The pager's rendering_needs_update() function detects some but not all
scenarios where a rendering is stale. In particular, it does not compare
the completion strings.
To make this work, we manually invalidate the pager rendering whenever we
update completion strings. The history pager needs the same functionality,
so let's move it into the pager.
No functional change.
This addresses code review feedback to not couple the purely visual
concept of cursor style with the logical concept of the selection size.
Instead this now uses a dedicated variable
`$fish_select_char_after_cursor` to determine whether to extend the
selection beyond the cursor:
* fish_select_char_after_cursor = 1 or unset -> extend selection
* all other cases -> place the selection end that the cursor
This fixes the handling of the right end of the selection. Currently the
right end is considered to be at the cursor position + 1. When using a
`block` or `underline` cursor this is arguably correct, because the
cursor has a width of 1 and spans from the current position to the next:
```
x x [x x x̲] x
```
This is incorrect though (or at least very unintuitive), when using a
`line` cursor:
```
x x [x x|x] x
```
This commit changes the strategy for determining the end of the
selection in the following way:
* If the current cursor as determined by `$fish_cursor_<bind_mode>` is
set to `line`, then a cursor width of `0` is assumed.
* In all other cases, including `block` and `underscore` as well as when
no value is set we retain the previous behavior of assuming a cursor
width of `1`.
```
x x [x x x̲] x
x x [x x|]x x
```
This change should not affect many users, because the selection is
probably used most by vi-mode users, who are also likely to use a
block cursor.
ESCAPE_ALL is not really a helpful name. Also it's the most common flag.
Let's make it the default so we can remove this unhelpful name.
While at it, let's add a default value for the flags argument, which helps
most callers.
The absence of ESCAPE_ALL makes it only escape nonprintable characters
(with some exceptions). We use this for displaying strings in the completion
pager as well as for the human-readable output of "set", "set -S", "bind"
and "functions".
No functional change.
Almost all edits to our commandline are funneled through
reader_data_t::push_edit(). Notable exceptions are undo/redo (which move
across existing edits instead). Due to an oversight, undo/redo fail to
trigger commandline update hooks. Fix that.
Our behavior of triggering hooks only for the search field looks weird. I
reckon that the command line eventually catches up, but this means we trigger
some hooks redundantly. Once we figure that out we can remove the new function.
command_line_has_transient_edit tracks the actual command line, not the
pager search field. We accidentally reset it after modifying the search field
which causes unexpected behavior - the commandline added by the completion
pager remains even after I press Escape.
Previously, the search text is used to find out which part of the
updated command line should be highlighted during a history search. This
approach will cause the incorrect part to be highlighted when the line
contains multiple instances of the search text.
To address this, we have to find out exactly where to highlight, i.e.
the offset of the current token in the command line (0 if not a token
search) plus the offset of the search text in the match.
This concerns what happens if the user types e.g. `grep --i` and grep or
its completions have not yet been loaded. Previously we would "bounce to
the main thread" from within the autosuggestion thread to load grep's
completions. However under concurrent execution, this may deadlock as the
main thread is waiting for something else.
In the new implementation, complete simply records the commands that it
would autoload, and returns them back to the caller, where the caller can
decide how to handle them.
In general iothread_perform_on_main risks deadlock under concurrent
execution and we should try to get rid of it.
There should be no user-visible change from this fix.
The fix for #3481 caused us to save the screen status after external
commands were run, fixing an unnecessary abandon-line when switching
modes. But we may also run commands not directly as part of a binding,
but instead via an on-variable event, e.g. for fish_bind_mode.
Extend this fix to all bindings, guarded by changes to exec_count. Now
any time an external command runs as part of a binding we should pick up
changes to the tty and not abandon the line.
Fixes#3481 again.
This concerns running a key binding which invokes a command. If that
command modifies the tty, then fish will spot the modification later and
then react to it by redrawing the prompt. However tty modifications may
be benign or desirable; for example switching the cursor from a line to
a block. Fix this by re-fstating the tty after running external
commands.
Fixes#3481
Previously, `kill-whole-line` kills the line and its following
newline. This is insufficient when we are on the last line, because
it would not actually clear the line. The cursor would stay on the
line, which is not the correct behavior for bindings like `dd`.
Also, `cc` in vi-mode used `kill-whole-line`, which is not correct
because it should not remove any newlines. We have to introduce
another special input function (`kill-inner-line`) to fix this.
Hitting tab on "echo **" will often result in more than 256 matches.
Commit 143757e8c (Expand wildcards on tab, 2021-11-27) describes this scenario
> If the expansion would produce more than 256 items, we flash the command
> line and do nothing, since it would make the commandline overfull.
Yet we actually erase the "**" token, which seems wrong since we already
flash the command line. Fix this, at the cost of making the code a bit uglier.
I tried to write a test in tests/pexpects/wildcard_tab.py but that doesn't
seem to work because pexpect provides only a "dumb" terminal. I wonder if we
can test what we write to the screen without depending on a terminal emulator.
Prior to this change, if you tab-completed a token with a wildcard (glob), we
would invoke ordinary completions. Instead, expand the wildcard, replacing
the wildcard with the result of expansions. If the wildcard fails to expand,
flash the command line to signal an error and do not modify it.
Example:
> touch file(seq 4)
> echo file*<tab>
becomes:
> echo file1 file2 file3 file4
whereas before the tab would have just added a space.
Some things to note:
1. If the expansion would produce more than 256 items, we flash the command
line and do nothing, since it would make the commandline overfull.
2. The wildcard token can be brought back through Undo (ctrl-Z).
3. This only kicks in if the wildcard is in the "path component
containing the cursor." If the wildcard is in a previous component,
we continue using completions as normal.
Fixes#954.
fish reads the tty modes at startup, and tries to restore them to the
original values on exit, to be polite. However this causes problems when
fish is run in a pipeline with another process which also messes with the
tty modes. Example:
fish -c 'echo foo' | vim -
Here vim's manipulation of the tty would race with fish, and often vim
would end up with broken modes.
Only restore the tty if we are interactive. Fixes#8705.
A history search ends when you move the cursor, but the commandline inserted by
history search is still marked as transient. This means that the next history
search will clear the transient commandline. This means we are dropping an undo
point, for example:
echo 11
echo 1
echo autosuggestion
echo^P # commandline is "echo 1"
^A # stop history search
^P # commandline is "echo 11"
^Z # Bug: commandline goes back to "echo", but it should be "echo 1"
In the worst case, we are switching from line-search to token-search (see
the attached test case). Clearing the transient edit means the line is gone
and only the token is left on the command line.
fish outputs the result of fish_title inside an escape sequence, which
happens to be terminated by \a (BEL). It may happen that the initial
output is interrupted; fish then emits the closing BEL and that makes an
annoying beep. Output the fish_title all at once, even if a signal is
delivered (so we don't get "stuck inside" the sequence).
This is related to #8628 in that it's a "torn escape sequence."
`read` allows specifying the initial command line text. This was
text got accidentally ignored starting in a32248277f. Fix this
regression and add a test.
Fixes#8633
Cygwin tests are failing because cygwin has a low limit of only 64 fds in
select(). Extend select_wrapper_t to also support using poll(), according to
a FISH_USE_POLL new define. All systems now use poll() except for Mac.
Rename select_wrapper_t to fd_readable_set_t since now it may not wrap
select().
This allows the deep-cmdsub.fish test to pass on Cygwin.
Use the remaining_to_disclose count to determine if all completions
are shown (allows consistent behavior between short and long completion
lists).
Closes#8485
On a commandline like "ls arg" (cursor at end) we do not expand
abbrevations on enter. OTOH, on "ls " we do expand. This can be
frustrating because it means that the two obvious ways to suppress
abbrevation expansion (C-Space or post-expansion C-Z) cannot be used to
suppress expansion of a command without arguments. (One workaround is
"ls #".)
Only expand-on-execute if the cursor is at the command name (no space
in between).
This is a strict improvement for realistic scenarios, because if there
is a space, the user has already expressed the intent to not expand
the abbreviation. (I hope no one is using recursive abbreviations.)
Closes#8423
This allows to disable autosuggestions in config or with
fish -C 'set -g fish_autosuggestion_enabled 0'
instead of only in existing interactive sessions.
I'm not sure if passing the env var table is actually necessary here,
since we already have a reader.
This adds a variable, $fish_autosuggestion_enabled.
When set to 0, it will turn off autosuggestions/highlighting.
Setting it to anything else will enable it (which also
means this remains enabled by default).
Fixes#8232.
Note that this needed to have expect_prompt used in the pexpect test -
we might want to add a "catchup" there so you can just ignore the
prompt counter for a bit and pick it back up later.
Today the reader exposes its internals directly, e.g. to the commandline
builtin. This is of course not thread safe. For example in concurrent
execution, running `commandline` twice in separate threads would cause a
race and likely a crash.
Fix this by factoring all the commandline state into a new type
'commandline_state_t'. Make it a singleton (there is only one command
line
after all) and protect it with a lock.
No user visible change here.
No functional change here; this migrates the fix ensuring that history
items are available in the builtin interactive read command into the
reader itself, in preparation for removing reader_get_history().
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 crashed on Fedora with the rpm packages, but not when building
from source, so some compiler option triggers it.
But the root cause is us running `text.front()` on an empty string,
which isn't something you should do.
Fixes#8009.
This simply checks if the parser requested exit after running any
binding scripts (in read_normal_chars).
I think this means we no longer need the `exit` bind function.
Fixes#7967.
This concerns the problem of "injecting" fancy fish bits like job reaping
into the "common" input stuff which is also used by fish_key_reader.
Instead of providing a callback, make the input event queue a base class
with virtual functions. This allows for a richer interface and simplifies
some memory management issues.
select_wrapper_t wraps up the annoying bits of using select(): keeping
track of the max fd, passing null for boring parameters, and
constructing the timeout. Introduce a wrapper struct for this and
replace the existing uses of select() with the wrapper.
When a terminal in a tiling WM starts, it might start the shell before
it has reached its "final" size. So we get the terminal width,
then the terminal would be resized (to appease the tiling logic),
and then we would print the abandon line with the omitted newline
char, only if the size got smaller (likely!), we would overflow the
line and land on the next.
So what we do is a bit of a hack: We don't abandon the first line.
This means that `printf %s foo; fish` will overwrite the `foo`, but
that's a super small problem and I don't see another way around this.
Fixes#7893.
The bell is a mechanism for important notifications. Not having things
to do in response to a keypress isn't important enough, especially
because we're already flashing and the bell might actually be a bell.
Fixes#7875.
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.
013a563ed0 made it so we only try to
adjust terminal modes if we are in the terminal pgroup, but that's not
enough.
Fish starts background jobs in events inside its own pgroup, so
function on-foo --on-event foo
fish -c 'sleep 3' &
end
would have the backgrounded fish try to fiddle with the terminal and
succeed.
Instead, only fiddle with the terminal if we're interactive (this
should probably be extended to other bits, but this is the particular
problematic part)
Fixes#7842.
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.
This concerns the behavior when running an external command from a key
binding. The history is:
Prior to 5f16a299a7, fish would run these external commands in shell
modes. This meant that fish would pick up any tty changes from external
commands (see #2114).
After 5f16a299a7, fish would save and restore its shell modes around
these external commands. This introduced a regression where anything the
user typed while a bound external command was executing would be echoed,
because external command mode has ECHO set in c_lflag. (This can be
reproed easily with `bind -q 'sleep 1'` and then pressing q and typing).
So 5f16a299a7 was reverted in fd9355966.
This commit partially reverts fd9355966. It has it both ways: external
commands are launched with shell modes, but/and shell modes are restored
after the external command completes. This allows commands to muck with
the tty, as long as they can handle getting shell modes; but it does not
enable ECHO mode so it fixes the regression found in #7770.
Fixes#7770. Fixes#2114 (for the third time!)
This partially reverts commit fd9355966e.
Unfortunately this causes input coming in while bind functions are
running to show up on screen.
Since the cure is worse than the disease let's just stop doing it.
My guess is this needs to *only* be done while running an external
command.
Fixes#7770
Reintroduces #2114
Partially reverts 5f16a299a7
Before now, we would be getting the terminal modes before config.fish,
then running config.fish without any of the term "stealing" and modes
copying. This meant that changes made to the terminal modes in there
were simply lost.
So, what we do is simply set the modes before config and then copy
them after, once.
Note that this does *not* turn off flow control again - if you turn it
on in config.fish that should work.
Fixes#7783.
This half-reverts commit a3cb1e2dcd,
avoiding the bit that passed arguments differently.
Note that this means the initial bug is kept in the hardcoded fallback title.
Fixes#7749.
Since smartcase, we could land in a situation where we offer one
option in the pager, which is awkward.
So detect this and just insert the option directly, we can add any
more smartness later.
Fixes#7738.
fish maintains two tty modes: one for itself and one for external
commands. The external command mode is also used when executing
fish-script key bindings, which was added in 5f16a299a7 (note that
commit had the wrong issue, the correct issue is #2114).
Prior to this fix, when switching to external modes, we would also reset
the tty's foreground color. This bumped tty's timestamp, causing us to
believe that the tty had been modified, and then repainting the prompt. If
the prompt were multi-line, we would repaint the whole prompt starting
from its second line, leaving a trailing line above it.
It would be reasonable to save the tty timestamp after resetting the
color, but given that using external modes for keybindings is new, it's
better to instead not reset the color in this case. So migrate the color
resetting to only when we run external commands.
Fixes#7722
Since, unlike e.g. OPOST, this can sometimes be useful, just copy
whatever flow control settings the terminal ends up with.
We still *default* flow control to off (because it's an awful default
and allows us to bind ctrl-s), but if the user decides to enable it so
be it.
Note that it's _possible_ flow control ends up enabled accidentally, I
doubt this happens much and it won't render the shell unusable (and
good terminals might even tell you you've stopped the app).
Fixes#7704
Fish was previously oblivious to the existence of mouse-tracking ANSI
escapes; this was mostly OK because they're disabled by default and we
don't enable them, but if a TUI application that turned on mouse
reporting crashed or exited without turning mouse reporting off, fish
would be left in an unusable state as all mouse reporting CSI sequences
would be posted to the prompt.
This can be tested by executing `printf '\x1b[?1003h'` at the prompt,
then clicking with any mouse button anywhere within the terminal window.
Previously, this would have resulted in seeming garbage being spewed to
the prompt; now, fish detects the mouse tracking CSIs posted to stdin by
the terminal emulator and a) ignores them to prevent invalid input, as
well as b) posts the CSI needed to disable future mouse tracking events
from being emitted on subsequent mouse interactions (until re-enabled).
Note that since we respond to a mouse tracking CSI rather than
pre-emptively disable mouse reporting, we do not need to do any sort of
feature detection to determine whether or not the terminal supports
mouse reporting (otherwise, if it didn't support it and we posted the
CSI anyway, we'd end up with exactly the kind of cruft posted to the
prompt that we're trying to avoid).
Fixes#4873
Now that we have multiple clients of count_preceding_backslashes, factor
it out from fish_indent into wcstringutil.h, and then use the shared
implementation.
