This is opt-in through a new feature flag "ampersand-nobg-in-token".
When this flag and "qmark-noglob" are enabled, this command no longer
needs quoting:
curl https://example.com/thing?foo=bar&duran=duran
Compared to the previous approach e1570a4 ("Let '&' only separate as
the first char of a word"), this has some advantages:
1. "&&" and "&>" are no longer affected. They are still special, even
if used between tokens without spaces, like "echo bar&>foo".
Maybe this is not really *better*, but it avoids risking to annoy
users by breaking the old variant.
2. "&" is still special if at the end of a token, like in "sleep 1&".
Word movement is not affected by the semantics change, so Alt-F and
friends still stop at every "&".
When the user presses control-C, fish marks a cancellation signal which
prevents fish script from running, allowing it to properly unwind.
Prior to this commit, the signal was cleared in the reader. However this
missed the case where a binding would set $fish_bind_mode which would
trigger event handlers: the event handlers would be skipped because of
the cancellation flag was still set. This is similar to #6937.
Let's clear the flag earlier, as soon as we it's set, in inputter_t.
Fixes#8125.
This introduces two functions to
- toggle a process prefix, used for adding "sudo"
- add a job suffix, used for adding "&| less"
Not sure if they are very useful; we'll see.
Closes#7905
Document the last few changes and move some of the things out of
"Interactive" into more specific categories. If it's to do with
completions, it goes into completions. Bindings? How about "Bindings"?
* add support for colorized ls on openbsd
* add changelog line for colorls support
* add readme line for colorls support
* determine ls command at runtime, don't cache it
* eliminate __fish_ls_command function
Now that `$last_pid` is never fish's pid, we no longer need to force
jobs to run in their own pgroup. Restore the job control behavior to
what it was prior, so that signals may be delivered properly in
non-interactive mode.
This reverts commit 3255999794
Prior to this change, a function with an on-job-exit event handler must be
added with the pgid of the job. But sometimes the pgid of the job is fish
itself (if job control is disabled) and the previous commit made last_pid
an actual pid from the job, instead of its pgroup.
Switch on-job-exit to accept any pid from the job (except fish itself).
This allows it to be used directly with $last_pid, except that it now
works if job control is off. This is implemented by "resolving" the pid to
the internal job id at the point the event handler is added.
Also switch to passing the last pid of the job, rather than its pgroup.
This aligns better with $last_pid.
When a job is placed in the background, fish will set the `$last_pid`
variable. Prior to this change, `$last_pid` was set to the process group
leader of the job. However this caussed problems when the job ran in
fish's process group, because then fish itself would be the process group
leader and commands like `wait` would not work.
Switch `$last_pid` to be the actual last pid of the pipeline. This brings
it in line with the `$!` variable from zsh and bash.
This is technically a breaking change, but it is unlikely to cause
problems, because `$last_pid` was already rather broken.
Fixes#5036Fixes#5832Fixes#7721
It is possible to run a function when a process exits via `function
--on-process-exit`, or when a job exits via `function --on-job-exits`.
Internally these were distinguished by the pid in the event: if it was
positive, then it was a process exit. If negative, it represents a pgid
and is a job exit. If zero, it fires for both jobs and processes, which is
pretty weird.
Switch to tracking these explicitly. Separate out the --on-process-exit
and --on-job-exit event types into separate types. Stop negating pgids as
well.
This switches builtin_wait from waiting on jobs in the active job list, to
waiting on the wait handles. The wait handles may be either derived from
the job list itself, or from saved wait handles from jobs that exited in
the background.
Fixes#7210
Prior to this fix, an escaped character like \x41 (hex for ascii A)
was interpreted the same was as A, so that $\x41 would be the same
as $A. Fix this by inserting an INTERNAL_SEPARATOR before these escapes,
so that we no longer treat it as part of the variable name.
This also affects brackets; don't treat echo $foo\1331\135 the same as
echo $foo[1].
Fixes#7969
In many cases we currently discard escaped newlines, since they
are often unnecessary (when used around &|;). Escaped newlines
are useful for structuring argument lists. Allow them for variable
assignments since they are similar.
Closes#7955
This refactors the behavior of string match with capture groups to
correctly handle multiple arguments. Now the variable capture applies to
the first match, as documented. Fixes#7938.
string match is documented as setting an unset variable if a capture group
is unmatched in an otherwise matched regex, and if the `--all` flag is not
provided. However prior to this fix, it instead set a variable containing
the empty string as a single value. Correct the implementation to match
the documentation.
Note that if the `--all` flag is provided we continue to set empty
strings, which is documented.
This correctly sets $status when a builtin succeeds but its output fails;
for example if the output is redirected to a file and that write fails.
Fixes#7857
When building the document with Sphinx, the following warning is displayed, so add end-string.
"../CHANGELOG.rst:29: WARNING: Inline literal start-string without end-string."
This fixes the following problem: if a command is entered while the
previous command is still executing, fish will see it all at once and
execute it before syntax highlighting as a chance to start. So the
command will appear wrong on the terminal. Fix this by detecting this
case and performing a fast no-io highlight.
An example of how to reproduce this:
run `sleep 3` and then type `echo foo` while the sleep is still running.
This cleans up some exit code processing. Previously a failed exec
would produce exit code 125 unconditionally, while a failed posix_spawn
would produce exit code 1 (!).
With this change, fish reports exit code 126 for not-executable, and 127
for file-not-found. This matches bash.
When regenerating documentation with Sphinx, there's a warning issued about CHANGELOG.rst:
```
../CHANGELOG.rst:33: WARNING: Document or section may not begin with a transition.
```
This is almost identical to the fix in commit 84a89f5195.
Consider
$ complete -c foo -a 'aab aaB' -f
$ foo A<TAB>
since 28d67c8 we would insert the common prefix AND show the pager.
Due to case-insensitive comparison, "b/B" was considered to be part
of the prefix. Since the prefix is added to each pager item [1]
we get wrong results. Fix this by removing the insensitive comparison
between completions - I don't think it was of much use anyway.
Commandline tokens are still matched case-insensitively, this is
just about completions.
Test this by running interactive fish inside tmux (pexpect's terminal
emulation not have enough capabilities). Also add tests for recent
interactive regressions #7526 and #7738.
Closes#3978
[1]: b38a23a would solve this differently by giving every pager item
its own prefix, but was reverted since it needs more fixes.
