When `manpath` prints a symlink to a directory, `/usr/libexec/makewhatis`
ignores the entire directory:
```
$ /usr/libexec/makewhatis -o /tmp/whatis \
(/usr/bin/manpath | string split :)
makewhatis: /Users/wiggles/.nix-profile/share/man: Not a directory
```
This means that the built-in `man` completions will not index any commands in
these directories.
If we pass the directories to `readlink -f` first, `makewhatis` correctly
indexes the `man` pages.
```
$ /usr/libexec/makewhatis -o /tmp/whatis \
(/usr/bin/manpath | string split : | xargs readlink -f)
```
We keep having to extend these with new terminals, and I can no longer
find a terminal that fails this.
Even emacs' ansi-term can now at least reliably ignore the sequence.
- the __fish_seen_any_argument function did not work
- the xxd_exclusive_args specification was not correct
- longer old-style options were missing
- technically short options are also old-style options in xxd
- some options were missing
- -q silenced warnings in apk 2.x but not in in 3.x, so redirect stderr
to /dev/null to avoid seeing warnings while completing (-q is still
passed to `apk search` as it strips package versions and releases)
- Drop `-q` from `apk info`, as on apk 3.x it prevents apk info from
outputting anything at all
I've tested these changes on both Chimera Linux (which uses apk 3.x)
and Alpine Linux (which is still using 2.x).
This except clause was too narrow, so it would fail here even on other
systems just because webbrowser.get() returned nothing usable
Now it will fail *later* with "could not locate runnable browser", but
at least it won't say anything about chromeos on non-chromeos systems.
The \e\e\[A style is bad but iTerm and putty (alt-left) use it.
The main motivation for this change is to improve fish_key_reader output.
Part of #10663
Both are plenty fast enough, but this way the output of fish_trace isn't
completely taken over by the loops (seems fair since fish_trace probably gets
used rather heavily for completions).
Preliminary work. Might be important to check version if options I added aren't widely available.
Changed some short options to old-style options since they can't be grouped and don't even need spaces before their arguments, such as `less -ooutputfile` which creates `outputfile`.
The -Dxcolor argument is commented out because its arguments follow complex rules I didn't look into in depth
