Notable improvements and fixes
------------------------------
- ``jobs`` now correctly reports CPU usage as a percentage, instead of as a number of clock ticks (:issue:`8919`).
- ``process-exit`` events now fire when the process exits even if the job has not yet exited, fixing a regression in 3.4.1 (:issue:`8914`).
- A new ``path`` builtin to filter and transform paths (:issue:`7658`, :issue:`8958`). For example, to list all the separate extensions used on files in /usr/share/man::
- Tab (or any ``complete`` key binding) now prefer to expand wildcards instead of invoking completions, if there is a wildcard in the path component under the cursor (:issue:`954`, :issue:`8593`).
- Scripts can now catch and handle SIGINT and SIGTERM, either via ``function --on-signal`` or with ``trap``. (:issue:`6649`).
- A new ``path`` builtin to filter and transform paths (:issue:`7658`, :issue:`8958`). For example, to list all the separate extensions used on files in /usr/share/man (after removing one extension, commonly a ".gz")::
path filter -f /usr/share/man/** | path change-extension '' | path extension | path sort -u
@ -81,27 +81,34 @@ Scripting improvements
- ``string join`` gained a new ``--no-empty`` flag to skip empty arguments (:issue:`8774`, :issue:`8351`).
- ``read`` now actually only triggers the ``fish_read`` event, not the ``fish_prompt`` event (:issue:`8797`). It was supposed to work this way since fish 3.2.0.
- The tty modes are no longer restored when non-interactive shells exit. This fixes wrong tty modes in pipelines with interactive commands. (:issue:`8705`).
- Scripts can now catch and handle SIGINT and SIGTERM, either via ``function --on-signal`` or with ``trap``. (:issue:`6649`).
- Some functions shipped with fish printed error messages to stdout, now they rightly go to stderr (:issue:`8855`).
- ``jobs`` now correctly reports CPU usage as a percentage, instead of as a number of clock ticks (:issue:`8919`).
- ``process-exit`` events now fire when the process exits even if the job has not yet exited, fixing a regression in 3.4.1 (:issue:`8914`).
Interactive improvements
------------------------
- Tab (or any ``complete`` key binding) now prefer to expand wildcards instead of invoking completions, if there is a wildcard in the path component under the cursor (:issue:`954`).
- Fish now reports a special error if a command wasn't found and there is a non-executable file by that name in $PATH (:issue:`8804`).
- ``less`` and other interactive commands would occasionally be stopped when run in a pipeline with fish functions; this has been fixed (:issue:`8699`).
- Case-changing autosuggestions generated mid-token now correctly append only the suffix, instead of duplicating the token (:issue:`8820`).
- ``ulimit`` learned a number of new options for the resource limits available on Linux, FreeBSD and NetBSD, and returns a specific warning if the limit specified is not available on the active operating system (:issue:`8823`).
- The ``vared`` command can now successfully edit variables named "tmp" or "prompt" (:issue:`8836`).
- ``ulimit`` learned a number of new options for the resource limits available on Linux, FreeBSD and NetBSD, and returns a specific warning if the limit specified is not available on the active operating system (:issue:`8823`, :issue:`8786`).
- The ``vared`` command can now successfully edit variables named "tmp" or "prompt" (:issue:`8836`, :issue:`8837`).
- ``time`` now emits an error if used after the first command in a pipeline (:issue:`8841`).
- ``fish_add_path`` now prints a message for skipped non-existent paths when using the ``-v`` flag (:issue:`8884`).
- Since fish 3.2.0, pressing :kbd:`Control-D` while a command is running would end up inserting a space into the next commandline, which has been fixed (:issue:`8871`).
- A bug that caused multi-line prompts to be moved down a line when switching between insert and normal mode has been fixed (:issue:`3481`).
- The web-based configuration system no longer strips too many quotes in the abbreviation display (:issue:`8917`, :issue:`8918`).
- Fish started with ``--no-config`` will now use the default keybindings (:issue:`8493`)
- When fish inherits a $USER value that doesn't correspond to the euid, it will now correct it in all cases instead of just when euid is 0 (:issue:`8879`, :issue:`8583`).
- Fish sets a new $EUID variable containing the fish's effective user id (:issue:`8866`).
- ``history search`` no longer interprets the search term as an option (:issue:`8853`)
- The status message when a job terminates should no longer be erased by a multiline prompt (:issue:`8817`)
New or improved bindings
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Keyboard shortcut :kbd:`Alt-S` (previously: toggle ``sudo`` prepended to current commandline contents) now supports ``doas`` on systems without ``sudo`` (:issue:`8942`).
- The :kbd:`Alt-S` binding will now insert ``doas`` instead of ``sudo`` if necessary (:issue:`8942`).
- The ``kill-whole-line`` special input function now kills the newline preceeding the last line. This makes ``dd`` in vi-mode clear the last line properly.
- Introduce the ``kill-inner-line`` special input function, which kills the line without any newlines, allowing ``cc`` in vi-mode to clear the line while preserving newlines (:issue:`8983`).
- The CSI u sequence for shift+space is now bound to the same thing as space (:issue:`8874`)

- ``complete`` can now be given multiple ``--condition`` options. They will be attempted in the order they were given, and only if all succeed will the completion be made available (as if they were connected with ``&&``). This helps with caching - fish's complete system stores the return value of each condition as long as the commandline doesn't change, so this can reduce the number of conditions that need to be evaluated (:issue:`8536`, :issue:`8967`)
