This commit recognizes an existing pattern: many operations need some
combination of a set of variables, a way to detect cancellation, and
sometimes a parser. For example, tab completion needs a parser to execute
custom completions, the variable set, should cancel on SIGINT. Background
autosuggestions don't need a parser, but they do need the variables and
should cancel if the user types something new. Etc.
This introduces a new triple operation_context_t that wraps these concepts
up. This simplifies many method signatures and argument passing.
Previously, the block stack was a true stack. However in most cases, you
want to traverse the stack from the topmost frame down. This is awkward
to do with range-based for loops.
Switch it to pushing new blocks to the front of the block list.
This simplifies some traversals.
This adds support for `fish_trace`, a new variable intended to serve the
same purpose as `set -x` as in bash. Setting this variable to anything
non-empty causes execution to be traced. In the future we may give more
specific meaning to the value of the variable.
The user's prompt is not traced unless you run it explicitly. Events are
also not traced because it is noisy; however autoloading is.
Fixes#3427
Previously, tab-completion would move the cursor to the end of the current token, even
if no completion is inserted. This commit defers moving the cursor until we insert a completion.
Fixes#4124
Fish completes parts of words split by the separators, so things like
`dd if=/dev/sd<TAB>` work.
This commit improves interactive completion if completion strings legitimately
contain '=' or ':'. Consider this example where completion will suggest
a🅰️1 and other files in the cwd in addition to a:1
touch a:1; complete -C'ls a:'
This behavior remains unchanged, but this commit allows to quote or escape
separators, so that e.g. `ls "a:<TAB>` and `ls a\:<TAB>` successfully complete
the filename.
This also makes the completion insert those escapes automatically unless
already quoted.
So `ls a<TAB>` will give `ls a\:1`.
Both changes match bash's behavior.
This exitted if the cursor was at the end of the line as well (i.e. if
delete-char failed). That's a bit too eager.
Also documentation, which should have already been included.
We used to have a global notion of "is the shell interactive" but soon we
will want to have multiple independent execution threads, only some of
which may be interactive. Start tracking this data per-parser.
