A bunch of our variables are only relevant for interactive use, but
this is two whole sections on them. Simply move them inside "Syntax
highlighting" and leave the link in Special Variables.
* 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.
Document the last few changes and move some of the things out of
"Interactive" into more specific categories. If it's to do with
completions, it goes into completions. Bindings? How about "Bindings"?
Chrome says that's better, presumably because it can then tell how
large the image is before it's loaded. Not that this tiny image really
is a massive problem, but let's be good, not acceptable.
This made the current prompt appear directly under the tab,
disregarding the padding.
That means it looked inconsistent with the colors. (note there's still
less padding on the side, but at least that allows more actual content
- prompts are often fairly wide)
This has one slight behavioral change: Even with xsel, it now copies
to the clipboard, not the primary. I would imagine anyone who cares
about the primary selection has customized fish_clipboard_copy and
because we never got a bug about this not supporting anything but
xsel (and errorring out if it's not available!) this is probably
unused.
So now we support all the clipboard integration things, and we use the clipboard.
This change adds a binding that sets the s key's behaviour to match
the c key's in visual mode. This mirrors vim's behaviour (see `:h v_s`
in vim or neovim).
Apart from OpenBSD's "colorls" that is basically an ls that can do
color, there's also a ruby tool called "colorls" that's closer to exa.
Ignore that one since the options it understands are quite different
and I'm betting it's slower (given my experience with ruby tools).
See #8042.
* add support for colorized ls on openbsd
* add changelog line for colorls support
* add readme line for colorls support
* determine ls command at runtime, don't cache it
* eliminate __fish_ls_command function
The hope is that the noshebang test was fixed on old glibc
through e74b9d53df. Revert the previous optimistic attempts to
fix these through adding sleeps and subshells.
This reverts commit b3da0bd5a2.
This reverts commit 8a86d3452f.
This concerns the behavior of posix_spawn for shebangless scripts. At some
point, glibc started executing them using `sh`, which is desirable for
fish's shebangless support (see #7802). On glibcs without that behavior
the shebangless test fails. So this change disables posix_spawn on older
glibcs.
It's not easy to figure out when that happened but it definitely happens
in glibc 2.28, and does not happen in glibc 2.17. Presumably the new
behavior is present in glibc 2.24 (see BZ#23264) so that's the cutoff:
posix_spawn is no longer allowed on glibc < 2.24.
This fixes the noshebang test failures on Ubuntu Xenial and Centos 7.
See discussion at bottom of #8021.
This is an attempt to solve the test failures on Launchpad's CI.
I'm assuming when we do a redirection like
foo > file
and then try to execute `file` immediately afterwards, we either
haven't written it soon enough or closed the file, so we get a "text
file busy" error.
So, when we do that in a new fish the file should be closed once it
quits.
See #8021.
This led to pydoctheme.css being included *twice*, which led to
everything it included being included twice, which was annoying in
firefox when playing with the styles.
I don't *think* it had any performance impact?
The file is called "config.fish", not "init.fish". We'll call it
"configuration" now.
"Initialization" might be slightly more precise, but in an irritating
way.
Also some wording improvements to the section. In particular we now
mention config.fish *early*, before the whole shebang.
Otherwise there's this weird *gap*, where the sections are narrow even
tho there's plenty of space?
So you have this screen layout:
```table
| sidebar | text |
| sidebar | narr |
| sidebar | ower |
| sidebar | than |
| sidebar | need |
| sidebar | ed |
```
For some gosh-forsaken reason.
When you try to execute a file directly after you've written to it,
you might, on some systems, get a "text file busy" error.
So we unfortunately have to sleep to avoid it.
See #8021 for where this was added,
537b3f6cb1 for the same problem.
