\subsection emit-description Description
`emit` emits, or fires, an event. Events are delivered to, or caught by, special functions called event handlers. The arguments are passed to the event handlers as function arguments.
\subsection emit-example Example
The following code first defines an event handler for the generic event named 'test_event', and then emits an event of that type.
\fish
function event_test --on-event test_event
2012-12-20 00:11:55 +00:00
echo event test: $argv
end
2012-12-20 00:11:55 +00:00
emit test_event something
\endfish
