I believe this was selected to be artificially low for the sake
of it displaying well in prompts. But people should expect to get
the same output as can be gotten from `hostname`.
Fixes#5758
The code already allowed for variable width (multicell) *display* of the
newline omitted character, but there was no way to define it as being
more than one `wchar_t`.
This lets us use a string on console sessions (^J aka newline feed)
instead of an ambiguous character like `@` (used in some versions of
vim for ^M) or `~` (what we were using).
The system version of `wcwidth()` reflects the capabilities of the
system's own virtual terminal's view of the width of the character in
question, while fish's enhanced version (`widechar_wcwidth`) is much too
smart for most login terminals, which generally barely support anything
beyond ASCII text.
If, at startup, it is detected that we are running under a physical
console rather than within a terminal emulator running in a desktop
environment, take that as a hint to use the system-provided `wcwidth`.
The commit began passing the length of the wide string rather than the
length of the narrowed string after conversion via `wcstombs`. We *do*
have the actual length, but it's not (necessarily) the same as the
original value. We need to pass the result of `wcstombs` instead.
POSIX dictates here that incomplete conversions, like in
printf %d\n 15.2
or
printf %d 14g
are still printed along with any error.
This seems alright, as it allows users to silence stderr to accept incomplete conversions.
This commit implements it, but what's a bit weird is the ordering between stdout and stderr,
causing the error to be printed _after_, like
15
14
15.1: value not completely converted
14,2: value not completely converted
but that seems like a general issue with how we buffer the streams.
(I know that nonfatal_error is a copy of most of fatal_error - I tried
differently, and va_* is weird)
Fixes#5532.
Before this change, - was sorted with other punctuation before
A-Z. Now, it sorts above the rest of the characters.
This has a practical effect on completions, where when there are
both -s and --long with the same description, the short option
is now before the long option in the pager, which is what is now
selected when navigating `foo -<TAB>`. The long options can be
picked out with `foo --<TAB>`. Before, short options which
duplicated a long option literally could not be selected by
any means from the pager.
Fixes#5634
This tweaks wcsfilecmp such that certain punctuation characters will
come after A-Z.
A big win with `set <TAB>` - the __prefixed fish junk now comes
after the stuff users should care about.
This disables an extra round of escaping in the `string replace -r`
replacement string.
Currently, to add a backslash to an a or b (to "escape" it):
string replace -ra '([ab])' '\\\\\\\$1' a
7 backslashes!
This removes one of the layers, so now 3 or 4 works (each one escaped
for the single-quotes, so pcre receives two, which it reads as one literal):
string replace -ra '([ab])' '\\\\$1' a
This is backwards-incompatible as replacement strings will change
meaning, so we put it behind a feature flag.
The name is kinda crappy, though.
Fixes#5474.
As a simple replacement for `wc -l`.
This counts both lines on stdin _and_ arguments.
So if "file" has three lines, then `count a b c < file` will print 6.
And since it counts newlines, like wc, `echo -n foo | count` prints 0.
Mostly related to usage _(L"foo"), keeping in mind the _
macro does a wcstring().c_str() already.
And a smattering of other trivial micro-optimizations certain
to not help tangibly.
C++11 provides std::min/std::max which we're using all over,
obviating the need for our own templates for this.
util.h now only provides two things: get_time and wcsfilecmp.
This commit removes everything that includes it which doesn't
use either; most because they no longer need mini or maxi from
it but some others were #including it unnecessarily.
Hangul uses three codepoints to combine to one glyph. The first has a
width of 2 (like the final glyph), but the second and third were
assigned a width of 1, which seems to match EastAsianWidth.txt:
> 1160..11FF;N # Lo [160] HANGUL JUNGSEONG FILLER..HANGUL JONGSEONG SSANGNIEUN
Instead, we override that and treat the middle and end codepoint as combiners,
always, because there's no way to figure out what the terminal will
think and that's the way it's supposed to work.
If they stand by themselves or in another combination, they'll indeed
show up with a width of 1 so we'll get it wrong, but that's less
likely and not expressible with wcwidth().
Fixes#5729.
