This basically disables syntax highlighting. That doesn't mean we use
absolutely no colors - the search match, suggestion, selection and the
pager have coloring, but only reverse or brblack.
The idea is that this disables anything that tells you about
the *syntax*, but it still tells you about the state of the
commandline. If we didn't highlight the selection it would be entirely
invisible, and if we didn't highlight the suggestion you would have no
idea where it begins.
So this basically brings colors on-par with bash, where the search
match is colored (in reverse) and suggestions aren't a thing.
An alternative is to add a $fish_highlighting_enabled variable like
the one for suggestions. That's still possible, but would require some
internal changes to avoid coloring some things with $fish_color_normal
and other things with the normal terminal color.
One thing this also does not do is set the git prompt colors. These
are currently disallowed from being set in theme files because they
start with `__fish` instead of just `fish`. We should probably rename
them.
This program uses the Cobra framework for argument parsing and completion generation.
Just source the completions supplied by upstream.
This works around "go install" not being able to install completions files (only binaries).
Usually local branches have remote branches with the same name, and in
completion they are currently overshadowed by unique remote branches, making
local branches hard to find. Define local branch completion after unique
remote branch completion to show local branches before unique remote branches.
If $xdg_chache_home is empty, this is not a valid fish expression:
[ \( -z \) -o \( ! -d \) ]
and results into an error.
While at it, also use $XDG_CACHE_HOME if that directory does not exist.
This seems better than falling back to $HOME/.cache, which the user has
explicitly overridden via $XDG_CACHE_HOME.
In 'simple terminal' the delete key prints \e[P by default, which is
related to the different approach the authors of st are taking on the
matter of shell configuration. The main problem is the malfunction of
the delete key, so we have to use a workaround like this.
Suggest files to "man -l", but only if the "-l" option is supported
(so not on BSD). Technically we should accept multiple files but this
seems good enough.
Also suggest files when the token-at-cursor contains a slash, because
man will treat arguments as file paths if they contain a /.
git-status --porcelain prints status letter T when a file changed type
between either regular file, symlink or submodule. It can occur in
exactly the same cases as M (modified), so extend the fix for #8311
accordingly.
For submodules, our completions are probably not always correct,
hopefully those cases are rare.
This is weirdly undocumented (as of git 2.33.0), but `git status` prints a "T" state if
the file has its "T"ype changed, e.g. from a regular file to a symlink.
For our purposes that's just another kind of modification.
Fixes#8311.
* Hide whatis database building from the user
It's really an internal detail, but shows up in prompts that display how many
background jobs are running.
By disowning it keeps running but won't show up in `jobs` or get killed if the user
exits the shell.
* Update __fish_apropos.fish
The less -F / --quit-if-one-screen option is buggy before v530. To work
around this, pass --no-init less versions older than 530.
The --no-init option was previously passed; it was removed in d15a51897d
for mouse support. Unfortunately it looks like we can't have mouse
support and --quit-if-one-screen on macOS shipped less (version 487).
It's worth fixing this because otherwise history and help is just not
printed on stock macOS.
Relevant is https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/107315/less-quit-if-one-screen-without-no-initFixes#8157.
Commit c3374ffd0 ("Use read --tokenize instead of eval for $BROWSER &
$EDITOR") converted uses of "eval" for environment variables to use the
safer "read -at", which performs word splitting but no other expansion.
funced contained a leftover instance of "eval". Remove it in favor
of using the editor command that was already word-split.
This means that we don't accidentally evaluate the file name.
(Also "set -gx EDITOR=~/my-editor" won't work anymore because the ~
is not expanded anymore but no one has complained about that behavior
in edit_command_buffer.)
Fixes#8289
*Problem:*
edit_command_buffer uses `cat` to return the modified content.
If a person has an alias for `cat` to a different command such `bat`** the editing will not be useful anymore since bat decorates the text with frames, line counts, etc
*Solution*
Appending command to cat, fish will ignore the alias and execute the real command according to this https://fishshell.com/docs/current/cmds/command.html

* Fix ls.fish: add -l option to GNU ls
* Sort alphabetically and remove --lcontext and --scontext (what are these?) on shared and GNU part.
* Revert --lcontext and --scontext options.
This should add all the sections that aren't linked internally,
including "identifiers".
(also give up on the line breaking because it makes it annoying to do
automatically)
Fixes#8245.
This was semi-automated with
```fish
for file in $argv
set -l varname (string replace -r '.*/(.*).html' '$1' -- $file | string escape --style=var)pages
set -l sections (string replace -rf '.*class="headerlink" href="#([^"]*)".*' '$1' <$file)
echo set -l $varname $sections
end
```
(where $argv contains the path to faq, fish_for_bash_users,
interactive, language and tutorial.html)
Building help.fish at compile time would work, but only for users who
build the docs.
The same hack that is used for `pkg remove <foo>` is required here, too.
Due to the massive number of results, we use `head -n 250` to prevent
the completion from hanging or the shell from being overencumbered by
too many possibe completions. However, this would only generate matches
for any of the first 250 packages, rather than printing the first 250
packages that match.

As functions know where they are loaded from now, there is no point in

Ubuntu's fish package on WSL 1 has xsel as recommended dependency,
even though there is no X server available. This change makes us
use Windows' native clipboard even when xsel is installed.
We keep __fish_is_nth_token for compatibility and edit the

Using `complete -F -c git -n __fish_git_needs_subcommand -a $command -d

which is not a desired result. Morever without the `-F` flag file
completions work just as expected and is useless addition
This injected filenames into fish script, which could inject things
that looked like fish script.
E.g. create a file called `~/.config/fish/themes/"; rm -rf ~/*"`.
Note that the prompts are all shipped by us, but the themes can
technically be added by the user, and they might not be dilligent in
what filenames they allow.
`fish_config theme`:
- `list` to list all available themes (files in the two theme
directories - either the web_config/themes one or
~/.config/fish/themes!)
- `show` to show select (or all) themes right in the terminal - this
starts another fish that reads the theme file and prints the sample
text, manually colored
- `choose` to load a theme *now*, setting the variables globally
- `save` to load a theme and save the variables universally
- `dump` to write the current theme in .theme format (to stdout)
- `demo` to display the current theme
In the variable handler, we just go through the entire thing and keep
every element once.
If there's a duplicate, we set it again, which calls the handler
again.
This takes a bit of time, to be paid on each startup. On my system,
with 100 already deduplicated elements, that's about 4ms (compared to
~17ms for adding them to $PATH).
It's also semantically more complicated - now this variable
specifically is deduplicated? Do we just want "unique" variables that
can't have duplicates?
However: This entirely removes the pathological case of appending to
$fish_user_paths in config.fish (which should be an FAQ entry!), and the implementation is quite simple.
* Add initial completion for Angular CLI

These are simple
var val [val val]
files. Basically the bit in `set -g fish_color_escape 86c1b9` after
the `set -g `. Since we're not going to `source` them, however,
arbitrary code and expansions are unsupported.
Also comments and such don't currently work.
This allows them to be easily readable both from webconfig (next
commit) and the shell (later).
This used to pass each color in a separate url-encoded request, which is
just wasteful.
Also it passed separate parameters for modifiers like bold and
underlined, but never gave them actual values. Instead the color is
passed as one string.
So we just use json, and then iterate over it server-side.
This introduces two functions to
- toggle a process prefix, used for adding "sudo"
- add a job suffix, used for adding "&| less"
Not sure if they are very useful; we'll see.
Closes#7905
I almost always use this on the last/only job in a commandline, so
the semicolon is usually not needed. We have always added it but I
prefer not dropping it: this feels cleaner because it's what you'd
type without the shortcut.
Similarly to b0e3cc4b5 (__fish_complete_suffix: Remove `eval`,
2019-12-28), this use of eval is unsafe and can spew errors if
invoked on an incomplete brace expansion.
Commit d15a51897 ("Rationalize $LESS uses") switched a "less" flag
from -r (interpret all control characters)
to -R (interpret only color codes)
Somehow this changed the output of "fish -c 'command -h'" to include
weird characters:
DESCRIPTION^O
command^O forces the shell to execute the program COMMANDNAME^O and ignore any functions or builtins with the same name.
Probably this was the reason why I originally used -r over -R. Anyway,
-R is safer and it looks like we can just remove the "ul" preprocessing
since "less" will interpret bold/underline just fine.
The `__fish_git_unique_remote_branches` function isn't applicable here
since `git describe` won't know what to do with a remote branch without
the remote prefix. For example, if there is a branch called
`origin/my-branch`, you can't execute `git describe my-branch` until the
branch is checked out locally. In other words:
Good: `git describe origin/my-branch`
Bad: `git describe my-branch`
Good: `git switch my-branch; git describe my-branch`
The completions for the `--example` option are generated using `find`.
The `find` utility on macOS will produce the following output when the
path argument has a trailing slash:
```
~/bat $ find ./examples/
./examples/
./examples//cat.rs
./examples//advanced.rs
./examples//simple.rs
./examples//list_syntaxes_and_themes.rs
./examples//yaml.rs
```
And will produce this output if the path does NOT have a trailing slash:
```
~/bat $ find ./examples
./examples
./examples/cat.rs
./examples/advanced.rs
./examples/simple.rs
./examples/list_syntaxes_and_themes.rs
./examples/yaml.rs
```
The extra slash after `examples` ends up in the completion suggestions
which is incorrect:
```
~/bat $ cargo run --example <TAB>
/advanced /cat /list_syntaxes_and_themes /simple /yaml
```
Unlike on my Linux box where `find` doesn't output the trailing slash:
```
~/bat $ cargo run --example <TAB>
advanced cat inputs list_syntaxes_and_themes simple yaml
```
Importantly, I get the same (correct) output on Linux even without the
trailing slash in the path argument to `find`.
This can give false positives but only if used on directories that
mix tracked and untracked files. The performance is better than
listing all tracked files, and in any case we're pretty far from a
correct solution that knows the target Git commit, so this seems like
good compromise.
The buttons were already supposed to highlight on hover, but the color
difference was barely visible. Crank that up.
Also add a hover color to the tabs, colorschemes, prompts, functions.
The big clickable things.
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
Stop using "--no-init"/"-X" because we have no actual reason to and it
may break mouse initialization on my best friend macOS.
Use --RAW-CONTROL-CHARS, the capital version that only lets through
specific escape sequences, not *everything* - we shouldn't have
anything weird here, but less heavily discourages the other version.
Allow a user's $LESS to override.
Fixes#7997.
In such cases, `pacmd help` prints
No PulseAudio daemon running, or not running as session daemon.
to stderr, which ends up printed to the user terminal.
This isn't really a "locale" variable as such. It has no effect on
encoding and stuff, it's just the output language.
What we really want here is get something better than the awkward "C"
or "POSIX" for LC_CTYPE specifically - everything else doesn't really
matter.
Recently Safari seems to hang with fish webconfig. This is apparently
because Safari is opening a socket and not writing to it, causing
webconfig to hang until the timeout (30 seconds). It's not clear why.
Use ThreadingMixIn so that FishConfigTCPServer can handle more
than one connection at a time. This fixes the hang under Safari.
From my checks (gnome-terminal with the "gnome light" colorscheme)
this seems to be the only color that's barely visible in a light
terminal, and it's the only color mentioned in both bug reports.
I'm leaving the artistic decisions to others, this is now *acceptable*
in both.
Note that, because we use universal variables here (hint #7317), this
will only be changed for preexisting installations when the user
reloads the colorscheme.
Fixes#3412Fixes#3893
It's a bit weird to *have* to fire up a browser to get fish_config to
choose a prompt.
So this adds a `prompt` subcommand to `fish_config`:
- `fish_config prompt list` shows all the available prompt names
- `fish_config prompt show` demos the available sample prompts
- `fish_config prompt choose` sources a prompt
- `fish_config prompt save` makes the choice permanent
A bare `fish_config` or `fish_config browse` opens the web UI.
Part of #3625.
TODO: This shows the right prompt on a new line. Showing it in-line is awkward
to do because we'd have to move it to the right.
Because MacOS' apropos is bad and doesn't support the `--` option
separator, this apparently spews errors.
Because the argument _can't_ start with a `-` (because we add a `^`),
we can just remove it.
Fixes#7965.
This prints a description of the "host". Currently that's
`(chroot:debianchroot) $USER@$hostname`
with the chroot part when needed.
This also switches the default and terlar prompts to use it, the other
prompts have slightly different coloring or logic here.
These were hard to read in the browser, but not in the terminal.
The palette in color.cpp lists #000080 for blue, which is *even darker*. I'm not sure if that's actually a thing - I was under the impression that table was taken from xterm.
Either way, listing it in this color doesn't do anyone any favors. It's just a rough approximation anyway.
Otherwise this has filesystem order, which on my system is quite
chaotic.
An alternative would be to randomize the order so people see different
prompts each time.
Some features:
- A nice `►` prompt char with a fallback for non-utf8 systems
- The $PWD is colored depending on its sha, so different directories
are colored differently, but each directory stays the same
- User@Host is only shown if not on the local machine (ssh or
virtualization)
- A right prompt with a nice git display, date, duration of the last
command (if it took over 100ms), and virtualenv
This gets fish to print the right prompt of any sample if it has any,
and then shows it separately.
If there is a right prompt, it will also save it. If not, it will *not* overwrite an existing right prompt.
This called `uname` just to check if we *should* shorten "cygdrive"
directories.
That's more annoying than just doing it by default - on my system `pwd
| string replace` takes about 100 *micro*seconds, and this is done
once per prompt. Anyway, using $PWD further speeds it up to ~30
microseconds (compared to 10-20 for just `pwd`). This is hard to
measure because it's heavily impacted by system hitter.
The alternative is to ask cygwin to ship this feature as a patch.
Complete RPM files instead of pacakges if there is either
1. a slash in the token, which precludes package names
2. no matching package
To enable 2, pass the commandline token to the dnf query, instead of
an undefined variable. This allows SQL injection; not sure if we care.
We could always complete RPM files but maybe that's too noisy.
Also, isn't that what the "rpm" command is for?
Closes#7928
Fixes#7926.
Also switches the default status order for non-informative to the informative one:
stagedstate invalidstate dirtystate untrackedfiles stashstate
instead of
dirty staged stash untracked
This should be a simple prompt that doesn't place a huge strain on the
system but communicates the most important information simply and
effectively.
It should be a good jumping off point for making your own prompt.
Unless that person directly contributed the prompt.
We name them after a feature - the Scales prompt feature a ">>>" which
kinda looks like fish scales, the "Arrow" prompt starts with a
prominent "➜".
Naming them after people looks like an endorsement of that particular
person, and like they are someone to look up to, especially when they
aren't involved with the project.
The "terlar" and "acidhub" prompts stay for now because they
contributed the prompt themselves, they are also much less prominent.
The "classic" prompts are all just variations on a theme, let's just
keep the default classic+vcs.
"Justadollar" is very unlikely to be what you want and also trivial to
write yourself.
I have no idea what screen_savvy even is for - it reacts to "$WINDOW",
but I don't know anything that even uses that variable.
Lonetwin is just unremarkable, and the debian chroot prompt has one special feature that should be integrated into the other prompts.
Because macOS' `apropos` is just using grep, and we only need
a prefix match for __fish_describe_command, we can shave off
some ok total execution time here.
No longer uses the __fish_apropos hack on every version of macOS.
Juat Catalina+.
The whatis database generated and replaced daily is 2 megabytes on
my computer, and in ~/.cache on a home dir might wind up on a net
mount or something annoying. or, definitely it's backed up by default.
It's wiser to throw that junk in with other cache files on the system
aka DARWIN_USER_CACHE_DIR, and only use the XDG directory if
someone specifically configured that.
Mainly, this just means at least it won't automatically get backed
up by Time Machine and stuff every day, which is no big deal but
y'know...
Rearranged stuff a little to not shell out every time.
The default vi mode prompt is kind of ugly, mostly because we include
this `[I]` with a super bright green background and white text,
which is particularly grating because most prompts don't actually have
a background.
So we get a ton of people asking "How do I remove this [I]" when they
could really benefit from having the mode shown.
There's a few ways to make this look nicer, the simplest is to just
keep the same colors but use them as foreground instead of background
colors, which looks much more understated.
The mode prompt is important, but not more than the actual contents of
the commandline, so it shouldn't have ALARMING colors.
This allows us to stop descending into untracked directories, which
can be faster.
It's still not *good* - git can still be quite slow here, but if
there's an untracked directory you probably don't care about the
number of files in that.
Fixes#7871.
This is all of the sections in interactive, language and for_bash_users.
The faq names are so long that we're not adding them, also not all of
these have descriptions yet.
Given that we no longer have that massive "index" page with
everything, it's become harder to open the correct section
immediately.
So this hardcodes the section titles for each page in help itself.
This was half-automated with
grep -o 'a class="headerlink" href="#[^"]*"' /usr/share/doc/fish/faq.html | sort -u | string replace -r '.*#' '' | string trim -c '"'
The completions still need to be adjusted.
In vim p means paste *after* current character, so go forward a char before pasting.
Also in vim, P means paste *at* current position (like at '|' with cursor = line),
so there's no need to go back a char, just paste it without moving.
Prior to this commit "builtin -h" would silently fail when no
documentation is installed. This happens when running fish without
installing it, or when the docs are not installed.
See #7824
After a fish installation is upgraded to 3.2.0, active shells could
throw an error attempting to load Git completions. It's just a
transient error but also easily avoidable by using the old style.
See #7822
Previously, this message told the user to "set $BROWSER and try again". However,
when I first saw this error, I didn't know how I can set `BROWSER` in fish. Moreover,
I often see this error in situations when no browser will work. For instance, I might be
using fish over ssh, and I might either not know whether that system has a text-mode
browser installed or not want to use it.
A further improvement would be to report this message if a browser fails to start.
This actually *worked* in my tests which confuses me.
It really shouldn't, `apropos -foo` will complain about "-o" not being
a valid option.
It should be `apropos -- -foo`.
Now, of course there are awful apropos implementations, so let's see
if someone complains
When `fish` is running in the Chrome OS Linux VM (Crostini),
both `help` and `fish_config` opened a "file not found"
page. That is because on Crostini, `BROWSER` is usually set to
`garcon-url-handler`, which opens URLs in the host OS Chrome
browser. That browser lacks access to the Linux file system.
This commit fixes these commands. `help` now opens the URL on
www.fishshell.com. `fish_config` now opens the URL for the
server it starts. Previously, it opened a local file that
redirects to the same URL.
In the case of `help`, the situation could be improved further
by starting a web server to serve help. I don't know of another
way to access `/share/fish` from outside the VM without user
intervention, and I think that might be a part of the security
model for the Crostini VM.
It's hard to write a test for this. I checked that `help math`,
`python2 webconfig.py`, and `python3 webconfig.py` work on my
machine running in Crostini.
This was a handler for various prompt variables that called a repaint.
Unfortunately, if you set one of those *inside* the prompt (a logical
place for it), this would lead to something like #7775.
So, because this isn't actually *useful* as far as I can see (how do
you set these variables in a way that you're not already inside a
prompt or about to draw a prompt? in a key binding?), we remove it,
like we removed the repaint from git's variable handlers.
This `set -e` had a cartesian product that caused it to remove the
indexes separately, so the later indexes were off - removing the first
and then the second ends up removing the first and then the
old-*third* which is now the second.
Just quote the expansion so it runs in one go.
Fixes#7776
Because we removed repaint coalescing, currently setting any of the
git prompt variables in fish_prompt leads to a repaint loop (that
presumably aborts once it reaches the recursion limit).
Since repainting on these variables isn't really useful (when you
`set` them interactively you already get a new prompt), just remove
it.
There's two cases this "breaks":
- When you set a variable *after* the call to fish_git_prompt
- When you set a variable via a binding
In both of these it's not too much to expect an explicit "commandline
-f repaint", especially since for bindings that's already needed in
most cases, and setting a variable after using it isn't normal.
Fixes#7775.
Called as
__fish_print_pipestatus "[foo" "oof]" "|" (set_color green) (set_color --bold blue) 0 1 2
it would make the closing `oof]` bold green.
Fixes#7771.
* Ensure web_config works on WSL
web_config could sometimes fail on WSL if the user chose not to append
windows directories to their linux $PATH. This change ensures that the
cmd.exe executable is found in most cases even if windows directories
are not appended to $PATH on linux.
An error message letting the user know that cmd.exe was not found, and
that they should add the cmd.exe dir to their $PATH before running
fish_config is displayed if cmd.exe is still not found.
* Exit with a non 0 status code if cmd.exe is not found
In this context, as it stands, $last_pid will give fish's pid (because
of pgroup shenanigans).
Since that doesn't really work, just `disown` without and let fish
figure out what the last process was.
Theoretically this has an issue if someone started a background
process *before* the python script *and* that exits before we run
disown.
That's a vanishingly small window and this is only run on first start,
so it seems acceptable.
Fixes#7739.
This still showed the background gradient, which is just a waste and
looks weird.
Instead make the actual content fullscreen (except for the border
radius, for now)
When pasting a multiline command with indented blocks, extra indentation
from spaces, or tabs, is generally undesirable, because fish already indents
pipes and blocks. Discard the indentation unless the cursor or the pasted
part is inside quotes.
Users who copied fish_clipboard_paste need to update it because
__fish_commandline_is_singlequoted had an API change and was renamed.
