Fabian Homborg edc09c8419 Docs: Switch back to vanilla :ref: for commands that should be linked
Unfortunately, currently :program: doesn't link to the program's page.

So we use the old-school :ref: again where we should link, i.e. for
everything that's not the program the current page is about.

Fixes #8438

fish_indent - indenter and prettifier
=====================================
Synopsis
--------
**fish_indent** [*OPTIONS*] [*FILE*...]
Description
-----------
:program:`fish_indent` is used to indent a piece of fish code. :program:`fish_indent` reads commands from standard input or the given filenames and outputs them to standard output or a specified file (if ``-w`` is given).
The following options are available:
- ``-w`` or ``--write`` indents a specified file and immediately writes to that file.
- ``-i`` or ``--no-indent`` do not indent commands; only reformat to one job per line.
- ``-c`` or ``--check`` do not indent, only return 0 if the code is already indented as fish_indent would, the number of failed files otherwise. Also print the failed filenames if not reading from stdin.
- ``-v`` or ``--version`` displays the current fish version and then exits.
- ``--ansi`` colorizes the output using ANSI escape sequences, appropriate for the current $TERM, using the colors defined in the environment (such as ``$fish_color_command``).
- ``--html`` outputs HTML, which supports syntax highlighting if the appropriate CSS is defined. The CSS class names are the same as the variable names, such as ``fish_color_command``.
- ``-d`` or ``--debug=DEBUG_CATEGORIES`` enable debug output and specify a pattern for matching debug categories. See :ref:`Debugging <debugging-fish>` in :ref:`fish <cmd-fish>` (1) for details.
- ``-o`` or ``--debug-output=DEBUG_FILE`` specify a file path to receive the debug output, including categories and ``fish_trace``. The default is stderr.
- ``--dump-parse-tree`` dumps information about the parsed statements to stderr. This is likely to be of interest only to people working on the fish source code.
