Update docs for "brblack", "brwhite" existing.
We no longer mention colors like grey, brown and purple, which are aliases
for yellow, magenta, white/black. The color names still work but there
isn't a good argument for there being two ways to do that: especially in
the age of 24-bit terminals where one might expect yellow and brown or
magenta and purple to actually be different colors.
Copyedit rest of document for inaccuracies, strange advice, brevity (a lot
of "you" pronouns, for example.)
Document the color fallback feature (set_color 313554 blue) that's been
present quite a while.
Fish assumed that it could use tparm to emit escapes to set colors
as long as the color was under 16 or max_colors from terminfo was 256::
if (idx < 16 || term256_support_is_native()) {
// Use tparm to emit color escape
writembs(tparm(todo, idx);
If a terminal has max_colors = 8, here is what happenened, except
inside fish:
> env TERM=xterm tput setaf 7 | xxd
00000000: 1b5b 3337 6d .[37m
> env TERM=xterm tput setaf 9 | xxd
00000000: 1b5b 3338 6d .[39m
The first escape is good, that second escape is not valid.
Bright colors should start at \e[90m:
> env TERM=xterm-16color tput setaf 9 | xxd
00000000: 1b5b 3931 6d .[91m
This is what caused "white" not to work in #3176 in Terminal.app, and
obviously isn't good for real low-color terminals either.
So we replace the term256_support_is_native(), which just checked if
max_colors is 256 or not, with a function that takes an argument and
checks terminfo for that to see if tparm can handle it. We only use this
test, because otherwise, tparm should be expected to output garbage:
/// Returns true if we think tparm can handle outputting a color index
static bool term_supports_color_natively(unsigned int c) { return max_colors >= c; }
...
if (term_supports_color_natively(idx) {
And if terminfo can't do it, the "forced" escapes no longer use the fancy
format when handling colors under 16, as this is not going to be compatible with
low color terminals. The code before used:
else {
char buff[16] = "";
snprintf(buff, sizeof buff, "\x1b[%d;5;%dm", is_fg ? 38 : 48, idx);
I added an intermediate format for colors 0-15:
else {
// We are attempting to bypass the term here. Generate the ANSI escape sequence ourself.
char buff[16] = "";
if (idx < 16) {
snprintf(buff, sizeof buff, "\x1b[%dm", ((idx > 7) ? 82 : 30) + idx + !is_fg * 10);
} else {
snprintf(buff, sizeof buff, "\x1b[%d;5;%dm", is_fg ? 38 : 48, idx);
}
Restores harmony to white, brwhite, brblack, black color names.
We don't want "white" to refer to color color #16, but to the
standard color #8. #16 is "brwhite".
Move comments from output.h to output.cpp
Nuke the config.fish set_color hack for linux VTs.
Sync up our various incomplete color lists and fix all color values.
Colors 0-8 are assumed to be brights - e.g. red was FF0000. Perplexing!

Fixes#3176
This is a regression introduced by 834ebef53c
Bolster with a check for only login sessions too -- hopefully makes it
less annooying on subshells in general.
Fixes#3261
clang-format supports javascript and our 1 obj-c file. Also,
let it pick up a handful of missed files of types we already inteded it
to fix up.
Improve formatting and output.
Add some debug output like there is for 24bit mode.
I see now there is no need to setup terminal here - we get called early
sometimes for colors to work in config.fish to work but that is not so fatal.
Just check cur_term and trust get called again soon.
This fixes several problems with how the builtin `history` command handles
arguments. It now complains and refuses to do anything if the user specifies
incompatible actions (e.g., `--search` and `--clear`). It also fixes a
regression introduced by previous changes with regard to invocations that
don't explicitly specify `--search` or a search term.
Enhances the history man page to clarify the behavior of various options.
This change is already far larger than I like so unit tests will be added
in a separate commit.
Fixes#3224.
Note: This fixes only a couple problems with the interactive `history
--delete` command in the `history` function. The main problem will be
dealt with via issue #31.
We were effectively inferring 256 color support **only**.
If terminfo reports 256 max_colors for this $TERM but
that is not named xterm or does not contain "256color" in name,
term256_support_is_native()'s result did not affect the recorded
support.
Noticed with Terminal.app set to nsterm, and a newer ncurses
with good terminfo for the terminal on modern OS X:

* git completion: add mergetool
The list of tools is stole from the bash completion file that comes with
git.
* git completion: complete files with merget conflict for mergetool
We don't seem to mention in the documentation that we were forcing
-t for all interactive uses. If we want to do that we should apply
that in the builtin.
history.fish reimplementing every option and doing things kind of
differently is a real pain and it's not clear if the docs are
referring to the or the wrapper script or both.
Attempting to execute something like `exec "$test"` results in a fish internal
token (a Unicode private use char) being printed in the resulting error
message. That's obviously not desirable as well as confusing.
Fixes#3187
Prior to this fix, when performing completions, we would prepend
the wildcard to the resulting files. When doing fuzzy completions,
we would take some wildcard segment, attempt to locate it in the
final completion, and then replace it with our fuzzy-matched directory.
With this fix, we pass along the "resolved so far" path, and prepend
that instead of doing "surgery" on the completion. This simplifies the
logic.
Fixes#3185
GitHub apparently classifies `fish-shell` as a C project because we just
barely have more C than C++ due to vendoring pcre2. Update
.gitattributes for this. Also tell it about our documentation.

Problem with Type2ManParser
before:
complete -c xcode-select -s h -l help --description 'Prints the usage
message. UNINDENT NDENT 0. 0.'
after:
complete -c xcode-select -s h -l help --description 'Prints the
usage message.'
Don't truncate long lines with " [See Man Page]" suffix - use the
reclaimed 15 characters for more-useful usage info.
Improve the --verbose output with:
- spacing fixes
- diagnostics related to input print repr()/quoted as %r to be less
confusing.
- get rid of stupid name() and use type()/__class__.__name__,
- Always use new-style (new as in post python 2.2) classes so this
behaves the same whether we run in python 2 or 3.
- Properly convert left-quotes and right-quotes to that character in
deroff.py
