This merges a sequence of changes which eliminates the "parse tree"
construct and replaces it with a new abstract syntax tree implementation.
This is simpler and easier to understand/use.
This switches fish_indent from parsing with parse_tree
to the new ast.
This is the most difficult transition because the new ast retains less
lexical information than the old parse tree. The strategy is:
1. Use parse_util_compute_indents to compute indenting for each token.
2. Compute the "gap text" between the text of significant tokens. This
contains whitespace, comments, etc.
3. "Fix up" the gap text while leaving the significant tokens alone.
This switches parse_util_compute_indents from parsing with parse_tree to
the new ast.
It also reworks the parse_util_compute_indents tests, because
parse_util_compute_indents will be the backing for fish_indent.
This is the first commit of a series intended to replace the existing
"parse tree" machinery. It adds a new abstract syntax tree and uses a more
normal recursive descent parser.
Initially there are no users of the new ast. The following commits will
replace parse_tree -> ast for all usages.
Prior to this commit, fish used NUL ('\0') to disable control
functions (for example, the function that generates SIGTSTP).
However NUL may in fact be bindable and is on macOS via
control-space.
Use instead _POSIX_VDISABLE if defined and not -1.
This was always awkward as fish script, and had problems with
interrupting the autoloading.
Note that we still leave the old function intact to facilitate easier
upgrading for now.
Fixes#7145.
Page-Down seems to deactivate history search, so trying to undo
would leave the command line in an inconsistent state.
Fixes#7162 which was introduced in
12a9cb29 Fix assertion failure on page up / page down
It is used exclusively as vector at the moment since we only ever append
at the end. Making it a deque would be useful when allowing to edit the
search string and subsequently resume the search at an arbitrary position
in the history.
When editing a multiline command line and pressing "up" with the cursor at the
first line, fish attempts a hsitory search. If the search fails, don't move
the cursor to the end of the multiline command because this can be annoying
when the user does not actually want to perform a history search.
Current firefox-developer-edition (i.e. the beta) blocks here.
This is awful and bad, but we can easily work around it by just using
a thread.
