Notable improvements and fixes
|

------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
- Undo and redo support for the command-line editor and pager search (:issue:`1367`). By default, undo is bound to Control+Z, and redo to Alt+/.
|
||||
- builtins may now output before all data is read. For example, ``string replace`` no longer has to read all of stdin before it can begin to output.

- **Builtins can now output before all data is read**. For example, ``string replace`` no longer has to read all of stdin before it can begin to output.

This makes it usable also for pipes where the previous command hasn't finished yet, like::

|
||||
# Show all dmesg lines related to "usb"
|

dmesg -w | string match '*usb*'

|

- Prompts whose width exceeds $COLUMNS will now be truncated instead of replaced with ``"> "`` (:issue:`904`).

- fish is less aggressive about resetting terminal modes, such as flow control, after every command.
|
||||
Although flow control remains off by default, enterprising users can now enable it for external commands with

``stty`` (:issue:`2315`).

so it can be called again and again from config.fish or just once interactively, and the path will just be there, once.

This includes numbering the index from 1 instead of 0.

- The documentation (:issue:`6500`, :issue:`7371`) and Web-based configuration (:issue:`7523`) received a new theme, matching the design on fishshell.com.

- **``fish --no-execute`` will no longer complain about unknown commands**

or non-matching wildcards, as these could be defined differently at
|

runtime (especially for functions). This makes it usable as a static syntax checker (:issue:`977`).
|
||||
- ``string match --regex`` now integrates named PCRE2 capture groups with fish variables, allowing variables to be set directly from ``string match`` (:issue:`7459`). To support this functionality, ``string`` is now a reserved word and can no longer be wrapped in a function.
|
||||
- Globs and other expansions are limited to 512,288 results (:issue:`7226`). Because operating systems limit arguments to ARG_MAX, larger values are unlikely to work anyway, and this helps to avoid hangs.
|
||||
- fish will now always attempt to become process group leader in interactive mode (:issue:`7060`). This helps avoid hangs in certain circumstances, and allows tmux's current directory introspection to work (:issue:`5699`).
|

- A new ``fish for bash users`` documentation page gives a quick overview of the scripting differences between bash and fish (:issue:`2382`), and the completion tutorial has also been moved out into its own document (:issue:`6709`).

Syntax changes and new commands

-------------------------------
|

- Range limits in index range expansions like ``$x[$start..$end]`` may be omitted: ``$start`` and ``$end`` default to 1 and -1 (the last item) respectively (:issue:`6574`).

echo $var[1..]

echo $var[..-1]
|

echo $var[..]
|
||||

All print the full list ``$var``
|
||||
- When globbing, a segment which is exactly ``**`` may now match zero directories. For example ``**/foo`` may match ``foo`` in the current directory (:issue:`7222`).

- fish will now always attempt to become process group leader in interactive mode (:issue:`7060`). This helps avoid hangs in certain circumstances, and allows tmux's current directory introspection to work (:issue:`5699`).
|

- The interactive reader now allows ending a line in a logical operators (``&&`` and ``||``) instead of complaining about a missing command
|
||||
(This was already syntactically valid, but interactive sessions didn't know about it yet).
|
||||
- The prompt is reprinted after a background job exits (:issue:`1018`).
