This means, if we repaint with a shorter prompt, we won't overwrite the longer parts.
This reintroduces #8002, but that's a much rarer usecase - having a prompt that fills the entire screen,
in certain terminals.
This reverts commit d3ceba107e88b6c6e1a0358ebcb30366aeef653f.
Fixes#8163.
This is opt-in through a new feature flag "ampersand-nobg-in-token".
When this flag and "qmark-noglob" are enabled, this command no longer
needs quoting:
curl https://example.com/thing?foo=bar&duran=duran
Compared to the previous approach e1570a4 ("Let '&' only separate as
the first char of a word"), this has some advantages:
1. "&&" and "&>" are no longer affected. They are still special, even
if used between tokens without spaces, like "echo bar&>foo".
Maybe this is not really *better*, but it avoids risking to annoy
users by breaking the old variant.
2. "&" is still special if at the end of a token, like in "sleep 1&".
Word movement is not affected by the semantics change, so Alt-F and
friends still stop at every "&".
Currently, if a "return" is given outside of a function, we'd just
throw an error.
That always struck me as a bit weird, given that scripts can also
return a value.
So simply let "return" outside also exit the script, kinda like "exit"
does.
However, unlike "exit" it doesn't quit an interactive shell - it seems
weird to have "return" do that as well. It sets $status, so it can be
used to quickly set that, in case you want to test something.
Today the reader exposes its internals directly, e.g. to the commandline
builtin. This is of course not thread safe. For example in concurrent
execution, running `commandline` twice in separate threads would cause a
race and likely a crash.
Fix this by factoring all the commandline state into a new type
'commandline_state_t'. Make it a singleton (there is only one command
line
after all) and protect it with a lock.
No user visible change here.
No functional change here; this migrates the fix ensuring that history
items are available in the builtin interactive read command into the
reader itself, in preparation for removing reader_get_history().
62d8f7277 ("Revert "Avoid excessive polling of universal variable
file"") was not a complete revert, which seems to have caused the
problem reported in https://github.com/IlanCosman/tide/issues/171.
See #8088
This adds a hack to the parser. Given a command
echo "x$()y z"
we virtually insert double quotes before and after the command
substitution, so the command internally looks like
echo "x"$()"y z"
This hack allows to reuse the existing logic for handling (recursive)
command substitutions.
This makes the quoting syntax more complex; external highlighters
should consider adding this if possible.
The upside (more Bash compatibility) seems worth it.
Closes#159
When the user presses control-C, fish marks a cancellation signal which
prevents fish script from running, allowing it to properly unwind.
Prior to this commit, the signal was cleared in the reader. However this
missed the case where a binding would set $fish_bind_mode which would
trigger event handlers: the event handlers would be skipped because of
the cancellation flag was still set. This is similar to #6937.
Let's clear the flag earlier, as soon as we it's set, in inputter_t.
Fixes#8125.
* string: Allow `collect --no-empty` to avoid empty ellision
Currently we still have that issue where
test -n (thing | string collect)
can return true if `thing` doesn't print anything, because the
collected argument will still be removed.
So, what we do is allow `--no-empty` to be used, in which case we
print one empty argument.
This means
test -n (thing | string collect -n)
can now be safely used.
"no-empty" isn't the best name for this flag, but string's design
really incentivizes reusing names, and it's not *terrible*.
* Switch to `--allow-empty`
`--no-empty` does the exact opposite for `string split` and split0.
Since `-a`/`--allow-empty` already exists, use it.
This reverts commit b56b23007664525e13f7f7ec50a9a6adff0bdfd9.
which somehow made us miss repaints on uvar notifications.
The commit was a workaround for a polling bug which was later properly
fixed by 7c5b8b855 ("Use the uvar notifier pipe timestamp to avoid
excessive polling"), so it's no longer necessary.
Add a system test. If I had a better understanding of the bug I could
probably write a better test.
Fixes#8088
We used to warn about PATH and CDPATH that are not valid directories,
but only if they contain colons.
However, the warning was a false positive because we would split
those values by colons anyway. So there is nothing left we want to
warn about.
Fixes#8095
FISH_USE_POSIX_SPAWN is always defined, thanks to the line
#define FISH_USE_POSIX_SPAWN HAVE_SPAWN_H
So replace #ifdef with #if to fix compilation on platforms lacking
spawn.h. Also make the spawn.h inclusion condition consistent across
files.
The sort routine was using the address of the **function pointer**
`signal(int signal)` rather than the union payload of the same name.
Perhaps one of the two should be renamed.
Prior to this change, if you were to type `./fish_indent` it woul dbe
colored as valid, because the path
`$fish_functions_path/./fish_indent.fish` is a real file. However of
course this is not actually executed as a function. Teach
function_exists to return false for function names which are invalid.
This only accepted "--background=". Really what we need to do is do an
actual getopt, but that wants a null-terminated array and is tightly
coupled to set_color.
Fixes#8053.
* Try to set LC_CTYPE to something UTF-8 capable
When fish is started with LC_CTYPE=C (even just effectively, often via
LC_ALL=C!), it's basically broken. There's no way to handle non-ASCII
characters with a C locale unless we want to write our
locale-independent replacements for all of the system functions.
Since we're not going to do that, let's try to find *some locale* for
LC_CTYPE.
We already do that in __fish_setlocale, but that's
- a bit of a weird thing that reads unstandardized system
configuration files
- allows setting locale to C explicitly
So it's still easily possible to end up in a broken configuration.
Now, the issue with this is that there is (AFAICT) no portable way to
get a list of all allowed locales and C.UTF-8 is not standardized, so
we have no one locale to fall back on and are forced to try a few. The
list we have here is quite arbitrary, but it's a start.
Python does something similar and only tries C.UTF-8, C.utf8 and
"UTF-8".
Once C.UTF-8 is (hopefully) standardized, that will just start
working (tm).
Note that we do not *export* the fixed LC_CTYPE variable, so external
programs still have to deal with the C locale, but we have no real
business messing with the user's environment.
To turn it off: $fish_allow_singlebyte_locale, if set to something true (like "1"),
will re-run the locale initialization and skip the bit where we force
LC_CTYPE to be utf8-capable.
This is mainly used in our tests, but might also be useful if people
are trying to do something weird.
