This adds a new readline command self-insert-notfirst, which is
analogous to self-insert, except that it does nothing if the cursor
is at the beginning. This will serve as a higher-performance implementation
for stripping leading spaces on paste.
Add the input function undo which is bound to `\c_` (control + / on
some terminals). Redoing the most recent chain of undos is supported,
redo is bound to `\e/` for now.
Closes#1367.
This approach should not have the issues discussed in #5897.
Every single modification to the commandline can be undone individually,
except for adjacent single-character inserts, which are coalesced,
so they can be reverted with a single undo. Coalescing is not done for
space characters, so each word can be undone separately.
When moving between history search entries, only the current history
search entry is reachable via the undo history. This allows to go back
to the original search string with a single undo, or by pressing the
escape key.
Similarly, when moving between pager entries, only the most recent
selection in the pager can be undone.
Prior to this fix, self-insert would always wait for a new character.
Track in char_event what sequence generated the readline event, and then
if the sequence is not empty, insert that sequence.
This will support implementing the space binding via pure readline
functions.
This sequence can be generatd by control-spacebar. Allow it to be bound
properly.
To do this we must be sure that we never round-trip the key sequence
through a C string.
This makes the following changes:
1. Events in background threads are executed in those threads, instead of
being silently dropped
2. Blocked events are now per-parser instead of global
3. Events are posted in builtin_set instead of within the environment stack
The last one means that we no longer support event handlers for implicit
sets like (example) argv. Instead only the `set` builtin (and also `cd`)
post variable-change events.
Events from universal variable changes are still not fully rationalized.
The enum starts at 0 (defined to be!), so we can eliminate this one.
That allows us to remove a reliance on the position of
beginning_of_line, and it would trigger a "type-limits" warning.
Also leave a comment because I actually hit that.
This runs build_tools/style.fish, which runs clang-format on C++, fish_indent on fish and (new) black on python.
If anything is wrong with the formatting, we should fix the tools, but automated formatting is worth it.
If we switch the bind mode, we add a "force-repaint" there just to
redraw the mode indicator.
That's quite wasteful and annoying, considering that sometimes the prompt can take
half a second.
So we add a "repaint-mode" function that just reexecutes the
mode-prompt and uses the cached values for the others.
Fixes#5783.
* Add "expand-abbr" bind function
This can be used to explictly allow expanding abbreviations.
* Make expanding abbr explicit
NOTE: This accepts them for space only, we currently also do it for \n
and \r.
* Remove now dead code
We no longer trigger an abbr implicitly, so we can remove the code
that does it.
* Fix comment
[ci skip]
fish's signal handlers are now sufficiently innocuous that there should
be no reason to block signals (outside of temporarily, when creating a
thread and we need to manipulate the signal mask).
Prior to this fix, an "event" was used as both a predicate on which events
to match, and also as the event itself. Re-express these concepts
distinctly: an event is something that happened, an event_handler is the
predicate and name of the function to execute.
If we read an R_EOF, we'd try to match mappings to it.
In emacs mode, that's not an issue because the generic binding was
always available, but in vi-normal mode there is no generic binding,
so we'd endlessly loop, waiting for another character.
Fixes#5528.
* 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 allows for marking certain bindings as part of a preset, which allows us to
- only erase those when switching presets
- go back to the preset binding when erasing a user binding
- only show user customization if requested
- make bare bind statements in config.fish work (!!!11elf!!!)
Fixes#5191.
Fixes#3699.
- Add support for:
- Jumping to the character before a target.
- Repeating the previous jump (same direction, same precision).
- Repeating the previous jump in the reverse order.
- Enhance vi bindings.
While supported by gcc and clang, \e is a gcc-specific extension and not
formally defined in the C or C++ standards.
See [0] for a list of valid escapes.

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!
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.
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
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.
Internally fish should store vars as a vector of elements. The current
flat string representation is a holdover from when the code was written
in C.
Fixes#4200
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.
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.
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.
Fixes#3850
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
Fixes#3214
