The file is called "config.fish", not "init.fish". We'll call it "configuration" now. "Initialization" might be slightly more precise, but in an irritating way. Also some wording improvements to the section. In particular we now mention config.fish *early*, before the whole shebang.

Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
``fish_config`` is used to configure fish.
|
|
|
|
Without arguments or with the ``browse`` command it starts the web-based configuration interface. The web interface allows you to view your functions, variables and history, and to make changes to your prompt and color configuration. It starts a local web server and opens a browser window. When you are finished, close the browser window and press the Enter key to terminate the configuration session.
|
|
|
|
If the ``BROWSER`` environment variable is set, it will be used as the name of the web browser to open instead of the system default.
|
|
|
|
With the ``prompt`` command ``fish_config`` can be used to view and choose a prompt from fish's sample prompts inside the terminal directly.
|
|
|
|
Available subcommands for the ``prompt`` command:
|
|
|
|
- ``choose`` loads a sample prompt in the current session.
|
|
- ``list`` lists the names of the available sample prompts.
|
|
- ``save`` saves the current prompt to a file (via :ref:`funcsave <cmd-funcsave>`).
|
|
- ``show`` shows what the given sample prompts (or all) would look like.
|
|

|
Example
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
``fish_config`` or ``fish_config browse`` opens a new web browser window and allows you to configure certain fish settings.
|
|
|
|
``fish_config prompt show`` demos the available sample prompts.
|
|
|
|
``fish_config prompt choose disco`` makes the disco prompt the prompt for the current session. This can also be used in :ref:`config.fish <configuration>` to set the prompt.
|
|
|
|
``fish_config prompt save`` saves the current prompt to an :ref:`autoloaded <syntax-function-autoloading>` file.
|
|
|
|
``fish_config prompt save default`` chooses the default prompt and saves it.
