The user may write for example:
echo foo >&5
and fish would try to output to file descriptor 5, within the fish process
itself. This has unpredictable effects and isn't useful. Make this an
error.
Note that the reverse is "allowed" but ignored:
echo foo 5>&1
this conceptually dup2s stdout to fd 5, but since no builtin writes to fd
5 we ignore it.
After commit 6dd6a57c60, 3 remaining
builtins were affected by uint8_t overflow: `exit`, `return`, and
`functions --query`.
This commit:
- Moves the overflow check from `builtin_set_query` to `builtin_run`.
- Removes a conflicting int -> uint8_t conversion in `builtin_return`.
- Adds tests for the 3 remaining affected builtins.
- Simplifies the wording for the documentation for `set --query`.
- Does not change documentation for `functions --query`, because it does
not state the exit code in its API.
- Updates the CHANGELOG to reflect the change to all builtins.
builtin_set_query returns the number of missing variables. Because the
return value passed to the shell is an 8-bit unsigned integer, if the
number of missing variables is a multiple of 256, it would overflow to 0.
This commit saturates the return value at 255 if there are more than 255
missing variables.
This introduces a new variable $fish_color_keyword that will be used
to highlight keywords. If it's not defined, we fall back on
$fish_color_command as before.
An issue here is that most of our keywords have this weird duality of
also being builtins *if* executed without an argument or with
`--help`.
This means that e.g.
if
is highlighted as a command until you start typing
if t
and then it turns keyword.
E.g. autoloading and aliases are both about functions, variable scope
and overrides are both about variables.
It makes sense to group these together, and this might allow us to
collapse some of the TOC later.
Also move abbr explanation to interactive use (as abbrs are purely an
interactive concept)
(also add an example to tilde expansion, not making a separate commit
for that)
This goes to a separate file because that makes option parsing easier
and allows profiling both at the same time.
The "normal" profile now contains only the profile data of the actual
run, which is much more useful - you can now profile a function by
running
fish -C 'source /path/to/thing' --profile /tmp/thefunction.prof -c 'thefunction'
and won't need to filter out extraneous information.
This allows us to flex them together, so now you get one column on the
left with the title "Documents" and one on the right saying
"Sections" on narrow screens.
On wide screens it doesn't say "Table Of Contents" twice.
This should make it clearer
This used to put the TOC last, which is the last place you'd want it.
It's not perfect and we do some hacky layoutery to achieve it, but it
should generally be usable.
This makes the *tables* themselves scrollable, not the section div
they are in, which means the section doesn't scroll along with
them (it's already reflowed).
We should typically avoid scrolling even at max-width.
An exception here is the output of `functions` - this prints one very
long line, but it's really not important what's in there specifically,
it's just to illustrate the kind of output you'd get.
This clips overflowing padding/margins and thereby removes
non-"content" that's just off-screen, making the site scrollable.
The exception here is for tables - we allow scrolling the *section*
divs for those (because I have no idea how to only make the <table>
scrollable), if necessary of course.
This came up online - here we exclaim that fish has no aliases (which
is true), but then in the main docs we explain that you can use
`alias` to make something (which is also true).
Add a foot note explaining the apparent contradiction.
