After commit 6dd6a57c60, 3 remaining
builtins were affected by uint8_t overflow: `exit`, `return`, and
`functions --query`.
This commit:
- Moves the overflow check from `builtin_set_query` to `builtin_run`.
- Removes a conflicting int -> uint8_t conversion in `builtin_return`.
- Adds tests for the 3 remaining affected builtins.
- Simplifies the wording for the documentation for `set --query`.
- Does not change documentation for `functions --query`, because it does
not state the exit code in its API.
- Updates the CHANGELOG to reflect the change to all builtins.
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.
Every builtin or function shipped with fish supports flag -h or --help to
print a slightly condensed version of its manpage.
Some of those help messages are longer than a typical screen;
this commit pipes the help to a pager to make it easier to read.
As in other places in fish we assume that either $PAGER or "less" is a
valid pager and use that.
In three places (error messages for bg, break and continue) the help is
printed to stderr instead of stdout. To make sure the error message is
visible in the pager, we pass it to builtin_print_help, every call of which
needs to be updated.
Fixes#6227
Running the tests on travis revealed that some compilers (or at least
with some options) call the wrong struct constructor if there is more
than one struct with the same name but differing definitions.
