Fish completes parts of words split by the separators, so things like
`dd if=/dev/sd<TAB>` work.
This commit improves interactive completion if completion strings legitimately
contain '=' or ':'. Consider this example where completion will suggest
a🅰️1 and other files in the cwd in addition to a:1
touch a:1; complete -C'ls a:'
This behavior remains unchanged, but this commit allows to quote or escape
separators, so that e.g. `ls "a:<TAB>` and `ls a\:<TAB>` successfully complete
the filename.
This also makes the completion insert those escapes automatically unless
already quoted.
So `ls a<TAB>` will give `ls a\:1`.
Both changes match bash's behavior.
Instead of warning (debug level 1), we now emit an error (debug level 0) if a known bad version of
WSL is detected. However, `FISH_NO_WSL_CHECK` can now be defined to skip both the check and the
startup message.
fish is designed to append to the history file in most cases. However
save_internal_via_appending was never returning success, so we were
always doing the slow rewrite path. Correctly return success.
Fixes#6042
It appears Gcc 4.8 doesn't get this particular expression, so we just
revert to the old `type foo = bar` style from the new `type foo{bar}`.
Fixes#6027.
Meaning empty variables, command substitutions that don't print
anything.
A switch without an argument
```fish
switch
case ...
end
```
is still a syntax error, and more than one argument is still a runtime
error.
The none-argument matches either an empty-string `case ''` or a
catch-all `case '*'`.
Fixes#5677.
Fixes#4943.
Previously when propagating explicitly separated output, we would early-out
if the buffer was empty, where empty meant contains no characters. However
it may contain one or more empty strings, in which case we should propagate
those strings.
Remove this footgun "empty" function and handle this properly.
Fixes#5987
Prior to this fix, fish would attempt to react if a local fish_complete_path
or fish_function_path were set. However this has never been very well tested
and will become impossible with concurrent execution. Always use the global
values.
