As mentioned in 5b706faa73, bare
`disown` has a problem: It disowns the last *existing* job.
Unfortunately, it's easy to see cases where that won't happen:
sleep 5m &
/bin/true & # will exit immediately
disown # will most likely disown *sleep*, not true
So what we do is to pass $last_pid.
In help especially this is likely to occur because many graphical
browsers fork immediately to avoid blocking the terminal (we only
added the backgrounding and disown because some weren't).
Note that it's *possible* this doesn't occur if used in the same
function, but I don't want to rely on those semantics.
It might be worth doing this as the default - see #7210.
This allows for multiple edits to be undone/redone in one go, as if they
were one edit.
Useful when a function is editing the commandline buffer via scripted
changes or via a keybinding so the internal changes to the buffer can be
abstracted away.
(Having extreme difficulty getting pexpect to play nice with the concept
of undo/redo...)
It also reflows.
We might want to think about doing something more extensible here, as
konsole is also about to add reflow, but for now the main problem
children here are VTE and alacritty.
Extends #7491.
Of note: The rpm/yum thing seems to be coupled, so I put it into one
function that tries the yum helper and uses the rpm path otherwise.
Zypper is already its own thing, so this should only be used for yum
and probably dnf (does that still have the helper?)
Zypper can be dropped, as that already used a separate function in the file.
Apk can just be inlined - it's literally one line for installed and another for all packages.
This function doesn't make any sense.
Most things that expect package names expect package names for *one
specific package manager*.
It only happens to work, most of the time, because most people only
have one package manager installed.
The code to override the `(status current-command) was present`, but not
handled in either the default `fish_title` function or the fallback.
Closes#7444.
Use the `-d` parameter to `zfs list` to limit snapshots to the dataset
named in the current token being completed. Thanks to @Debilski for the
tip.
Closes#7472
Only generate the list of snapshots when
a) the argument must be a snapshot and nothing else, or
b) the argument as typed contains a literal @, or
c) a snapshot is a valid completion and there is only one dataset
matching the argument as entered.
Unfortunately, it seems the `zfs` command itself is extremely primitive
and doesn't support listing snapshots by dataset so when we need to
generate completions, we end up needing to enumerate all snapshots
(ever) across all datasets. I'd be very happy to be proven wrong, but I
think the only other way would be manually parse `zdb` output.
See #7472
- clip.exe is used to copy to the Windows clipboard
- There's no binary for pasting from the Windows clipboard so
`Get-Clipboard` from powershell is used as a workaround. The
superflous carriage return is stripped from the output.
This is super cheesy.
One of the most common feature requests we get is "control-r must
search", even tho just using history-search-backward via e.g. up-arrow
is perfectly capable. The only real difference is that ctrl-r search
in other shells allows editing the search term by default, while we
stop the history search and edit the new commandline in those cases.
So, since the major problem is muscle-memory on ctrl-r,
let's just use that!
This makes ctrl-r do nothing on empty commandlines, and do
history-search-backward otherwise, so the basic flow of "press ctrl-r
to start history search, enter your search term, press ctrl-r to cycle
through matches" just works (except the first ctrl-r is useless and it
doesn't show anything).
See #602.
These aliases seem to be common, see #7389 and others. This prevents
recursion on that example, so `alias ssh "env TERM=screen ssh"` will just
have the same completions as ssh.
Checking the last token is a heuristic which hopefully works for most
cases. Users are encouraged to use functions instead of aliases.
In the new __fish_apropos, makewhatis is run explicitly to generate the
whatis database. However this can be a little slow. Run it in the
background, after the apropos call completes so as to avoid a weird
race.
This means that descriptions may not be available the first time the
user invokes it, but that's better than appearing to hang for a while.
override MANPATH used by apropos with local whatis database and update it once a day
get rid of xargs
Created __fish_apropos and fixed __fish_complete_man to use that as well
moved macos apropos comment
This was a wrapper around status_to_signal, just because that only
handled a single argument.
Instead, just teach status_to_signal to handle multiple arguments and
be done.
This is too important to not be one.
For one if it couldn't be loaded for any reason it would
break a lot of fish scripts.
Also this is faster by ~20x.
Fixes#7342
"function --argument" is not a thing, it's "--argument-names". This only
accidentally works because our getopt is awful and allows abbreviated
long options.
Similarly, one argparse test used "--d" instead of "-d" or "--def".
