It's not the case that macOS and old BC doesn't respect this environment
variable, just that they don't have special behavior when it's set to 0.
However, there is rather universal favorable behavior with a value of 2.
Output is of the form:
\
999999999999999999999999999999999...
with the second line being arbitrarily long. So just grab that line
instead of stitching with `string`.
This can yield a 25-30% speedup.
This commit adds a feature that after typing "git add" and pressing
"alt+h", the manpage for "git-add" instead of "git" would be displayed.
The new logic takes the first argument which doesn't start with a dash
and tries to display manpage for "command-argument"; it falls back to
"man command" it the first try doesn't succeed.
Fixes#3618.
* Only append paths if `MANPATH` is already set, to match behavior of macOS
`path_helper` utility.
* Use the same technique as is used above to set PATH from /etc/paths and
/etc/paths.d/*.
I noticed that universal variable tests were failing on Cygwin and
Dragonfly BSD. The failures were because we are attempting to verify the
correct behavior of mechanisms that are known to be broken on those
platforms. There are still uvar test failures on those platforms with
this change but they are due to actual problems rather than bugs in the
tests.
Fixes#3587
Trailing whitespace on a `\fish` command was causing this build failure:
/private/var/folders/T/fish_doc_build_3RT8yS/random.doxygen:44:
warning: found </pre> tag without matching <pre>
Using `\e` is clearer and shorter than `\x1b`. It's also consistent with how
we write related control chars; e.g., we don't write `\x0a` we write '\n'.
Update our implementation of the PROMPT_SP heuristic to match current
zsh behavior. This makes it behave better on terminals like ConEmu and
the native MS Windows console which automatically insert a newline when
writing to the last column of the line.
Fixes#789
There are several places that use writestr() which should instead be
using fwprintf() or equivalent. Also, clarify the documentation for why
writestr() and writechr() exist so they aren't used inappropriately
again.
Fixes#3657
- Support completing dynamic make targets.
- Support completing make targets when using -C/--directory.
- Support `-Cdir/path`, `-C dir/path`
- Support `--directory=dir/path`, `--directory dir/path`
This detects if the make command have the `-p` switch otherwise it
assumes it is BSD make and will run a different command to try to figure
out the available targets.
Commits 48aa92900 and 77d4d21ca each added two files with the same name
differing only in letter case. That causes problems on systems like
macOS and MS Windows. Remove the lowercase file names. Anyone needing
those completions can do (same for VBoxHeadless):
function vboxsdl --wraps VBoxSDL
VBoxSDL $argv
end
The previous implementation didn't take into account that a lexer could
have multiple names and gave `cpp, c++` instead of `cpp` and `c++` when
completing `pygmentize -l c`.
--authoritative and --unauthoritative 'complete' builtin switches have no effect anymore.
This commit removes usage of --unautoritative/-u in completions.
--authoritative and --unauthoritative 'complete' builtin switches have no effect anymore.
This commit removes usage of --autoritative/-A in completions.
The complete builtin had once -A / --authoritative and -u /
--unauthoritative switches which indicated whether all possibilities for
completion are specified and would cause an error if the completion was
authoritative and an unknown option was encountered.
This feature was functionally removed during one of the past parser
rewritings, but -A and -u still remained in parts of the code and
command completions, although having no effect.
This commit removes the leftovers and prints an warning whenever user
tries to run the complete command with -A / -u / --authoritative /
--unauthoritative switches.
Fixes#3640.
Commit 8d27f81a to change how background jobs are handled (killed rather
than left running) when the shell is exited did not correctly handle
the nested interactive context created by the `breakpoint` command. This
fixes that mistake. Now any background jobs that already existed, or were
created within the `breakpoint` context, are left running when exiting
that context.
Fish is not consistent with other shells like bash and zsh when exiting
an interactive shell with background jobs. While it is true that fish
explicitly claims no compatibility with POSIX 1003.1 this is an area
where deviation from the established practice adds negative value.
The reason for the current behavior seems to be due to two users who did
not understand why interactive shells managed background jobs as they
did and were not aware of tools like `nohup` or `disown`. See issue
There is also a fairly significant bug present due to a misunderstanding of
what a true value from `reader_exit_forced()` means. This change corrects
that misunderstanding.
Fixes#3497
The recent discussion around allowing the user to change various termios
(i.e., stty) settings reminded me that there are places in our code
where we assume the interrupt key is [ctrl-C]. That's a bad assumption.
Instead use the actual value reported to us by the kernel.
This also makes the fkr program friendlier by always reporting when a
signal was received, not just when run with -d2, and prompting the user
to press the INTR or EOF key a second time to exit.
The recent refactoring to separate default (emacs) from vi key bindings
overlooked adding `\cH` bindings to vi mode. This also fixes the
behavior of the [del] key bindings (\x7F).
Fixes#3653
If acquiring a lock on the history or uvar file takes more than 250 ms
disable locking of the file. On systems with broken remote file system
locking it can cause tens of seconds delay after running each command
which can make the shell borderline unusable.
This also changes history file locking to use flock() rather than
fcntl() to be consistent with uvar file locking. It also implements the
250 ms time limit before giving up on locking.
Fixes#685
