\subsection source-description Description
|
|
|
|
`source` evaluates the commands of the specified file in the current
|
|
shell. This is different from starting a new process to perform the
|
|
commands (i.e. `fish < FILENAME`) since the commands will be
|
|
evaluated by the current shell, which means that changes in
|
|
shell variables will affect the current shell. If additional arguments are
|
|
specified after the file name, they will be inserted into the $argv
|
|
variable.
|
|
|
|
If no file is specified, or if the file name '`-`' is used, stdin will
|
|
be read.
|
|
|
|
The return status of `source` is the return status of the last job to
|
|
execute. If something goes wrong while opening or reading the file,
|
|
`source` exits with a non-zero status.
|
|
|
|
`.` (a single period) is an alias for the `source` command. The use of `.`
|
|
is deprecated in favour of `source`, and `.` will be removed in a future
|
|
version of fish.
|
|
|
|
\subsection source-example Example
|
|
|
|
`source ~/.config/fish/config.fish` causes fish to re-read its initialization file.
