This harkens back to the days of fish's "we don't need no stinkin'
echo" minimalism. That's long past, we have a bunch useful builtins
now just because they are useful, not because they have to be builtins.

The person reading this is "you". It's completely okay and sounds
better to address them directly.
When we're talking about OS users or users of fish script the reader
writes, "the user" is still okay.

When pressing tab repeatedly, completions only computed on the first one. This
is because the old logic assumed that completions are present if the last
key was tab. Recompute them if there are no completions at all.
Fixes#6863
When pressing \ep on an empty commandline, the cursor would stay at the
beginning of the commandline. Move it to the end of the previous command,
this feels a bit more natural.
Since builtins don't actually have the streams connected, but instead
read input via the io_streams_t objects, this would just always say
what *fish's* fds were.
Instead, pass along some of the stream data to check those
specifically - nobody cares that `test`s fd 0 *technically* is stdin.
What they want to know is that, if they used another program in that
place, it would connect to the TTY.
This is pretty hacky - I abused static variables for this, but
since it's two bools and an int it's probably okay.
See #1228.
Fixes#4766.
(regression from d415350aaf)
This is important especially in e.g. the new Windows Terminal, because
for some reason that lets the tab stick around if the process exited
with a non-zero status.
Will add tests as soon as I figure out how.
This re-enables the test that eval retains pgroups, from #6806.
The old version was racey and failed a lot. In the new version, we use
temp files to resolve the race.
The case for symlinked directories being duplicated a lot isn't there,
but there *is* a usecase for adding the symlink rather than the
target, and that's homebrew.
E.g. homebrew installs ruby into /usr/local/Cellar/ruby/2.7.1_2/bin,
and links to it from /usr/local/opt/ruby/bin. If we add the target, we
would miss updates.
Having path entries that point to the same location isn't a big
problem - it's a path lookup, so it takes a teensy bit longer. The
canonicalization is mainly so paths don't end up duplicated via weird
spelling and so relative paths can be used.
Taken from GNU realpath, this one makes realpath not resolve symlinks.
It still makes paths absolute and handles duplicate and trailing
slashes.
(useful in fish_add_path)
With a commandline like
```
a b c d
```
and the cursor at the beginning, this would eat "a b", which isn't a
sensible bigword.
Bigword should be "a word, with optional leading whitespace".
This was caused by an overly zealous state-machine that always ate one
char and only *then* started eating leading whitespace.
Instead eat *a character*, and if it was whitespace go on eating
whitespace, and if it was a printable go straight to only eating
printables.
Fixes#7325.
This can easily lead to an infinite loop, if a variable handler
triggers a repaint and the variable is set in the prompt, e.g. some of
the git variables.
A simple way to reproduce:
function fish_mode_prompt
commandline -f repaint
end
Repainting executes the mode prompt, which triggers a repaint, which
triggers the mode prompt, ....
So we just set a flag and check it.
Fixes#7324.
Currently, completions have to be specified like
```fish
complete -c foo -l opt
```
while
```fish
complete foo -l opt
```
just complains about there being too many arguments.
That's kinda useless, so we just assume if there is one left-over
argument that it's meant to be the command.
Theoretically we could also use *all* the arguments as commands to
complete, but that seems unlikely to be what the user wants.
(I don't think multi-command completions really happen)
Currently only `complete` will list completions, and it will list all
of them.
That's a bit ridiculous, especially since `complete -c foo` just does nothing.
So just make `complete -c foo` list all the completions for `foo`.
Since version 5 (IIRC), pacman has a file database.
This is useful for people who don't have pkgfile, but we still prefer
that because it's much faster - pacman takes a full *second* on my system.
Found with gcc's -Wmissing-declarations which gives warnings like
../src/tinyexpr.cpp:61:5: warning: no previous declaration for ‘int get_arity(int)’ [-Wmissing-declarations]
61 | int get_arity(const int type) {
The same warnings show up for builtin functions like builtin_bg because they
currently don't include their own headers. I left that.
Also reformat the touched files.
So we can do something on every edit, for example repaint the pager (#7318).
This patch fixes pager refiltering and repainting when pressing Control+U
after typing something in the search field.
Implement this by moving the convenience functions from editable_line_t to
the reader, so we have fewer places where we need to refilter. Essentially we
only have two cases: insertions at the cursor are handled by insert_string(),
and all others go through push_edit(). This should also make it clearer
where we update undo_history.may_coalesce.
This commit was on the history-search-edit-needle branch, so it should
work fine. I hope it does play well with some recent changes.
In 6d339df61 (Factor repainting decions from readline commands better
in the reader), insert_string() was simplified a lot, mirror that.
The tests for editable_line_t are not that useful anymore since the caller has
to decide whether to coalesce insertions, but I guess they don't hurt either.
We should have more tests for some interactive scenarios like undo and the
pager filtering.
This was broken in 6d339df612, when we removed
the normal repainting logic.
The pager *search* however needs to trigger a refilter, and therefore
needs to trigger after every insert/removal.
Fixes#7318
This avoids the heavy hit of __gconv_transform_utf8_internal.
In the worst case, after `is_ascii` returns the string is guaranteed to
be in the CPU cache (assuming realistic input sizes). In the best (and
hopefully extremely common) case, the conversion table lookups are
completely avoided.
In terms of real world gains, simply calling `history` is anywhere from
2x to 3x faster for large history files composed of mostly ascii
content under glibc 2.31 on AMD64.
