cfc06203e7 Add new functions flag -V/--inherit-variable
--inherit-variable takes a variable name and snapshots its current
value. When the function is executed, it will have a local variable with
this value already defined. Printing the function source will include
synthesized `set -l` lines for the values.

This is primarily useful for functions that are created on the fly, such
as in `psub`.

d67800bbce Make false/true into builtins
Making `true` into a builtin is a significant optimization to `while
true` loops. As long as `true` is a builtin, we may as well make `false`
builtin as well (despite the fact that it's not typically executed in a
loop).

26051ea198 Add Meta+H as keybinding for man page.
Apparently, in zsh, Meta+H can be used to display the manpage for
the current command. This commit adds this zsh feature to fish shell.

The F1 keybinding is left, although it's now secondary according to
fish help, as some terminal emulators don't let the user press F1 key.

re: fish-shell/fish-shell@2726712e01

As this is rendering ok in Firefox, this version should pickup the best
fonts for most browser/os variants based on 'font-stretch' support.

`.fish_left_bar` should be condensed, the main body font shouldn't.

0a3f220572 Rework mode handling of bind
Binds with the same sequence in multiple modes was not working right.
Fix up the implementation to propagate modes everywhere as necessary.
This means that `bind` will properly list distinct binds with the same
sequence, and `bind -e` will take mode into account properly as well.
Note that `bind -e seq` now assumes the bind is in the default bind
mode, whereas before it would erase the first binding with that sequence
regardless of mode.

`bind -e -a` still erases all binds in all modes, though `bind -M mode
-e -a` still only erases all binds in the selected mode.

7a9e2d733a Stop overriding <em> in user documentation
<em> used to represent something else, but as far as I can tell, all
uses of <em> in the documentation today actually represent text that's
supposed to be visibly different. Notably, the documentation on
supported escapes uses <em> to indicate the letters that are a
placeholder for e.g. a hex digit, as opposed to being a literal
character.

8f8c4cdd17 Implement new read --null flag

f889ad0fda Don't use DejaVu Sans Condensed for documentation rendering.
This font, at least under Kubuntu 14.04 and Firefox I use is rather
ugly. Anti-aliasing is wrong, and the spaces between letters are
rather random. It makes reading the documentation headings and table
of contents harder than it needs to be.

Those issues don't happen with DejaVu Sans.

increased. I tested earlier versions and many little issues returned.

20899f2df9 doc: Document how IFS affects command substitution
IFS is used for more than just the read builtin. Setting it to the empty

this, but for now, document the current solution.

06400b83b1 Support for command wrapping ("aliases")
Add the --wraps option to 'complete' and 'function'. This allows a
command to (recursively) inherit the completions of a wrapped command.
Fixes #393.

When evaluating a completion, we inspect the entire "wrap chain" for a
command, i.e. we follow the sequence of wrapping until we either hit a
loop (which we silently ignore) or the end of the chain. We then
evaluate completions as if the wrapping command were substituted with
the wrapped command. Currently this only works for commands, i.e.
'complete --command gco --wraps git\ checkout' won't work (that would
seem to encroaching on abbreviations anyways). It might be useful to
show an error message for that case.

The commandline builtin reflects the commandline with the wrapped
command substituted in, so e.g. git completions (which inspect the
command line) will just work. This sort of command line munging is
also performed by 'complete -C' so it's not totally without precedent.

'alias will also now mark its generated function as wrapping the
'target.

973dd6ffbd read: Support arrays, character splitting
Enhance the `read` builtin to support creating an array with the --array
flag. With --array, only a single variable name is allowed and the
entire input is tokenized and placed into that variable as an array.

Also add custom behavior if IFS is empty or unset. In that event, split
the input on every character, instead of the previous behavior of doing
no splitting at all.

60808a4820 Enhance/fix isatty using command test.
Presently, `isatty` only works on a handful of keywords. Here it
  is rewritten to be able to take any path, device or fd number as
  an argument, and eliminates errors printed to stdout.
  Per discussion in #1228, using `builtin test -c` within a pipe to
  test special file descriptors is not viable, so this implementation
  specifcially uses `command test`. Additionally, a note has been
  added to the documentation of `test` regarding this potential
  aberration from the expected output of the test utility under the
  'Standards' section.
