can login [here](https://scan.coverity.com/projects/fish-shell-fish-shell?tab=overview) with their GitHub account. Currently, tests are triggered upon merging the `master` branch into `coverity_scan_master`. Even if you are not a fish developer, you can keep an eye on our statistics there.
## Installing the Required Tools
### Installing the Linting Tools
To install the lint checkers on Mac OS X using Homebrew:
```
brew tap oclint/formulae
brew install oclint
brew install cppcheck
```
To install the lint checkers on Debian-based Linux distributions:
```
sudo apt-get install clang
sudo apt-get install oclint
sudo apt-get install cppcheck
```
### Installing the Reformatting Tools
Mac OS X:
```
brew install clang-format
```
Debian-based:
```
apt-cache search clang-format
```
Above will list all the versions available. Pick the newest one available (3.9 for Ubuntu 16.10 as I write this) and install it:
Fish uses the GNU gettext library to translate messages from English to other languages. To create or update a translation run `make po/[LANGUAGE CODE].po` where `LANGUAGE CODE` is the two letter ISO 639-1 language code of the language you are translating to (e.g. `de` for German). Make sure that you have the `xgettext`, `msgfmt` and `msgmerge` commands installed in order to do this.
All messages in fish script must be enclosed in single or double quote characters. They must also be translated via a subcommand. This means that the following are **not** valid:
```
echo (_ hello)
_ "goodbye"
```
Above should be written like this instead:
```
echo (_ "hello")
echo (_ "goodbye")
```
Note that you can use either single or double quotes to enclose the message to be translated. You can also optionally include spaces after the opening parentheses and once again before the closing parentheses.
Be cautious about blindly updating an existing translation file. Trivial changes to an existing message (e.g., changing the punctuation) will cause existing translations to be removed, since the tools do literal string matching. Therefore, in general, you need to carefully review any recommended deletions.
Read the [translations wiki](https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/wiki/Translations) for more information.

- On Windows 10, fish can be installed under the WSL Windows Subsystem for Linux with `sudo apt install fish` or from source with the instructions below.
- Fish can also be installed on all versions of Windows using [Cygwin](https://cygwin.com/) (from the **Shells** category).
If fish reports that it could not find curses, try installing a curses development package and build again.
### Building from source
On Debian or Ubuntu you want:
If packages are not available for your platform, GPG-signed tarballs are available from
[fishshell.com](https://fishshell.com/) and [fish-shell on
GitHub](https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/releases). See the *Building* section for instructions.
Once installed, run `fish` from your current shell to try fish out!
sudo yum install ncurses-devel
### Dependencies
## Runtime Dependencies
Running fish requires:
fish requires a curses implementation, such as ncurses, to run.
* curses or ncurses (preinstalled on most \*nix systems)
* some common \*nix system utilities (currently `mktemp` and `seq`), in addition to the basic POSIX utilities
* gettext (library and `gettext` command), if compiled with translation support
fish requires a number of utilities to operate, which should be present on any Unix, GNU/Linux or OS X system. These include (but are not limited to) hostname, grep, awk, sed, which, and getopt. fish also requires the bc program.
The following optional features also have specific requirements:
Translation support requires the gettext program.
* builtin commands that have the `--help` option or print usage messages require `nroff` and `ul`
* automated completion generation from manual pages requires Python (2.7+ or 3.3+) and possibly the
`backports.lzma` module for Python 2.7
* the `fish_config` web configuration tool requires Python (2.7+ or 3.3 +) and a web browser
* system clipboard integration (with the default Ctrl-V and Ctrl-X bindings) require either the
`xsel` or `pbcopy`/`pbpaste` utilities
* full completions for `yarn` and `bower` require the `jq` utility
* full completions for `yarn` and `npm` require the `all-the-package-names` NPM module
Some optional features of fish, such as the manual page completion parser and the web configuration tool, require Python.
In order to generate completions from man pages compressed with either lzma or xz, you may need to install an extra Python package. Python versions prior to 2.6 are not supported. For Python versions 2.6 to 3.2 you need to install the module `backports.lzma`. How to install it depends on your system and how you installed Python. Most Linux distributions should include it as a package named `backports-lzma` (or similar). From version 3.3 onwards, Python already includes the required module.
## Packages for Linux
Instructions on how to find builds for several Linux distros are at <https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/wiki/Nightly-builds>
## Switching to fish
### Switching to fish
If you wish to use fish as your default shell, use the following command:
chsh -s /usr/local/bin/fish
chsh will prompt you for your password, and change your default shell.
`chsh` will prompt you for your password and change your default shell. (Substitute `/usr/local/bin/fish` with whatever path fish was installed to, if it differs.)
To switch your default shell back, you can run:
Use the following command if fish isn't already added to `/etc/shells` to permit fish to be your login shell:
chsh -s /bin/bash
echo /usr/local/bin/fish | sudo tee -a /etc/shells
Substitute /bin/bash with /bin/tcsh or /bin/zsh as appropriate.
To switch your default shell back, you can run `chsh -s /bin/bash` (substituting `/bin/bash` with `/bin/tcsh` or `/bin/zsh` as appropriate).
## Building
### Dependencies
Compiling fish requires:
* a C++11 compiler (g++ 4.8 or later, or clang 3.3 or later)
* any of CMake, GNU Make, or (on macOS only) Xcode
* a curses implementation such as ncurses (headers and libraries)
* PCRE2 (headers and libraries) - a copy is included with fish
* gettext (headers and libraries) - optional, for translation support
Additionally, if compiling fish with GNU Make from git (that is, not from an officially released tarball), `autoconf` 2.60+ and `automake` 1.13+ are required. Doxygen (1.8.7 or later) is also optionally required to build the documentation from a cloned git repository.
### Building from source (all platforms)
#### Using CMake (preferred)
```bash
mkdir build;cd build
cmake ..
make
sudo make install
```
#### Using autotools
```bash
autoreconf --no-recursive #if building from Git
./configure
make
sudo make install
```
### Building from source (macOS only)
* Build the `base` target in Xcode
* Run the fish executable, for example, in `DerivedData/fish/Build/Products/Debug/base/bin/fish`
To build and install fish with Xcode on macOS, execute the following in a terminal:
```bash
xcodebuild install
sudo ditto /tmp/fish.dst /
sudo make install-doc
```
### Help, it didn't build!
If fish reports that it could not find curses, try installing a curses development package and build again.

The fish documentation has been updated to support Doxygen 1.8.7+, and while the main benefit of this change is extensive Markdown support, the addition of a fish lexicon and syntax filter, combined with semantic markup rules allows for automatic formatting enhancements across the HTML user_docs, the developer docs and the man pages.
The fish documentation has been updated to support Doxygen 1.8.7+, and while the main benefit of this change is extensive Markdown support, the addition of a fish lexicon and syntax filter, combined with semantic markup rules allows for automatic formatting enhancements across the HTML user_docs and man pages.
Initially my motivation was to fix a problem with long options ([Issue #1557](https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/1557) on GitHub), but as I worked on fixing the issue I realised there was an opportunity to simplify, reinforce and clarify the current documentation, hopefully making further contribution easier and cleaner, while allowing the documentation examples to presented more clearly with less author effort.
While the documentation is pretty robust to variations in the documentation source, adherence to the following style guide will help keep the already excellent documention in good shape moving forward.

## Line breaks and wrapping
Contrary to the rest of the fish source code, the documentation greatly benefits from the use of long lines and soft wrapping. It allows paragraphs to be treated as complete blocks by Doxygen, means that the semantic filter can see complete lines when deciding on how to apply syntax highlighting, and means that man pages will consistently wrap to the width of the users console in advanced pagers, such as 'most'.

### Fonts
In older browsers, it was easy to set the fonts used for the three basic type styles (serif, sans-serif and monospace). Modern browsers have removed these options in their respective quests for simplification, assuming the content author will provide suitable styles for the content in the site's CSS, or the end user will provide overriding styles manually. Doxygen's default styling is very simple and most users will just accept this default.
I've tried to use a sensible set of fonts in the documentation's CSS based on 'good' terminal fonts and as a result the firt preference font used throughout the documentation is '[DejaVu](http://dejavu-fonts.org)'. The rationale behaind this is that while DejaVu is getting a little long in the tooth, it still provides the most complete support across serif, sans-serif and monospace styles (giving a well balanced feel and consistent [x-height](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-height)), has the widest support for extended Unicode characters and has a free, permissive licenses (though it's still incompatible with GPLv2, though arguably less so than the SIL Open Font license, though this is a moot point when using it solely in the docs).

1. The documentation creation process would be better if it could be modularised further and moved out of the makefile into a number of supporting scripts. This would allow both the automake and Xcode build processes to use the documentation scripts directly.
2. Remove the Doxygen dependency entirely for the user documentation. This would be very acheivable now that the bulk of the documentation is in Markdown.
3. It would be useful to gauge what parts of the documentation are actually used by users. Judging by the amount of 'missing comment' errors during the developer docs build phase, this aspect of the docs has been rather neglected. If it is not longer used or useful, then this could change the future direction of the documentation and significantly streamline the process.

\subsection abbr-internals Internals
Each abbreviation is stored in its own global or universal variable. The name consists of the prefix `_fish_abbr_` followed by the WORD after being transformed by `string escape style=var`. The WORD cannot contain a space but all other characters are legal.
Defining an abbreviation with global scope is slightly faster than universal scope (which is the default). But in general you'll only want to use the global scope when defining abbreviations in a startup script like `~/.config/fish/config.fish` like this:
\fish
if status --is-interactive
abbr --add --global first 'echo my first abbreviation'
abbr --add --global second 'echo my second abbreviation'
abbr --add --global gco git checkout
# etcetera
end
\endfish
You can create abbreviations interactively and they will be visible to other fish sessions if you use the `-U` or `--universal` flag or don't explicitly specify the scope and the abbreviation isn't already defined with global scope. If you want it to be visible only to the current shell use the `-g` or `--global` flag.

\section argparse argparse - parse options passed to a fish script or function
\subsection argparse-synopsis Synopsis
\fish{synopsis}
argparse [OPTIONS] OPTION_SPEC... -- [ARG...]
\endfish
\subsection argparse-description Description
This command makes it easy for fish scripts and functions to handle arguments in a manner 100% identical to how fish builtin commands handle their arguments. You pass a sequence of arguments that define the options recognized, followed by a literal `--`, then the arguments to be parsed (which might also include a literal `--`). More on this in the <a href="#argparse-usage">usage</a> section below.
Each OPTION_SPEC can be written in the domain specific language <a href="#argparse-option-specs">described below</a> or created using the companion <a href="#fish-opt">`fish_opt`</a> command. All OPTION_SPECs must appear after any argparse flags and before the `--` that separates them from the arguments to be parsed.
Each option that is seen in the ARG list will result in a var name of the form `_flag_X`, where `X` is the short flag letter and the long flag name. The OPTION_SPEC always requires a short flag even if it can't be used. So there will always be `_flag_X` var set using the short flag letter if the corresponding short or long flag is seen. The long flag name var (e.g., `_flag_help`) will only be defined, obviously, if the OPTION_SPEC includes a long flag name.
For example `_flag_h` and `_flag_help` if `-h` or `--help` is seen. The var will be set with local scope (i.e., as if the script had done `set -l _flag_X`). If the flag is a boolean (that is, does not have an associated value) the values are the short and long flags seen. If the option is not a boolean flag the values will be zero or more values corresponding to the values collected when the ARG list is processed. If the flag was not seen the flag var will not be set.
\subsection argparse-options Options
The following `argparse` options are available. They must appear before all OPTION_SPECs:
- `-n` or `--name` is the command name to insert into any error messages. If you don't provide this value `argparse` will be used.
- `-x` or `--exclusive` should be followed by a comma separated list of short of long options that are mutually exclusive. You can use this option more than once to define multiple sets of mutually exclusive options.
- `-N` or `--min-args` is followed by an integer that defines the minimum number of acceptable non-option arguments. The default is zero.
- `-X` or `--max-args` is followed by an integer that defines the maximum number of acceptable non-option arguments. The default is infinity.
- `-s` or `--stop-nonopt` causes scanning the arguments to stop as soon as the first non-option argument is seen. Using this arg is equivalent to calling the C function `getopt_long()` with the short options starting with a `+` symbol. This is sometimes known as "POSIXLY CORRECT". If this flag is not used then arguments are reordered (i.e., permuted) so that all non-option arguments are moved after option arguments. This mode has several uses but the main one is to implement a command that has subcommands.
- `-h` or `--help` displays help about using this command.
\subsection argparse-usage Usage
Using this command involves passing two sets of arguments separated by `--`. The first set consists of one or more option specifications (`OPTION_SPEC` above) and options that modify the behavior of `argparse`. These must be listed before the `--` argument. The second set are the arguments to be parsed in accordance with the option specifications. They occur after the `--` argument and can be empty. More about this below but here is a simple example that might be used in a function named `my_function`:
If `$argv` is empty then there is nothing to parse and `argparse` returns zero to indicate success. If `$argv` is not empty then it is checked for flags `-h`, `--help`, `-n` and `--name`. If they are found they are removed from the arguments and local variables (more on this <a href="argparse-local-variables">below</a>) are set so the script can determine which options were seen. Assuming `$argv` doesn't have any errors, such as a missing mandatory value for an option, then `argparse` exits with status zero. Otherwise it writes appropriate error messages to stderr and exits with a status of one.
The `--` argument is required. You do not have to include any arguments after the `--` but you must include the `--`. For example, this is acceptable:
\fish
set -l argv
argparse 'h/help' 'n/name' -- $argv
\endfish
But this is not:
\fish
set -l argv
argparse 'h/help' 'n/name' $argv
\endfish
The first `--` seen is what allows the `argparse` command to reliably separate the option specifications from the command arguments.
- A short flag letter (which is mandatory). It must be an alphanumeric or "#". The "#" character is special and means that a flag of the form `-123` is valid. The short flag "#" must be followed by "-" (since the short name isn't otherwise valid since `_flag_#` is not a valid var name) and must be followed by a long flag name with no modifiers.
- A `/` if the short flag can be used by someone invoking your command else `-` if it should not be exposed as a valid short flag. If there is no long flag name these characters should be omitted. You can also specify a '#' to indicate the short and long flag names can be used and the value can be specified as an implicit int; i.e., a flag of the form `-NNN`.
- A long flag name which is optional. If not present then only the short flag letter can be used.
- Nothing if the flag is a boolean that takes no argument or is an implicit int flag, else
- `=` if it requires a value and only the last instance of the flag is saved, else
- `=?` it takes an optional value and only the last instance of the flag is saved, else
- `=+` if it requires a value and each instance of the flag is saved.
- Optionally a `!` followed by fish script to validate the value. Typically this will be a function to run. If the return status is zero the value for the flag is valid. If non-zero the value is invalid. Any error messages should be written to stdout (not stderr). See the section on <a href="#arparse-validation">Flag Value Validation</a> for more information.
See the <a href="#fish-opt">`fish_opt`</a> command for a friendlier but more verbose way to create option specifications.
In the following examples if a flag is not seen when parsing the arguments then the corresponding _flag_X var(s) will not be set.
\subsection argparse-validation Flag Value Validation
It is common to want to validate the the value provided for an option satisfies some criteria. For example, that it is a valid integer within a specific range. You can always do this after `argparse` returns but you can also request that `argparse` perform the validation by executing arbitrary fish script. To do so simply append an `!` (exclamation-mark) then the fish script to be run. When that code is executed three vars will be defined:
- `_argparse_cmd` will be set to the value of the value of the `argparse --name` value.
- `_flag_name` will be set to the short or long flag that being processed.
- `_flag_value` will be set to the value associated with the flag being processed.
If you do this via a function it should be defined with the `--no-scope-shadowing` flag. Otherwise it won't have access to those variables.
The script should write any error messages to stdout, not stderr. It should return a status of zero if the flag value is valid otherwise a non-zero status to indicate it is invalid.
Fish ships with a `_validate_int` function that accepts a `--min` and `--max` flag. Let's say your command accepts a `-m` or `--max` flag and the minimum allowable value is zero and the maximum is 5. You would define the option like this: `m/max=!_validate_int --min 0 --max 5`. The default if you just call `_validate_int` without those flags is to simply check that the value is a valid integer with no limits on the min or max value allowed.
\subsection argparse-optspec-examples Example OPTION_SPECs
Some OPTION_SPEC examples:
- `h/help` means that both `-h` and `--help` are valid. The flag is a boolean and can be used more than once. If either flag is used then `_flag_h` and `_flag_help` will be set to the count of how many times either flag was seen.
- `h-help` means that only `--help` is valid. The flag is a boolean and can be used more than once. If the long flag is used then `_flag_h` and `_flag_help` will be set to the count of how many times the long flag was seen.
- `n/name=` means that both `-n` and `--name` are valid. It requires a value and can be used at most once. If the flag is seen then `_flag_n` and `_flag_name` will be set with the single mandatory value associated with the flag.
- `n/name=?` means that both `-n` and `--name` are valid. It accepts an optional value and can be used at most once. If the flag is seen then `_flag_n` and `_flag_name` will be set with the value associated with the flag if one was provided else it will be set with no values.
- `n-name=+` means that only `--name` is valid. It requires a value and can be used more than once. If the flag is seen then `_flag_n` and `_flag_name` will be set with the values associated with each occurrence of the flag.
- `x` means that only `-x` is valid. It is a boolean can can be used more than once. If it is seen then `_flag_x` will be set to the count of how many times the flag was seen.
- `x=`, `x=?`, and `x=+` are similar to the n/name examples above but there is no long flag alternative to the short flag `-x`.
- `x-` is not valid since there is no long flag name and therefore the short flag, `-x`, has to be usable.
- `#-max` means that flags matching the regex "^--?\d+$" are valid. When seen they are assigned to the variable `_flag_max`. This allows any valid positive or negative integer to be specified by prefixing it with a single "-". Many commands support this idiom. For example `head -3 /a/file` to emit only the first three lines of /a/file.
- `n#max` means that flags matching the regex "^--?\d+$" are valid. When seen they are assigned to the variables `_flag_n` and `_flag_max`. This allows any valid positive or negative integer to be specified by prefixing it with a single "-". Many commands support this idiom. For example `head -3 /a/file` to emit only the first three lines of /a/file. You can also specify the value using either flag: `-n NNN` or `--max NNN` in this example.
After parsing the arguments the `argv` var is set with local scope to any values not already consumed during flag processing. If there are not unbound values the var is set but `count $argv` will be zero.
If an error occurs during argparse processing it will exit with a non-zero status and print error messages to stderr.
\subsection argparse-notes Notes
Prior to the addition of this builtin command in the 2.7.0 release there were two main ways to parse the arguments passed to a fish script or function. One way was to use the OS provided `getopt` command. The problem with that is that the GNU and BSD implementations are not compatible. Which makes using that external command difficult other than in trivial situations. The other way is to iterate over `$argv` and use the fish `switch` statement to decide how to handle the argument. That, however, involves a huge amount of boilerplate code. It is also borderline impossible to implement the same behavior as builtin commands.
