This binding is akin to ForwardSingleChar but it is "passive" in that is not
intended to affect the meta state of the shell: autocompletions are not accepted
if the cursor is at the end of input and it does not have any effect in the
completions pager.
Currently, we expand command-abbrs (those with `--position command`) after `if`, but not after `command` or `builtin` or `time`:
```fish
abbr --add gc "git checkout"
```
will expand as `if gc` but not as `command gc`.
This was explicitly tested, but I have no idea why it shouldn't be?
The incorrect order of operations was being used since && binds tighter than ||
in rust (as with most sane languages).
Under Linux, EAGAIN == EWOULDBLOCK so this would always succeed in the case of a
non-blocking fd without making the call to make_fd_nonblocking().
Comparing to the 3.7.0 C++ code, it looks like this was an oversight introduced
in the migration to rust.
In particular, this allows restoring the terminal on crashes, which is
feasible now that we have the panic handler. Since std::process::exit() skips
destructors, we need to reshuffle some code. The "exit_without_destructors"
semantics (which std::process::exit() als has) was mostly necessary for C++
since Rust leaks global variables by default.
Today fish_cursor_selection_mode controls whether selection mode includes
the cursor. Since it's by default only used for Vi mode, perhaps use it to
also decide whether it should be allowed to select one-past the last character.
Not allowing to select to select one-past the last character is much nicer
in Vi mode. Unfortunately Vi mode sometimes needs to temporarily select
past end (using forward-single-char and such), so reset fish_cursor_selection_mode
for the duration of the binding.
Also fix other things like cursor placement after yank/yank-pop.

A long standing issue is that bindings cannot mix special input functions
and shell commands. For example,
bind x end-of-line "commandline -i x"
silently does nothing. Instead we have to do lift everything to shell commands
bind x "commandline -f end-of-line; commandline -i x"
for no good reason.
Additionally, there is a weird ordering difference between special input
functions and shell commands. Special input functions are pushed into the
the queue whereas shell commands are executed immediately.
This weird ordering means that the above "bind x" still doesn't work as
expected, because "commandline -i" is processed before "end-of-line".
Finally, this is all implemented via weird hack to allow recursive use of
a mutable reference to the reader state.
Fix all of this by processing shell commands the same as both special input
functions and regular chars. Hopefully this doesn't break anything.

Multiline search strings are weirdly broken (inserting control characters
in the command line) and probably not very useful anyway.
On the other hand I often want to compose a multi-line command
from single-line commands I ran previously.
Let's support this case by limiting the initial search string to the current
line; and replace only that line.
Alternatively this could operate on jobs (that is, replace a surrounding
"foo | bar") instead of using line boundaries.
Call fish_should_add_to_history to see if a command should be saved
If it returns 0, it will be saved, if it returns anything else, it
will be ephemeral.
It gets the right-trimmed text as the argument.
If it doesn't exist, we do the historical behavior of checking for a
leading space.
That means you can now turn that off by defining a
`fish_should_add_to_history` that just doesn't check it.
documentation based on #9298
As mentioned in the comment the historical behavior is because pressing unknown
control characters like Ctrl+4 inserts confusing characters, so let's back
out that part of b77d1d0e2 (Stop crashing on invalid Unicode input, 2024-02-27).
We still have the code for rendering control characters, for pasted text,
or text recalled from history. It is unclear whether we should strip those.
Some terminals already strip control characters from pasted text -- but not
all of them: see https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/pulls/312 for example which
has a follow up called "Don't strip HT when pasting in non-bracketed mode".
Don't force the internal use of `RefCell<T>`, let the caller place that into
`MainThread<>` manually. This lets us remove the reference to `MainThread<>`
from the definition of `Screen` again and reduces the number of
`assert_is_main_thread()` calls.
Fairly straightforward, with the only unfortunate part of this being that
`Screen` isn't as pure and now encodes the facte that we use it with
main-thread-only stdout `Outputter`.
Unlike C++, Rust requires "char" to be a valid Unicode code point. As a
workaround, we take the raw (probably UTF-8-encoded) input and convert each
input byte to a char representation from the private use area (see commit
3b15e995e (str2wcs: encode invalid Unicode characters in the private use
area, 2023-04-01)). We convert back whenever we output the string, which
is correct as long as the encoding didn't change since the data was input.
We also need to convert keyboard input; do that.
Quick testing shows that our reader drops PUA characters. Since this patch
converts both invalid Unicode input as well as PUA input into a safe PUA
representation, there's no longer a reason to not add PUA characters to
the commandline, so let's do that to restore traditional behavior.
Render them as � (REPLACEMENT CHARACTER); unfortunately we show one per
input byte instead of one per code point. To fix this we probably need our
own char type.
While at it, remove some special cases that try to prevent insertion of
control characters. I don't think they are necessary. Could be wrong..
Commit e5b34d5cd (Suppress autosuggesting during backspacing like browsers do,
2012-02-06) disabled autosuggestion when backspacing. Autosuggestions are
re-enabled whenever we insert anything in the command line. Undo uses a
different code path to insert into the command line, which does not re-enable
autosuggestion.
Fix that.
Also re-enable autosuggestion when undo erases from the command line.
This seems like the simplest approach. It's not clear if there's a better
behavior; browsers don't agree on one in any case.
Currently, if you enter `echo` and press up-arrow, it might select
e.g. `echo foo`.
You can then enter text, making it `echo foobar` and press up-arrow
again, but the search string is *still* `echo`.
Many *other* input functions will end history search, including e.g.
expand-abbr, so pressing space by default will already end it.
So this ends the history search once you input something.
Incidentally this allows suggestions to work in this case, so it
Fixes#10287
Note that autosuggestions have been disabled while history search is
active since a08450bcb6, I'm not sure
it's actually *needed*, so it would also be possible to enable it in
that case.
But since this is already awkward (history search is *active* but with
the old search string) and I'm not sure if e.g. suggestions during
history search would be too busy, let's do this first.
Commit 5f849d0 changed control-C to print an inverted ^C and then a newline.
The original motivation was

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.
