Fish functions are great for configuring fish but they don't integrate
seamlessly with the rest of the system. For tasks that can run outside fish,
writing scripts is the natural approach.
To edit my scripts I frequently run
$EDITOR (which my-script)
Would be great to reduce the amount typing for this common case (the names
of editor and scripts are usually short, so that's a lot of typing spent on
the boring part).
Our Alt+o binding opens the file at the cursor in a pager. When the cursor
is in command position, it doesn't do anything (unless the command is actually
a valid file path). Let's make it open the resolved file path in an editor.
In future, we should teach this binding to delegate to "funced" upon seeing
a function instead of a script. I didn't do it yet because funced prints
messages, so it will mess with the commandline rendering if used from
a binding. (The fact that funced encourages overwriting functions that
ship with fish is worrysome. Also I'm not sure why funced doesn't open the
function's source file directly (if not sourced from stdin). Persisting the
function should probably be the default.)
Alternative approach: I think other shells expand "=my-script" to
"/path/to/my-script". That is certainly an option -- if we do that we'd want
to teach fish to complete command names after "=". Since I don't remember
scenarios where I care about the full path of a script beyond opening it in
my editor, I didn't look further into this.
Closes#10266
Version 2.1.0 introduced subsequence matching for completions but as the
changelog entry mentions, "This feature [...] is not yet implemented for
options (like ``--foobar``)". Add it. Seems like a strict improvement,
pretty much.
Issue #10194 reports Cobra completions do
set -l args (commandline -opc)
eval $args[1] __complete $args[2..] (commandline -ct | string escape)
The intent behind "eval" is to expand variables and tildes in "$args".
Fair enough. Several of our own completions do the same, see the next commit.
The problem with "commandline -o" + "eval" is that the former already
removes quotes that are relevant for "eval". This becomes a problem if $args
contains quoted () or {}, for example this command will wrongly execute a
command substituion:
git --work-tree='(launch-missiles)' <TAB>
It is possible to escape the string the tokens before running eval, but
then there will be no expansion of variables etc. The problem is that
"commandline -o" only unescapes tokens so they end up in a weird state
somewhere in-between what the user typed and the expanded version.
Remove the need for "eval" by introducing "commandline -x" which expands
things like variables and braces. This enables custom completion scripts to
be aware of shell variables without eval, see the added test for completions
to "make -C $var/some/dir ".
This means that essentially all third party scripts should migrate from
"commandline -o" to "commandline -x". For example
set -l tokens
if commandline -x >/dev/null 2>&1
set tokens (commandline -xpc)
else
set tokens (commandline -opc)
end
Since this is mainly used for completions, the expansion skips command
substitutions. They are passed through as-is (instead of cancelling or
expanding to nothing) to make custom completion scripts work reasonably well
in the common case. Of course there are cases where we would want to expand
command substitutions here, so I'm not sure.
If I alias "e" to "emacsclient" it will probably accept the same options.
Let's dereference the alias so we can detect support for passing the cursor
position in more cases.
This does not solve the problem for recursive cases (e.g. alias of another
alias). If we want to handle that we would need cycle detection.
Commit 5f849d0 changed control-C to print an inverted ^C and then a newline.
The original motivation was
> In bash if you type something and press ctrl-c then the content of the line
> is preserved and the cursor is moved to a new line. In fish the ctrl-c just
> clears the line. For me the behaviour of bash is a bit better, because it
> allows me to type something then press ctrl-c and I have the typed string
> in the log for further reference.
This sounds like a valid use case in some scenarios but I think that most
abandoned commands are noise. After all, the user erased them. Also, now that
we have undo that can be used to get back a limited set of canceled commands.
I believe the original motivation for existing behavior (in other shells) was
that TERM=dumb does not support erasing characters. Similarly, other shells
like to leave behind other artifacts, for example when using tab-completion
or in their interactive menus but we generally don't.
Control-C is the obvious way to quickly clear a multi-line commandline.
IPython does the same. For the other behavior we have Alt-# although that's
probably not very well-known.
Restore the old Control-C behavior of simply clearing the command line.
Our unused __fish_cancel_commandline still prints the ^C. For folks who
have explicitly bound ^C to that, it's probably better to keep the existing
behavior, so let's leave this one.
Previous attempt at #4713 fizzled.
Closes#10213
By default, fish does not complete files that have leading dots, unless the
wildcard itself has a leading dot. However this also affected completions;
for example `git add` would not offer `.gitlab-ci.yml` because it has a
leading dot.
Relax this for custom completions. Default file expansion still
suppresses leading dots, but now custom completions can create
leading-dot completions and they will be offered.
Fixes#3707.
(cherry picked from commit b7de768c73)
The existing subsequence search commonly returns false positives.
Support globs, to allow searching for disconnected substrings in a better way.
Closes#10143Closes#10131
Padding with an unprintable character is now disallowed, like it was for other
zero-length characters.
`string shorten` now ignores escape sequences and non-printable characters
when calculating the visible width of the ellipsis used (except for `\b`,
which is treated as a width of -1).
Previously `fish_wcswidth` returned a length of -1 when the ellipsis-str
contained any non-printable character, causing the command to poentially
print a larger width than expected.
This also fixes an integer overflows in `string shorten`'s
`max` and `max2`, when the cumulative sum of character widths turned negative
(e.g. with any non-printable characters, or `\b` after the changes above).
The overflow potentially caused strings containing non-printable characters
to be truncated.
This adds test that verify the fixed behaviour.

Commit 3b30d92b6 (Commit transient edit when closing pager, 2022-08-31)
inadvertently introduced two regressions to history search:
1. It made Escape keeps the selected history entry,
instead of restoring the commandline before history search.
2. It made history search commands add undo entries.
Fix both of this issues.
When running inside SSH, Control-X runs a clipboard utility on the remote
system. For pbcopy (and probably clip.exe too) this means that we write to the
remote system's clipboard. This is usually not what the user wants (although
it is consistent with fish_clipboard_paste). When X11 forwarding is used,
xclip/xsel copy to the SSH client's clipboard, which is what most users want.
When we don't have X11 forwarding, we need a different solution. Fortunately,
modern terminal emulators implement the OSC 52 escape sequence for setting
the clipboard of the terminal's system. Use it in fish_clipboard_copy.
Tested in SSH and Docker containers on foot, iTerm2, kitty, tmux and xterm
(this one requires "XTerm.vt100.allowWindowOps: true").
Should also work in GNU screen and Windows Terminal. On terminals that don't
support OSC 52 (like Gnome Terminal or Konsole), it seems to do nothing.
Since there does not seem to be a way to feature-probe OSC 52, let's just
always do both (pbcopy and friends as well as OSC 52). In future, we should
probably stop calling pbpaste and clip.exe, at least on remote systems.
I think there is also an escape sequence to request pasting the system
clipboard but that's less important and less popular, possibly due to
security concerns.
