af022728bd Document complete-and-search moving backwards in pager
This isn't _clean_, but making a real binding that moves backwards if
in pager and does something else if not is more work.

Another dev pointed out my previous attempt to resolve issue #3612 did
not do a good job of clarifying the matter. Hopefully this change is
better at explaining why autoloading is not applicable to aliases.

254762f30f Fix status code when bad command name is entered
This commit fixes a bug which causes that

   fish -c ')'; echo $status

("Illegal command name" error) returns 0. This is inconsistent with
e.g. when trying to run non-existent command:

   fish -c 'invalid-command'; echo $status

("Unknown command" error) which correctly returns 127.

A new status code,

    STATUS_ILLEGAL_CMD = 123

is introduced - which is returned whenever the 'Illegal command name *'
message is printed.

This commit also adds a test which checks if valid commands return 0,
while commands with illegal name return status code 123.

Fixes #3606.

9e922a6e02 make status saner vis-a-vis arg parsing
The `status` command currently silently allows incompatible flags (i.e.,
subcommands). Too, using flags to specify subcommands misleads the user
into thinking they can specify multiple subcommands.

We recently modified the `history` command to deprecate using flags for
subcommands. This change does the same for the `status` command.

f7f39b8c90 make fish's realpath compatible with GNU realpath
After implementing `builtin fish_realpath` it was noticed that it did
not behave like GNU `realpath` without options. Which is super annoying
since that was the whole point of implementing the command. Major
failure on my part since I wrote the unit tests to match the behavior of
the existing `wrealpath()` function that I simply exposed as a builtin
command. Rather than actually verifying it behaved in a manner
compatible with GNU realpath.

Also, while the decision to call the builtin `fish_realpath` seemed to
make sense at the time of the original commit further reflection has
shown that to be a silly, idiosyncratic, thing to have done. So rename
it to simply `realpath`.

e9b5505169 add a flag to limit history search results
This adds a flag to the `history search` command to limit the number of
matching entries to the first "n". The default is unlimited. This is
mostly useful in conjunction with aliases (i.e., functions) that are
intended to report the "n" most recent matching history entries without
piping the result through the user's pager.

76c73aa8ce alter history sub-command handling
This deprecates the use of long options for history sub-commands (e.g.,
`history --delete`) in favor of proper sub-commands (e.g., `history
delete`). It also eliminates the short options for those sub-commands.

Also change option processing to allow options anywhere on the command
line to match how the vast majority of fish builtins handle flags.

Replace --with-time with --show-time.

7ce042ccff Really allow for hybrid bindings
The previous solution would not erase the previous bindings if
fish_vi_key_bindings was called with a mode argument. So if the user
switched to vi with a different initial mode, they'd keep their previous
bindings also.

e89057b70c Make hybrid bindings easier to achieve
The vi-bindings function would unconditionally erase all bindings,
making it impossible to call it last. This would disable the
mode-indicator (and in future also the cursor).

Make it so any argument to fish_vi_key_bindings stops it from erasing
bindings.

It would also be possible to demand an argument to erase (or to erase as
a separate step). but the usual case seems to be _switching_ to a set of bindings.

644ea82c2f Update set_color documentation
Update docs for "brblack", "brwhite"  existing.

We no longer mention colors like grey, brown and purple, which are aliases

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.

of "you" pronouns, for example.)

b53f42970c correct handling of history args
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.

It's currently too easy for someone to bork their shell by doing something

is a builtin.

5df8fab463 replace <outp> command with \outp in docs
Doxygen has been warning that `<outp>` and `</outp>` are not valid XML/HTML commands since commit cb6d5d76 on 20016-04-04. That's primarily because there is at present no way to tell Doxygen to recognize new XML/HTML tags. The actual errors look like this:

```
.../string.doxygen:187: warning: Unsupported xml/html tag </outp> found
```

I hate build errors since they a) cause needless concern, and b) make it harder to notice when I've introduced a new error. So switch from XML/C## style markup to Doxygen style markup for the "outp" annotation.

484c1484c9 Customisable extra configuration, completion and function directories
- Add options to the autotools build to set the path for the "vendor"
   or "extra" configuration snippets, functions and completions
   directories.

 - Remove the vendor_completions directory from the Xcode build, as
   these are relocatable and compiling the paths in does not make sense.

This allows packaging tools like Homebrew and Nix to use a common
directory outside of the main prefix for third-party completions, and
to make these available for programmatic discovery through `pkg-config`.

cb6d5d76c8 update lexicon for latest docs
Closes #2699

Fixes issues with:
* 'string' function synopsis
* Redirection display issues
* Better file & path detection
* Rendering of % & @ chars in both html and man
* @ symbol in tutorial

Improves robustness by implementing an @EOL marker to prevent hold buffer dumping extra chars after the end of an expression.

Added new '{{' and '}}' meta-chars for when you want curly braces in a regexp that was previously tripping up the lexicon.

Improve man/html presentation consistency for
* string
* printf
* prompt_pwd
* type

Use cli-styling for 'practical' examples.

Add <bs> tag for presenting content with preceding backslash.

9d2b53450a limit size of cd history to 25 directories
The existing implementation grows the $dirprev array without bounds. Besides
causing what would appear to be a memory leak it also makes the nextd and
prevd commands more expensive than they need to be. It also makes it harder to
create a useful "menu" cd command.

In addition to implementing a reasonable limit on the size of the $dirprev
array I've reformatted the code using fish_indent.

Update the documentation to include mentions of the $dirprev and $dirnext
variables as well as the limit on how much directory history is kept.

This narrows the range of Unicode codepoints fish reserves for its own
use from U+E000 thru U+F8FE (6399 codepoints) to U+F600 thru U+F73F (320
codepoints). This is still not ideal since fish shouldn't be using any
Unicode private-use codepoints but it's a step in the right direction.

This allows "vendors" (i.e. third-party upstreams interested in
supporting fish) to add auto-loaded functions and eager-loaded
configuration "snippets", while still allowing both the user and the administrator to
fully override all of that.

This has been inspired by systemd's configuration hierarchy, and implements a similar scheme
whereby files with the same name in higher-ranking directories override files in lower-ranking ones.

62b76b26b4 Reinstate failglob behaviour for most commands
Expand globs to zero arguments (nullglob) only for set, for and count.

The warning about failing globs, and setting the accompanying $status,
now happens regardless of mode, interactive or not.

It is assumed that the above commands are the common cases where
nullglob behaviour is desirable.
More importantly, doing this with `set` is a real feature enabler,
since the resulting empty array can be passed on to any command.

The previous behaviour was actually all nullglob (since commit
cab115c8b9), but this was undocumented;
the failglob warning was still printed in interactive mode,
and the documentation was bragging about failglob behaviour.

This adds support for the ANSI x3.64 "bright" colors in the basic sixteen
color palette. This is especially useful when trying to use the base colors
as a background color. The "bright" variants tend to be more useful as
background colors compared to the non-bright variants.

This also fixes a bug in so far as palette number 7 is actually grey and
not white whereas palette number 15 is white. At least on the terminal
emulators on which I've tested this change (Ubuntu xterm & uxterm, Mac
OS X Terminal & iTerm2).

Using `>` will overwrite current config.fish.

--inherit-variable takes a variable name and snapshots its current
value. When the function is executed, it will have a local variable with
this value already defined. Printing the function source will include
synthesized `set -l` lines for the values.

This is primarily useful for functions that are created on the fly, such
as in `psub`.

0a3f220572 Rework mode handling of bind
Binds with the same sequence in multiple modes was not working right.
Fix up the implementation to propagate modes everywhere as necessary.
This means that `bind` will properly list distinct binds with the same
sequence, and `bind -e` will take mode into account properly as well.
Note that `bind -e seq` now assumes the bind is in the default bind
mode, whereas before it would erase the first binding with that sequence
regardless of mode.

`bind -e -a` still erases all binds in all modes, though `bind -M mode
-e -a` still only erases all binds in the selected mode.

<em> used to represent something else, but as far as I can tell, all

supported escapes uses <em> to indicate the letters that are a

f889ad0fda Don't use DejaVu Sans Condensed for documentation rendering.
This font, at least under Kubuntu 14.04 and Firefox I use is rather
ugly. Anti-aliasing is wrong, and the spaces between letters are
rather random. It makes reading the documentation headings and table
of contents harder than it needs to be.

Those issues don't happen with DejaVu Sans.
