This allows us to get the terminfo information without linking against curses.
That means we can get by without a bunch of awkward C-API trickery.
There is no global "cur_term" kept by a library for us that we need to invalidate.
Note that it still requires a "unhashed terminfo database", and I don't know how well it handles termcap.
I am not actually sure if there are systems that *can't* have terminfo, everything I looked at
has the ncurses terminfo available to install at least.
We still don't support tabs but as of the parent commit, there are no more
weird glitches, so it should be fine to recall those lines?
This reverts commit cc0e366037.
Inserting Tab or Backspace characters causes weird glitches. Sometimes it's
useful to paste tabs as part of a code block.
Render tabs as "␉" and so on for other ASCII control characters, see
https://unicode-table.com/en/blocks/control-pictures/. This fixes the
width-related glitches.
You can see it in action by inserting some control characters into the
command line:
set chars
for x in (seq 1 0x1F)
set -a chars (printf "%02x\\\\x%02x" $x $x)
end
eval set chars $chars
commandline -i "echo '" $chars
Fixes#6923Fixes#5274Closes#7295
We could extend this approach to display a fallback symbol for every unknown
nonprintable character, not just ASCII control characters.
In future we might want to support tab properly.
This reserved 64, which is *gigantic*.
Over all of share/**.fish, 75% of lists are empty, 99.97% are 16
elements or fewer.
Reducing this to 16 reduces memory usage for a gigantic example
script (git.fish pasted a bunch of times for a total of almost 100k
lines) by ~10% and speeds up "--no-execute" time by the same amount.
For smaller scripts it's less noticeable simply because parse time
matters less.
There are other options, like creating the vec ::with_capacity, or
using 8 instead of 16, or even letting the vec just grow
naturally (rust's vec currently grows from 0 to 4 and then doubles,
which isn't terrible for this use), but the point is that 64 is
wasteful and never comes out on top, always in the last two places
comparing a bunch of choices.
Commit e5b34d5cd (Suppress autosuggesting during backspacing like browsers do,
2012-02-06) disabled autosuggestion when backspacing. Autosuggestions are
re-enabled whenever we insert anything in the command line. Undo uses a
different code path to insert into the command line, which does not re-enable
autosuggestion.
Fix that.
Also re-enable autosuggestion when undo erases from the command line.
This seems like the simplest approach. It's not clear if there's a better
behavior; browsers don't agree on one in any case.
This is the last remnant of the old percent expansion.
It has the downsides of it, in that it is annoying to combine with
anything:
```fish
echo %self/foo
```
prints "%self/foo", not fish's pid.
We have introduced $fish_pid in 3.0, which is much easier to use -
just like a variable, because it is one.
If you need backwards-compatibility for < 3.0, you can use the
following shim:
```fish
set -q fish_pid
or set -g fish_pid %self
```
So we introduce a feature-flag called "remove-percent-self" to turn it
off.
"%self" will simply not be special, e.g. `echo %self` will print
"%self".
This stops you from doing e.g.
```fish
set pager command less
echo foo | $pager
```
Currently, it would run the command *builtin*, which can only do
`--search` and similar, and would most likely end up printing its own
help.
That means it very very likely won't work, and the code is misguided -
it is trying to defeat function resolution in a way that won't do what
the author wants it to.
The alternative would be to make the command *builtin* execute the
command, *but*
1. That would require rearchitecting and rewriting a bunch of it and
the parser
2. It would be a large footgun, in that `set EDITOR command foo` will
only ever work inside fish, but $EDITOR is also used outside.
I don't want to add a feature that we would immediately have to discourage.
Currently, if you enter `echo` and press up-arrow, it might select
e.g. `echo foo`.
You can then enter text, making it `echo foobar` and press up-arrow
again, but the search string is *still* `echo`.
Many *other* input functions will end history search, including e.g.
expand-abbr, so pressing space by default will already end it.
So this ends the history search once you input something.
Incidentally this allows suggestions to work in this case, so it
Fixes#10287
Note that autosuggestions have been disabled while history search is
active since a08450bcb6, I'm not sure
it's actually *needed*, so it would also be possible to enable it in
that case.
But since this is already awkward (history search is *active* but with
the old search string) and I'm not sure if e.g. suggestions during
history search would be too busy, let's do this first.
This reduces the test time by ~33% on my system (23s to 15s)
Given that it takes ~180-240s on Github Actions, if we get a reduction
like that we can save over a minute.
We only use this
1. if we have localeconv_l
2. to get the decimal point / thousands separator for numbers
So we can ignore all this and directly create a purely LC_NUMERIC locale.
This *was* more useful when we were in C++ and the printing functions
all relied on locale, but we only use this in printf and that only
extracts the number stuff.
Commit b768b9d3f (Use fuzzy subsequence completion for options names as well,
2024-01-27) allowed completing "oa" to "--foobar", which is a false positive,
especially because it hides other valid completions of non-option arguments.
Let's at least require a leading dash again before completing option names.
The lines of code I commented on in #10254 were meant to serve only as examples
of the changes I was requesting, not the only instances.
Also just use `Mode::from_bits_truncate()` instead of unsafe or unwrapping since
we know the modes are correct.
* Fix build on NetBSD
Notably:
1. A typo in `f_flag` vs `f_flags` - this was probably never tested
2. Some pointless name differences - `st_mtimensec` vs
`st_mtime_nsec`
3. The big one: This said that LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE() was -1 "everywhere".
Well, not on NetBSD.
* ifdef for macos
Version 2.1.0 introduced subsequence matching for completions but as the
changelog entry mentions, "This feature [...] is not yet implemented for
options (like ``--foobar``)". Add it. Seems like a strict improvement,
pretty much.
.unwrap() is in effect an assert(). If it is applied mistakenly, the
program crashes and there isn't a good error.
I would like it to be used as a last resort. In these cases there are
nicer ways to do it that handle a missing result properly.
Issue #10194 reports Cobra completions do
set -l args (commandline -opc)
eval $args[1] __complete $args[2..] (commandline -ct | string escape)
The intent behind "eval" is to expand variables and tildes in "$args".
Fair enough. Several of our own completions do the same, see the next commit.
The problem with "commandline -o" + "eval" is that the former already
removes quotes that are relevant for "eval". This becomes a problem if $args
contains quoted () or {}, for example this command will wrongly execute a
command substituion:
git --work-tree='(launch-missiles)' <TAB>
It is possible to escape the string the tokens before running eval, but
then there will be no expansion of variables etc. The problem is that
"commandline -o" only unescapes tokens so they end up in a weird state
somewhere in-between what the user typed and the expanded version.
Remove the need for "eval" by introducing "commandline -x" which expands
things like variables and braces. This enables custom completion scripts to
be aware of shell variables without eval, see the added test for completions
to "make -C $var/some/dir ".
This means that essentially all third party scripts should migrate from
"commandline -o" to "commandline -x". For example
set -l tokens
if commandline -x >/dev/null 2>&1
set tokens (commandline -xpc)
else
set tokens (commandline -opc)
end
Since this is mainly used for completions, the expansion skips command
substitutions. They are passed through as-is (instead of cancelling or
expanding to nothing) to make custom completion scripts work reasonably well
in the common case. Of course there are cases where we would want to expand
command substitutions here, so I'm not sure.
Move all qmark tests to `scoped_test()` sections with explicitly set feature
flags. We already test the default qmark behavior in the functionality tests.
It seems the logic for calculating the cursor position was not ported correctly,
because the correct place to insert it is at the cursor_pos regardless of
range.start, going by the parameters submitted to the function and the expected
result.
This allows running a fish built from `cargo build` *and* built via
cmake.
In future, we should make this an optional thing that's removed from
installed builds.
NCurses headers contain this conditional "#define cur_term":
print "#elif @cf_cv_enable_reentrant@"
print "NCURSES_WRAPPED_VAR(TERMINAL *, cur_term);"
print "#define cur_term NCURSES_PUBLIC_VAR(cur_term())"
print "#else"
OpenSUSE Tumbleweed uses this configuration option; For reentrancy, cur_term
is a function. If the NCurses autoconf variable @NCURSES_WRAP_PREFIX@
is not changed from its default, the function is called _nc_cur_term.
I'm not sure if we have a need to support non-default @NCURSES_WRAP_PREFIX@
but if we do there are various ways;
- search for the symbol with the cur_term suffix
- figure out the prefix based on the local curses installation,
for example by looking at the header files.
Fixes#10243
This is run in the current locale, without resetting to en_US.UTF-8
like our integration tests do.
So if you want to check for a specific message you need to check the
localized version.
This was previously limited to Linux predicated on the existence
of certain headers, but Rust just exposes those functions unconditionally. So
remove the check and just perform the mtime hack on Linux and Android.
Make sure to also look for the error part that occurs after the last format
specifier.
Still not great because it won't fail if there's unexpected output at the
beginning or end of the string.
Commit 5f849d0 changed control-C to print an inverted ^C and then a newline.
The original motivation was

> clears the line. For me the behaviour of bash is a bit better, because it

This sounds like a valid use case in some scenarios but I think that most
abandoned commands are noise. After all, the user erased them. Also, now that
we have undo that can be used to get back a limited set of canceled commands.
I believe the original motivation for existing behavior (in other shells) was
that TERM=dumb does not support erasing characters. Similarly, other shells
like to leave behind other artifacts, for example when using tab-completion
or in their interactive menus but we generally don't.
Control-C is the obvious way to quickly clear a multi-line commandline.
IPython does the same. For the other behavior we have Alt-# although that's
probably not very well-known.
Restore the old Control-C behavior of simply clearing the command line.
Our unused __fish_cancel_commandline still prints the ^C. For folks who
have explicitly bound ^C to that, it's probably better to keep the existing
behavior, so let's leave this one.
Previous attempt at #4713 fizzled.
Closes#10213
This function is a hotspot, but it has inefficient codegen:
1. For whatever reason, the chars() iterator of wstr is slower
than that of a slice. Use the slice.
2. Unnecessary overflow checks were preventing vectorization.
Switch to a more optimized implementation.
This improves aliases benchmark time by about 9%.
