These are short flags for "--perm=read" and "--type=link" and such.
Not every type or permission has a shorthand - we don't want "-s" for
"suid". So just the big three each get one.
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.
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.)
With sphinx 4.5.0:
1. Some of our builtins actually give results (cd, end, set)
2. Some give broken results (and, if, or)
3. Only "for" even triggers the help page we hacked in
So this is of dubious use, and removing it gets us out of the awkward situation of shipping it.
Plus upstream sphinx has ditched jquery, so we would have to rewrite it anyway.
This can no longer be changed. If "no-stderr-nocaret" is in
$fish_features it will simply be ignored.
The "^" redirection that was deprecated in fish 3.0 is now gone for good.
Note: For testing reasons, it can still be set _internally_ by running
"feature_flags_t::set". We simply shouldn't do that.
Currently, when a variable like $fish_color_command is set but empty:
set -g fish_color_command
what happens is that highlight parses it and ends up with a "normal"
color.
Change it so instead it sees that the variable is empty and goes
on to check the fallback variable, e.g. fish_color_normal.
That makes it easier to make themes that override variables.
This means that older themes that expect an empty variable to be
"normal" need to be updated to set it to "normal".
Following from this, we could make writing .theme files easier by no
longer requiring them to list all variables with specific values.
Either the theme reader could be updated to implicitly set known color
variables to empty, or the themes could feature empty values.
See #8787.
* 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.
* Implement fish_wcstod_underscores
* Add fish_wcstod_underscores unit tests
* Switch to using fish_wcstod_underscores in tinyexpr
* Add tests for math builtin underscore separator functionality
* Add documentation for underscore separators for math builtin
* Add a changelog entry for underscore numeric separators
Otherwise this does "justify", which in bad cases can spread the text
over the width of the whole line, leaving awkward space between words.
This looks something like
```
The main file is ~/.config/fish/config.fish
```
The current python docs theme also left-aligns.
If a code block includes a line starting with ">", we assume it shows
an interactive session, all lines starting with ">" are commands and
the rest is output.
Unfortunately, in something like:
```
> for val in $PATh
echo "entry: $val"
end
entry: /usr/bin
```
this won't highlight the dangling lines. We could also prefix them
with `>`, but that require us to parse them in blocks or the `end`
would be an error.
So, for now, simply don't give these as a prompt but as a script with
cheesy comments describing the output.
Includes harmonizing the display of options and arguments, standardising
terminology, using the envvar directive more broadly, adding help options to all
commands that support them, simplifying some language, and tidying up multiple
formatting issues.
string documentation is not changed.
