This is super cheesy.
One of the most common feature requests we get is "control-r must
search", even tho just using history-search-backward via e.g. up-arrow
is perfectly capable. The only real difference is that ctrl-r search
in other shells allows editing the search term by default, while we
stop the history search and edit the new commandline in those cases.
So, since the major problem is muscle-memory on ctrl-r,
let's just use that!
This makes ctrl-r do nothing on empty commandlines, and do
history-search-backward otherwise, so the basic flow of "press ctrl-r
to start history search, enter your search term, press ctrl-r to cycle
through matches" just works (except the first ctrl-r is useless and it
doesn't show anything).
See #602.
These aliases seem to be common, see #7389 and others. This prevents
recursion on that example, so `alias ssh "env TERM=screen ssh"` will just
have the same completions as ssh.
Checking the last token is a heuristic which hopefully works for most
cases. Users are encouraged to use functions instead of aliases.
In the new __fish_apropos, makewhatis is run explicitly to generate the
whatis database. However this can be a little slow. Run it in the
background, after the apropos call completes so as to avoid a weird
race.
This means that descriptions may not be available the first time the
user invokes it, but that's better than appearing to hang for a while.

This was a wrapper around status_to_signal, just because that only
handled a single argument.
Instead, just teach status_to_signal to handle multiple arguments and
be done.
This is too important to not be one.
For one if it couldn't be loaded for any reason it would
break a lot of fish scripts.
Also this is faster by ~20x.

"function --argument" is not a thing, it's "--argument-names". This only
accidentally works because our getopt is awful and allows abbreviated
long options.
Similarly, one argparse test used "--d" instead of "-d" or "--def".
When pressing \ep on an empty commandline, the cursor would stay at the
beginning of the commandline. Move it to the end of the previous command,
this feels a bit more natural.
The case for symlinked directories being duplicated a lot isn't there,
but there *is* a usecase for adding the symlink rather than the
target, and that's homebrew.
E.g. homebrew installs ruby into /usr/local/Cellar/ruby/2.7.1_2/bin,
and links to it from /usr/local/opt/ruby/bin. If we add the target, we
would miss updates.
Having path entries that point to the same location isn't a big
problem - it's a path lookup, so it takes a teensy bit longer. The
canonicalization is mainly so paths don't end up duplicated via weird
spelling and so relative paths can be used.
Since version 5 (IIRC), pacman has a file database.
This is useful for people who don't have pkgfile, but we still prefer
that because it's much faster - pacman takes a full *second* on my system.
This could lead to an infinite loop (well, stack overflow) because
fish_command_not_found would also be defined to call
__fish_command_not_found_handler.
Since this is for
- missing command errors
- when downgrading
we can just remove it.
Previously, when a command wasn't found, fish would emit the
"fish_command_not_found" *event*.
This was annoying as it was hard to override (the code ended up
checking for a function called `__fish_command_not_found_handler`
anyway!), the setup was ugly,
and it's useless - there is no use case for multiple command-not-found handlers.
Instead, let's just call a function `fish_command_not_found` if it
exists, or print the default message otherwise.
The event is completely removed, but because a missing event is not an error
(MEISNAE in C++-speak) this isn't an issue.
Note that, for backwards-compatibility, we still keep the default
handler function around even tho the new one is hard-coded in C++.
Also, if we detect a previous handler, the new handler just calls it.
This way, the backwards-compatible way to install a custom handler is:
```fish
function __fish_command_not_found_handler --on-event fish_command_not_found
# do a little dance, make a little love, get down tonight
end
```
and the new hotness is
```fish
function fish_command_not_found
# do the thing
end
```
Fixes#7293.
Commit 5d135d555 (prompts: fix pipestatus for jobs prefixed with "not")
introduced a backwards compatibility hack about adding an optional argument
to __fish_print_pipestatus. This hack would break downgrading to fish 3.1.2
if the user copied the new prompt to their config - they would get a backtrace
on every prompt which is arguably worse than the patch's minor improvement.
This does away with the error trace - old fish just won't show the fancy
new pipestatus on `not true`.
Implemented by passing the last $status as the poor man's kwarg, which works
since 3.1.0 (9b86d5dd1 Export all local exported variables in a new scope).
The prompts don't work with fish 3.0.0 or older; downgrading does not seem
too important in general but I think this patch is an okay simplification.
Now command, jobs, type, abbr, builtin, functions and set take `-q` to
query for existence, but the long option is inconsistent.
The first three use `--quiet`, the latter use `--query`. Add `--query`
to the first three, but keep `--quiet` around.
Fixes#7276.
These passed " [" to __fish_print_pipestatus as the left brace.
If the color contained a background, that would also color the space
in, leading to a weird unbalanced space before and none after.
Instead, prepend the whitespace when printing later.

* fix Subversion prompt
- after switching to "string match", some SVN status symbols need
proper escaping
- the __fish_svn_prompt_flag_names list was missing
"versioned_obstructed" and was therefore not in line with
the symbols from __fish_svn_prompt_chars
- when checking for individual SVN status symbols, use
"string match -e" to handle the case where multiple different
symbols appear in one status column
- use "sort -u" before merging all symbols from a column into
one line
Fixes#6715
* use regex for SVN status matching
Using regex matching will prevent different match behaviour
depending on qmark-noglob feature.
Also, counting the resulting matches is unnecessary.
* use list instead of string for SVN status
Make $column_status a list be not removing newlines from SVN status
output. This makes checking for the individual status types within
a column easier because it doesn't require regex matching.
* added quotes for string length test (-n)
This adds a "fish_greeting" function that prints the variable of the
same name.
In doing so, it makes $fish_greeting default to a global
variable (this is of little cost because of the `_` builtin)
This means that:
- We have fewer universal variables by default
- If we change the default greeting people will actually get
- it (unless they have a leftover universal, of course)
- If the user changes their language the variable changes with it
New fish_indent does that too, so this will make any future reformatting
diffs smaller.
Done using either of:
perl -pi -e 'undef $/; s/\n*$/\n/' share/**.fish
kak -n -f '<a-/>\n*<ret>d' share/**.fish
fish's internal completion logic is much smarter than the globbing in this
function, so let's just reuse "complete -C", and filter directories and
files with the given suffix.
Thanks to @Kratacoa for reporting on Gitter.
Using "complete -C" works well no prefix is given. Since in this repository
only the openocd completions pass a prefix, I left the prefix-case as is.
It could probably be improved and simplified as well. The prefix argument was
introduced to avoid cd's side effects inside a completion. Using cd is tempting
though because it would allow to use the same logic as without a prefix.
"repaint" here is a bit of a misnomer. It *doesn't* re-highlight, that
just happens on its own.
It re-runs the prompt, which can take quite a while (depending on the
configuration), and which is also useless in this context as this
isn't something the prompt will be reacting to (theoretically it
could, but I doubt the utility of displaying "PASTE" for a few milliseconds).
The external-commands-only completion was briefly added in 3.1.0 and removed
in 3.1.1 (see #6798), which means we can remove some dead code.
Maybe we should just remove __fish_complete_external_command - it could break
users, but then again, we don't really have a way to stop people from starting
to use this deprecated function. The underscores ought to communicate that
this is function is private to fish but that is not enforced.
If it can't recognize the DE, xdg-open uses a "generic" way of opening
things where it doesn't spawn off a DE-provided utility like kde-open.
This sounds great, but it fails to fork and therefore blocks the
terminal.
So we start it in the background and disown it.

This allows cygstart to be manually set as a browser, with or without arguments
This had this weird "pass along the sha, then check" logic to it which
is entirely unnecessary.
This function just says when something is staged, nothing more. Why
that is you can figure out for yourself.
This makes it easier to call this function, and it no longer prints an
empty line if nothing is staged.
This wasn't added to the prompt status order, so it was computed and
then not used for the informative prompt.
We still check later if we should compute it, so this is harmless if
showstashstate is unset.
Fixes#7136.
On my system this printed just "Description:" without any additional

"Interactive" has multiple meanings here, one of them being "the whole shell" is interactive, which `status is-interactive` tests, and one "this interaction is interactive", which happens when `read`ing in a script.
Fixes#7080.
* 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:

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.
fish_git_prompt encloses its output in brackets, however this can be changed by supplying a format string to it, i.e. `fish_git_prompt %s`.
However when using `fish_vcs_prompt` there's no way to pass on the arg to fish_git_prompt, so you need to manually remove it.
fish_hg_prompt doesn't have the same format string support as fish_git_prompt, but I suppose it could be added later if needed.
We don't need to call it if a job was stopped, because in that case
read_i() will fire fish_prompt already, because the newly stopped job
was probably a foreground job.
Fixes#1018
The default implementation will not print any output in that case, but this provides users with additional flexibility when it comes to customising the shell's behaviour.
This allows users to customise the behaviour of the shell by redefining the function. This is similar to how fish_title or fish_greeting behave, where the default implementation can be easily overridden.
The function receives as arguments the job id, command line, signal name and signal description.
At the moment calling __fish_prepend_sudo multiple times does not toggle
sudo, and also unnecessarily uses the `-c` flag to `commandline` to see if
the first token on the commandline is "sudo".
This change removes the `-c` switch and also toggles "sudo" on multiple
calls to __fish_prepend_sudo, while maintaining the cursor position and
while maintaining any spaces between "sudo" and the next token on the
commandline.
The completions for help know many more help topics, it makes no sense
to whitelist them here.
Fix anchor links for tutorial sections.
Remove some dead code: the "man" branch was unreachable because of the

This reverts commit 535845861a.
That commit introduced a bug where tab-completing commands no longer
prints their descriptions, unless there is an exact match.
When this switched over from directly piping commandline to storing
its output and using printf, I inadvertently always added a trailing
newline. That's probably annoying.
Note that this will now always *remove* a trailing newline (because
the command substitution does). That will barely make a
difference (because trailing newlines are quite unusual in the
commandline) and will probably feel better than keeping it - we could
even make a point of removing trailing whitespace in general.
Fixes#6927
This updates the behavior of tilde to match the behavior found in vim.
In vim, tilde toggles the case of the character under the cursor and
advances one character. In visual mode, the case of each selected
character is toggled, the cursor position moves to the beginning of
the selection, and the mode is changed to normal. In fish, tilde
capitalizes the current letter and advances one word. There is no
current tilde command for visual mode in fish.
This patch adds the readline commands `togglecase-letter` and
`togglecase-selection` to match the behavior of vim more closely. The
only difference is that in visual mode, the cursor is not modified.
Modifying the cursor in visual mode would require either moving it in
`togglecase-selection`, which seems outside its scope or adding
something like a `move-to-selection-start` readline command.
The description for an alias which already has escape sequences will
use backslash escapes for quoting; usually `string escape` can simply
quote it. Use a regex that accepts either escaping style.
Fixes#6798
This re-adds some false positives: functions, builtins and abbreviations
are suggested after commands like sudo but I don't think anyone had
complained about that.
Many people have mentioned wanting support for changing / yanking /
deleting between "" and '', meaning the commands `ci' ci" yi' yi" di' di"`,
so this adds that support in a generic, and thus potentially confusing way.
The concept is that we check for the character backwards and forwards
before making the selection. Unfortunately, this will also work for *any*
character that isn't `w` or `W`, so `cia` could change everything between
two `a` characters.
Looking through the [bind documentation](https://fishshell.com/docs/current/cmds/bind.html)
and input handler at `src/input.cpp`,
this is the best possible solution I could come up with until
`forward-jump` and `backward-jump` can accept input in the call to `bind`,
and not just from stdin, meaning we can write a binding as:
```
bind di\" backward-jump-till \" and repeat-jump-reverse ...`
```
If that were done, then other commands such as `di)` to go between `()` would
be possible.
There are also some added `y` bindings not part of #6648.
Let me know if you need anything else.

Naturally this does not work for many other editors/aliases,
but it's still nice that we can make it work for some common
editors without requiring any configuration.
Of course this approach is not terribly flexible; but it's
alwyas possible to just wrap edit_command_buffer and set an
EDITOR that knows about the cursor position. It doesn't
feel important enough to add a configuration option.

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.
Same issue occurs here, as in #6270 (and fixed in 611a658 for `__fish_describe_command.fish`). Same reason. I've just copied the same workaround and changed the function name to match.
6902459566 was an attempt to not print
$status twice in the prompt. As a result we print $pipestatus but
not $status, which /usually/ is the same as $pipestatus[-1] --- unless
the builtin "not" is used, which inverts the $status of a job (it does
not alter $pipestatus).
As a result, the default prompt prints unexpected status codes:
~ > not false
~ [1]> not true
~ > not true | true
~ > not false | false
~ [1|1]>
This commit reintroduces printing of $status after $pipestatus, but only
if it is different from $pipestatus[-1].
Additionally, we only print anything at all if the $status is nonzero,
to avoid confusing output on `not false | false`
~ > not false
~ > not true
~ [0] 1> not true | true
~ [0|0] 1> not false | false
~ >
I think this is closer to users' expectations for those cases; they should
not have to think about this implementation detail of the not-statement.
At the moment the "prepend sudo" functionality always sets the cursor to
the end of the line. This changes it to restore the relative position of
the cursor.
It's now good enough to do so.
We don't allow grid-alignment:
```fish

complete -c foo -s z -a '(something)'

becomes
```fish

complete -c foo -s z -a '(something)'

It's just more trouble than it is worth.
The one part I'd change:
We align and/or'd parts of an if-condition with the in-block code:
```fish
if true
and false
dosomething
end
```
becomes
```fish

and false
dosomething
end
```
but it's not used terribly much and if we ever fix it we can just
reindent.
We just do a cheesy version check and hope it works out.
If this is fixed in 10.15.4, we have to reenable it. If it still isn't
fixed in 10.16, we need to adjust it.
