This isn't super useful, and having a caveat in the docs that it might

1c1e643218 WIP path: Make extensions start at the "."
This includes the "." in what `path extension` prints.

This allows distinguishing between an empty extension (just `.`) and a

0ff25d581c Infer splitting on NULL if one appears in the first PATH_MAX bytes
This is theoretically sound, because a path can only be PATH_MAX - 1
bytes long, so at least the PATH_MAXest byte needs to be a NULL.

The one case this could break is when something has a NULL-output mode
but doesn't bother printing the NULL for only one path, and that path
contains a newline. So we leave --null-in there, to force it on.

f6fb347d98 Add "path" builtin
This adds a "path" builtin that can handle paths.

Implemented so far:

- "path filter PATHS", filters paths according to existence and optionally type and permissions
- "path base" and "path dir", run basename and dirname, respectively
- "path extension PATHS", prints the extension, if any
- "path strip-extension", prints the path without the extension
- "path normalize PATHS", normalizes paths - removing "/./" components
- and such.
- "path real", does realpath - i.e. normalizing *and* link resolution.

Some of these - base, dir, {strip-,}extension and normalize operate on the paths only as strings, so they handle nonexistent paths. filter and real ignore any nonexistent paths.

All output is split explicitly, so paths with newlines in them are
handled correctly. Alternatively, all subcommands have a "--null-input"/"-z" and "--null-output"/"-Z" option to handle null-terminated input and create null-terminated output. So

    find . -print0 | path base -z

prints the basename of all files in the current directory,
recursively.

With "-Z" it also prints it null-separated.

(if stdout is going to a command substitution, we probably want to
skip this)

All subcommands also have a "-q"/"--quiet" flag that tells them to skip output. They return true "when something happened". For match/filter that's when a file passed, for "base"/"dir"/"extension"/"strip-extension" that's when something about the path *changed*.

Filtering
---------

`filter` supports all the file*types* `test` has - "dir", "file", "link", "block"..., as well as the permissions - "read", "write", "exec" and things like "suid".

It is missing the tty check and the check for the file being non-empty. The former is best done via `isatty`, the latter I don't think I've ever seen used.

There currently is no way to only get "real" files, i.e. ignore links pointing to files.

Examples
--------

> path real /bin///sh
/usr/bin/bash

> path extension foo.mp4
mp4

> path extension ~/.config
  (nothing, because ".config" isn't an extension.)

New -n flag for string join. (#8774)
* New -n flag for string join command.

This is an argument that excludes empty result items. Fixes #8351

* New documentation for string-join.

The new argument --no-empty was added at string-join manpage.

* New completions for the new -n flag for string join.

* Remove the documentation of the new -n flag of string join0

The reason to remove this new argument in the join0 is that this flag basically doesn't make any difference in the join0.

* Refactor the validation for the string join.

The string join command was using the length of the argument, this commit changes the validation to use the empty function.

* Revert #4b56ab452

The reason for the revert is thath the build broke on the ubuntu in the Github actions.

* Revert #e72e239a1

The reason the compilation on GitHub broke is that the test was weird, it didn't even run it, Common CI systems are typically very very resource-constrained.

* Resolve conflicts in the string-join.rst.

* Resolve conflicts in the "string-join.rst".

commit #1242d0fd7 not fixed all conflicts.

c0d1e41313 docs synopsis: add HTML highlighing and automate manpage markup
Recent synopsis changes move from literal code blocks to
[RST line blocks].  This does not translate well to HTML: it's not
rendered in monospace, so aligment is lost.  Additionally, we don't
get syntax highlighting in HTML, which adds differences to our code
samples which are highlighted.

We hard-wrap synopsis lines (like code blocks). To align continuation
lines in manpages we need [backslashes in weird places]. Combined with
the **, *, and `` markup, it's a bit hard to get the alignment right.

Fix these by moving synopsis sources back to code blocks and compute
HTML syntax highlighting and manpage markup with a custom Sphinx
extension.

The new Pygments lexer can tokenize a synopsis and assign the various
highlighting roles, which closely matches fish's syntax highlighing:
- command/keyword (dark blue)
- parameter (light blue)
- operator like and/or/not/&&/|| (cyan)
- grammar metacharacter (black)

For manpage output, we don't project the fish syntax highlighting
but follow the markup convention in GNU's man(1):

	bold text          type exactly as shown.
	italic text        replace with appropriate argument.

To make it easy to separate these two automatically, formalize that
(italic) placeholders must be uppercase; while all lowercase text is
interpreted literally (so rendered bold).
This makes manpages more consistent, see string-join(1) and and(1).

Implementation notes:
Since we want manpage formatting but Sphinx's Pygments highlighing
plugin does not support manpage output, add our custom "synopsis"
directive.  This directive parses differently when manpage output is
specified. This means that the HTML and manpage build processes must
not share a cache, because the parsed doctrees are cached.  Work around
this by using separate cache locations for build targets "sphinx-docs"
(which creates HTML) and "sphinx-manpages".  A better solution would
be to only override Sphinx's ManualPageBuilder but that would take a
bit more code (ideally we could override ManualPageWriter but Sphinx
4.3.2 doesn't really support that).

---

Alternative solution: stick with line blocks but use roles like
:command: or :option: (or custom ones). While this would make it
possible to produce HTML that is consistent with code blocks (by adding
a bit of CSS), the source would look uglier and is harder to maintain.
(Let's say we want to add custom formatting to the [|] metacharacters
in HTML.  This is much easier with the proposed patch.)

97db9d5c38 docs synopses: fix alignment of continuation lines
This corrects what looks like wrong alignment of some synopsis lines.
(I think the alignment is not a bad idea but it makes us do more
manual work, maybe we can automate that in future.  We still need to
figure out how to translate it to HTML.)

"man -l build/user_doc/man/man1/history.1" before:

	string match [-a | --all] [-e | --entire] [-i | --ignore-case]
	            [-r | --regex] [-n | --index] [-q | --quiet] [-v | --invert]
	            PATTERN [STRING…]

and after:

	string match [-a | --all] [-e | --entire] [-i | --ignore-case]
	             [-r | --regex] [-n | --index] [-q | --quiet] [-v | --invert]
	             PATTERN [STRING…]

Also make the lines align the same way in the RST source by carefully
choosing the position of the backslash. I'm not sure why we used
two backslashes per line. Use only one; this gives us no choice
of where to put it so both source and man page output are aligned.
Change tabs to spaces to make the alignment in the source work.

subjective, so I might drop it.

0781473564 argparse: Jump to the next option after an unknown one
Previously, when we got an unknown option with --ignore-unknown, we
would increment woptind but still try to read the same contents.

This means in e.g.

```
argparse -i h -- -ooo -h
```

The `-h` would also be skipped as an option, because after the first
`-o` getopt reads the other two `-o` and skips that many options.

This could be handled more extensively in wgetopt, but the simpler fix
is to just skip to the next argv entry once we have an unknown option
- there's nothing more we can do with it anyway!

Additionally, document this and clearly explain that we currently
don't transform the option.

0acbbfe2ca Document that a for-loop passes through any exit status
Unlike in other shells, for-loops do not set $status if
1. the loop count is zero, or if
2. the loop body consists of only commands like "set" that don't
   set $status.

POSIX for-loops always set an exit status (they set 0 if no loop
iterations). Following that would be awkward because it would add a
lot of complexity in combination with the 2 special cases above.

Document that "for" behaves the same as "set": it will pass through
existing $status, and also the last child's $status.

This fixes the indentation problem for the SYNOPSIS section by not

their own manpages for commands.

Use more semantic markup, like :command:, so that commands are
highlighted in the man pages.

Split by sentence to give `man` a chance to ascertain lines.

Long-term, it should be possible to teach Sphinx to turn :command:s
into references and get us automatic links to articles for matching
cmds/*.

commandline: Add --is-valid option (#8142)
* commandline: Add --is-valid option to query whether it's syntactically complete

This means querying when the commandline is in a state that it could
be executed. Because our `execute` bind function also inserts a
newline if it isn't.

One case that's not handled right now: `execute` also expands
abbreviations, those can technically make the commandline invalid
again.

Unfortunately we have no real way to *check* without doing the
replacement.

Also since abbreviations are only available in command position when
you _execute_ them the commandline will most likely be valid.

This is enough to make transient prompts work:

```fish
function reset-transient --on-event fish_postexec
    set -g TRANSIENT 0
end

function maybe_execute
    if commandline --is-valid
        set -g TRANSIENT 1
        commandline -f repaint
    else
        set -g TRANSIENT 0
    end
    commandline -f execute
end

bind \r maybe_execute
```

and then in `fish_prompt` react to $TRANSIENT being set to 1.

Add set --function (#8145)
* Add `set --function`

This makes the function's scope available, even inside of blocks. Outside of blocks it's the toplevel local scope.

This removes the need to declare variables locally before use, and will probably end up being the main way variables get set.

E.g.:

```fish
set -l thing
if condition
    set thing one
else
    set thing two
end
```

could be written as

```fish
if condition
    set -f thing one
else
    set -f thing two
end
```

Note: Many scripts shipped with fish use workarounds like `and`/`or`
instead of `if`, so it isn't easy to find good examples.

Also, if there isn't an else-branch in that above, just with

```fish
if condition
    set -f thing one
end
```

that means something different from setting it before! Now, if
`condition` isn't true, it would use a global (or universal) variable of
te same name!

Some more interesting parts:

Because it *is* a local scope, setting a variable `-f` and
`-l` in the toplevel of a function ends up the same:

```fish
function foo2
    set -l foo bar
    set -f foo baz # modifies the *same* variable!
end
```

but setting it locally inside a block creates a new local variable
that shadows the function-scoped variable:

```fish
function foo3
    set -f foo bar
    begin
        set -l foo banana
        # $foo is banana
    end
    # $foo is bar again
end
```

This is how local variables already work. "Local" is actually "block-scoped".

Also `set --show` will only show the closest local scope, so it won't
show a shadowed function-level variable. Again, this is how local
variables already work, and could be done as a separate change.

As a fun tidbit, functions with --no-scope-shadowing can now use this to set variables in the calling function. That's probably okay given that it's already an escape hatch (but to be clear: if it turns out to problematic I reserve the right to remove it).

Let "return" exit a script (#8148)
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.

string: Allow collect --allow-empty to avoid empty ellision (#8054)
* 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.

33f3c03dae Allow on-job-exit handlers to be added for any pid in the job
Prior to this change, a function with an on-job-exit event handler must be
added with the pgid of the job. But sometimes the pgid of the job is fish
itself (if job control is disabled) and the previous commit made last_pid
an actual pid from the job, instead of its pgroup.

Switch on-job-exit to accept any pid from the job (except fish itself).
This allows it to be used directly with $last_pid, except that it now
works if job control is off. This is implemented by "resolving" the pid to
the internal job id at the point the event handler is added.

Also switch to passing the last pid of the job, rather than its pgroup.
This aligns better with $last_pid.

It's a bit weird to *have* to fire up a browser to get fish_config to

- `fish_config prompt show` demos the available sample prompts
- `fish_config prompt choose` sources a prompt
- `fish_config prompt save` makes the choice permanent

A bare `fish_config` or `fish_config browse` opens the web UI.

After commit 6dd6a57c60, 3 remaining
builtins were affected by uint8_t overflow: `exit`, `return`, and

- Moves the overflow check from `builtin_set_query` to `builtin_run`.
- Removes a conflicting int -> uint8_t conversion in `builtin_return`.
- Adds tests for the 3 remaining affected builtins.
- Simplifies the wording for the documentation for `set --query`.
- Does not change documentation for `functions --query`, because it does
  not state the exit code in its API.

6dd6a57c60 Saturate return value in builtin_set_query
builtin_set_query returns the number of missing variables. Because the
return value passed to the shell is an 8-bit unsigned integer, if the
number of missing variables is a multiple of 256, it would overflow to 0.

6eeb8861e7 Add exit bind function
Currently binding `exit` to a key checks too late that it's exitted,
so it leaves the shell hanging around until the user does an execute
or similar.

As I understand it, the `exit` builtin is supposed to only exit the
current "thread" (once that actually becomes a thing), and the
bindings would probably run in a dedicated one, so the simplest
solution here is to just add an `exit` bind function.

Fixes #7604.

argparse: Make short flag names optional (#7585)
It was always a bit ridiculous that argparse required `X-longflag` if
that "X" short flag was never actually used anywhere.

Since the short letter is for getopt's benefit, we can hack around
this with our old friend: Unicode Private Use Areas.

We have a counter, starting at 0xE000 and going to 0xF8FF, that counts
up for all options that don't have a short flag and provides one. This
gives us up to 6400 long-only options.

6.4K should be enough for everybody.

0072367512 fish_add_path: Don't resolve symlinks
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.

340de73172 Call "fish_command_not_found" if a command wasn't found
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
```
