\subsection bind-description Description
|
|
|
|
`bind` adds a binding for the specified key sequence to the
|
|
specified command.
|
|
|
|
SEQUENCE is the character sequence to bind to. These should be written as <a
|
|
href="index.html#escapes">fish escape sequences</a>. For example, because
|
|
pressing the Alt key and another character sends that character prefixed with
|
|
an escape character, Alt-based key bindings can be written using the `\e`
|
|
escape. For example, @key{Alt,w} can be written as `\ew`. The control
|
|
character can be written in much the same way using the `\c` escape, for
|
|
example @key{Control,X} (^X) can be written as `\cx`. Note
|
|
that Alt-based key bindings are case sensitive and Control-based key bindings
|
|
are not. This is a constraint of text-based terminals, not `fish`.
|
|
|
|
The default key binding can be set by specifying a `SEQUENCE` of the empty
|
|
string (that is, ```''``` ). It will be used whenever no other binding
|
|
matches. For most key bindings, it makes sense to use the `self-insert`
|
|
function (i.e. ```bind '' self-insert```) as the default keybinding. This
|
|
will insert any keystrokes not specifically bound to into the editor. Non-
|
|
printable characters are ignored by the editor, so this will not result in
|
|
control sequences being printable.
|
|
|
|
If the `-k` switch is used, the name of the key (such as 'down', 'up' or 'backspace')
|
|
is used instead of a sequence. The names used are the same as the
|
|
corresponding curses variables, but without the 'key_' prefix. (See
|
|
`terminfo(5)` for more information, or use `bind --key-names` for a list of all
|
|
available named keys.)
|
|
|
|
`COMMAND` can be any fish command, but it can also be one of a set of special
|
|
input functions. These include functions for moving the cursor, operating on
|
|
the kill-ring, performing tab completion, etc. Use `bind --function-names` for
|
|
a complete list of these input functions.
|
|
|
|
When `COMMAND` is a shellscript command, it is a good practice to put the actual
|
|
code into a <a href="#function">function</a> and simply bind to the function
|
|
name. This way it becomes significantly easier to test the function while
|
|
editing, and the result is usually more readable as well.
|
|
|
|
If such a script produces output, the script needs to finish by calling
|
|
`commandline -f repaint` in order to tell fish that a repaint is in order.
|
|
|
|
Key bindings are not saved between sessions by default. To save custom
|
|
keybindings, edit the `fish_user_key_bindings` function and insert the
|
|
appropriate `bind` statements.
|
|
|
|
The following parameters are available:
|
|
|
|
- `-k` or `--key` Specify a key name, such as 'left' or 'backspace' instead of a character sequence
|
|
- `-K` or `--key-names` Display a list of available key names
|
|
- `-f` or `--function-names` Display a list of available input functions
|
|
|
|
The following special input functions are available:
|
|
|
|
- `backward-char`, moves one character to the left
|
|
- `backward-delete-char`, deletes one character of input to the left of the cursor
|
|
- `backward-kill-line`, move everything from the beginning of the line to the cursor to the killring
|
|
- `backward-kill-word`, move the word to the left of the cursor to the killring
|
|
- `backward-word`, move one word to the left
|
|
- `beginning-of-history`, move to the beginning of the history
|
|
- `beginning-of-line`, move to the beginning of the line
|
|
- `capitalize-word`, make the current word begin with a capital letter
|
|
- `complete`, guess the remainder of the current token
|
|
- `delete-char`, delete one character to the right of the cursor
|
|
- `delete-line`, delete the entire line
|
|
- `downcase-word`, make the current word lowercase
|
|
- `dump-functions`, print a list of all key-bindings
|
|
- `end-of-history`, move to the end of the history
|
|
- `end-of-line`, move to the end of the line
|
|
- `explain`, print a description of possible problems with the current command
|
|
- `forward-char`, move one character to the right
|
|
- `forward-word`, move one word to the right
|
|
- `history-search-backward`, search the history for the previous match
|
|
- `history-search-forward`, search the history for the next match
|
|
- `kill-line`, move everything from the cursor to the end of the line to the killring
|
|
- `kill-whole-line`, move the line to the killring
|
|
- `kill-word`, move the next word to the killring
|
|
- `upcase-word`, make the current word uppercase
|
|
- `yank`, insert the latest entry of the killring into the buffer
|
|
- `yank-pop`, rotate to the previous entry of the killring

\subsection bind-example Examples
|
|
|
|
`bind \cd 'exit'` causes `fish` to exit when @key{Control,D} is pressed.
|
|
|
|
`bind -k ppage history-search-backward` performs a history search when the @key{Page Up} key is pressed.
