Using the FISH_HISTFILE variable will let people customise the session
to use for the history file. The resulting history file is:
`$XDG_DATA_HOME/fish/name_history`
Where `name` is the name of the session. The default value is `fish`
which results in the current history file.
If it's set to an empty string, the history will not be stored to a
file.

This is another step to resolving issue #1310. It makes
`fish_breakpoint_prompt` a replacement for `fish_prompt` if it is defined
and we're presenting a prompt in the context of a `breakpoint` command.
This does several things. It fixes `builtin_function()` so that errors it
emits are displayed. As part of doing that I've removed the unnecessary
`out_err` parameter to make the interface like every other builtin.
This also fixes a regression introduced by #4000 which was attempting to
fix a bug introduced by #3649.
Fixes#4139
The Haiku stdio library has a bug. If we set stdout to unbuffered and it
is attached to a tty it discards wide output. Given how we interact with
the tty it should be safe to replace the problematic `fputwc()` calls
with simple `write()` calls. This does depend on the rest of the fish
code that writes to the tty to ultimately call write() which is true at
this time and should remain true in the future.
Fixes#4100
The problem was overlooking a `break` statement when refactoring a
`switch` block into a simpler `if...else...` block. This fixes the
behavior of the `history-token-search-backward` function and its forward
searching analog.
Fixes#4065
There should be just one place that calls `setupterm()`. While refactoring
the code I also decided to not make initializing the curses subsystem a
fatal error. We now try two fallback terminal names ("ansi" and "dumb")
and if those can't be used we still end up with a usable shell.
Fixes#3850
I recently upgraded the software on my macOS server and was dismayed to
see that cppcheck reported a huge number of format string errors due to
mismatches between the format string and its arguments from calls to
`assert()`. It turns out they are due to the macOS header using `%lu`
for the line number which is obviously wrong since it is using the C
preprocessor `__LINE__` symbol which evaluates to a signed int.
I also noticed that the macOS implementation writes to stdout, rather
than stderr. It also uses `printf()` which can be a problem on some
platforms if the stream is already in wide mode which is the normal case
for fish.
So implement our own `assert()` implementation. This also eliminates
double-negative warnings that we get from some of our calls to
`assert()` on some platforms by oclint.
Also reimplement the `DIE()` macro in terms of our internal
implementation.
Rewrite `assert(0 && msg)` statements to `DIE(msg)` for clarity and to
eliminate oclint warnings about constant expressions.
Fixes#3276, albeit not in the fashion I originally envisioned.
If the kernel reports a size of zero for the rows or columns (i.e., what
`stty -a` reports) fall back to the `COLUMNS` and `LINES` variables. If
the resulting values are not reasonable fallback to using 80x24.
Fixes#3740
If the tty has been closed (i.e., become invalid) the `ttyname()`
function will return NULL. Passing that NULL to `strstr()` can crash
fish which means it won't kill its child processes and exit cleanly.
Another fix for #3644
A third-party plugin noticed that using `$CMD_DURATION` in the prompt
causes problems when combined with the recent changes to tighten up
parsing of strings meant to be integer values. This fixes the problem by
ensuring the var is defined before the first interactive command is run.

On some platforms, notably GNU libc, you cannot mix narrow and wide
stdio functions on a stream like stdout or stderr. Doing so will drop
the output of one or the other. This change makes all output to the
stderr stream consistently use the wide forms.
This change also converts some fprintf(stderr,...) calls to debug()
calls where appropriate.
Fixes#3692
Using `\e` is clearer and shorter than `\x1b`. It's also consistent with how
we write related control chars; e.g., we don't write `\x0a` we write '\n'.
There are several places that use writestr() which should instead be
using fwprintf() or equivalent. Also, clarify the documentation for why
writestr() and writechr() exist so they aren't used inappropriately
again.
Fixes#3657
Commit 8d27f81a to change how background jobs are handled (killed rather
than left running) when the shell is exited did not correctly handle
the nested interactive context created by the `breakpoint` command. This
fixes that mistake. Now any background jobs that already existed, or were
created within the `breakpoint` context, are left running when exiting
that context.
Fish is not consistent with other shells like bash and zsh when exiting
an interactive shell with background jobs. While it is true that fish
explicitly claims no compatibility with POSIX 1003.1 this is an area
where deviation from the established practice adds negative value.
The reason for the current behavior seems to be due to two users who did
not understand why interactive shells managed background jobs as they
did and were not aware of tools like `nohup` or `disown`. See issue
There is also a fairly significant bug present due to a misunderstanding of
what a true value from `reader_exit_forced()` means. This change corrects
that misunderstanding.
Fixes#3497
If an interactive shell has its tty invalidated attempts to write to
stdout or stderr can trigger this bug:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20632
Avoid that by reopening the stdio streams on /dev/null if we're getting
an ENOTTY error when trying to do things like give or take ownership of
the tty.
This includes some unrelated style cleanups but including them seems
reasonable.
Fixes#3644
After 'x' is used to delete a character at the end of a line the cursor
should be repositioned at the last character, i.e. repeatedly pressing
'x' in normal mode should delete the entire string.
