This makes it so we link to the very top of the document instead of a special anchor we manually include. So clicking e.g. :doc:`string <cmds/string>` will link you to cmds/string.html instead of cmds/string.html#cmd-string. I would love to have a way to say "this document from the root of the document path", but that doesn't appear to work, I tried `/cmds/string`. So we'll just have to use cmds/string in normal documents and plain `string` from other commands.

Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
``functions`` prints or erases functions.
|
|
|
|
The following options are available:
|
|
|
|
**-a** or **--all**
|
|
Lists all functions, even those whose name starts with an underscore.
|
|
|
|
**-c** or **--copy** *OLDNAME* *NEWNAME*
|
|
Creates a new function named *NEWNAME*, using the definition of the *OLDNAME* function.
|
|
|
|
**-d** or **--description** *DESCRIPTION*
|
|
Changes the description of this function.
|
|
|
|
**-e** or **--erase**
|
|
Causes the specified functions to be erased. This also means that it is prevented from autoloading in the current session. Use :doc:`funcsave <funcsave>` to remove the saved copy.
|
|
|
|
**-D** or **--details**
|
|
Reports the path name where the specified function is defined or could be autoloaded, ``stdin`` if the function was defined interactively or on the command line or by reading standard input, **-** if the function was created via :doc:`source <source>`, and ``n/a`` if the function isn't available. (Functions created via :doc:`alias <alias>` will return **-**, because ``alias`` uses ``source`` internally.) If the **--verbose** option is also specified then five lines are written:
|
|
|
|
- the pathname as already described,
|
|
- ``autoloaded``, ``not-autoloaded`` or ``n/a``,
|
|
- the line number within the file or zero if not applicable,
|
|
- ``scope-shadowing`` if the function shadows the vars in the calling function (the normal case if it wasn't defined with **--no-scope-shadowing**), else ``no-scope-shadowing``, or ``n/a`` if the function isn't defined,
|
|
- the function description minimally escaped so it is a single line, or ``n/a`` if the function isn't defined or has no description.
|
|
|
|
You should not assume that only five lines will be written since we may add additional information to the output in the future.
|
|
|
|
**--no-details**
|
|
Turns off function path reporting, so just the definition will be printed.
|
|
|
|
**-n** or **--names**
|
|
Lists the names of all defined functions.
|
|
|
|
**-q** or **--query**
|
|
Tests if the specified functions exist.
|
|
|
|
**-v** or **--verbose**
|
|
Make some output more verbose.
|
|
|
|
**-H** or **--handlers**
|
|
Show all event handlers.
|
|
|
|
**-t** or **--handlers-type** *TYPE*
|
|
Show all event handlers matching the given *TYPE*.
|
|
|
|
**-h** or **--help**
|
|
Displays help about using this command.
|
|
|
|
The default behavior of ``functions``, when called with no arguments, is to print the names of all defined functions. Unless the ``-a`` option is given, no functions starting with underscores are included in the output.
|
|
|
|
If any non-option parameters are given, the definition of the specified functions are printed.
|
|
|
|
Copying a function using ``-c`` copies only the body of the function, and does not attach any event notifications from the original function.
|
|
|
|
Only one function's description can be changed in a single invocation of ``functions -d``.
|
|
|
|
The exit status of ``functions`` is the number of functions specified in the argument list that do not exist, which can be used in concert with the ``-q`` option.

Examples
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
functions -n
|
|
# Displays a list of currently-defined functions
|
|
|
|
functions -c foo bar
|
|
# Copies the 'foo' function to a new function called 'bar'
|
|
|
|
functions -e bar
|
|
# Erases the function ``bar``
