ab2db135ba docs: Add first draft of fish-vs-bash
That name's probably not the correct one.

The idea is to have a quick primer document for people coming from bash.

77fc83c293 docs: Reword history substitution
That prepend-sudo note was a bit awkward. I'm still not super happy
with it, but it should be better.

Also remove the "simple but effective" comment.

Let __fish_prepend_sudo use the last commandline if there is no current one (#7079)
* docs/faq: Mention prepend_sudo

[ci skip]

* __fish_prepend_sudo: Use $history[1] if commandline is empty

Currently, if you press alt+s with an empty commandline, it inserts
"sudo", which seems fairly useless.

Now, it inserts "sudo " followed by the last history entry, which
makes it a replacement for `sudo !!`.

44184f68e4 Add status dirname and status basename convenience commands
There's a terrible number of fishscripts that start with

    set path (dirname (status filename))

And that's really just a bit boring.

So let's let it be

    set path (status dirname)

Add an "_" builtin to call into gettext (#7036)
* Add an "_" builtin to call into gettext

We already have gettext in C++ (if available), so it seems weird to
fork off a command to start it from script.

This is only for fish's own translations. There's no way to call into
other catalogs, it just translates all arguments separately.

This is faster by a factor of ~1000, which allows us to call
translations much more, especially from scripts.

E.g. making fish_greeting global by default would hurt cost-wise,
given that my fish starts up in 8ms and just calling the current `_`
function takes 2ms, and that would have two calls.

Incidentally, this also makes us rely on a weirdly defined function
less, so it:
Fixes #6804.

* docs: Add `_` docs

Let's see if that filename works out.

1e17a68133 docs/tutorial: Recommend fish_add_path over $fish_user_paths 2020-05-29 20:51:09 +02:00
Fabian Homborg
9354dd6971 Add fish_add_path, a simple way to add to $PATH
This is a function you can either execute once, interactively, or
stick in config.fish, and it will do the right thing.

Some options are included to choose some slightly different behavior,
like setting $PATH directly instead of $fish_user_paths, or moving
already existing components to the front/back instead of ignoring
them, or appending new components instead of prepending them.

The defaults were chosen because they are the most safe, and
especially because they allow it to be idempotent - running it again
and again and again won't change anything, it won't even run the
actual `set` because it skips that if all components are already in.

Fixes #6960.
