Thanks for your feedback! I will do as you proposed and no longer rely on
shell expansions. Thanks!

I think the suggestions should not include the part that is already
entered. No need for configuration.

I usually:
set nameis (echo $dataset | sed 's/\.[^.]*$//')

That renames "foo.bar.txt" to "foo.bar", whereas your snippet renames it to
"foo".

Re: Suffix pattern removing

Luciano ES — 2013-06-17T12:57:16

I agree that 'basename' doesn't quite cut it, and your request is fair. 

On the other hand, I think you have grown too accustomed to the quirk of one specific shell, although other shells have something similar. 

I would recommend you achieve what you want with sed, because it is really ubiquitous and will work in any shell. You may only realize how valuable that is after you have been through three or four shells, like I have (bash, ksh, tcsh and fish). 

So: 

set nameis (echo $dataset | sed 's/\([^.]\+\).*$/\1/')

Personally, I prefer this cleaner way:

set nameis (echo $dataset | sed -r 's/([^.]+).*$/\1/')

That solution also honors the old wisdom of The Unix Way, which is one dedicated tool for each specific task. 

An additional benefit of that approach is that you only have to learn the traditional Regular Expressions, not some dialect that no other language or tool uses.

Re: Suffix pattern removing

Well thanks, I knew this solution, but it only works if you know the
extension of the file. What I'm looking for is something that remove any
extension suffix, whatever it is. So, your last line should give "myfile"
alone.

Excessive file completion

Ilya Kulakov — 2013-06-17T10:12:39

Hi

Whenever I try to complete file or dir names, fish prints suggestions which include part of the path I've already entered.
E.g. when I'm trying to complete /Applications/, fish suggests "…ications/Safari.app/"
Is it possible to configure fish to exclude "…ications/" from suggestions completely?

Ilya Kulakov

Re: Suffix pattern removing

Stestagg — 2013-06-17T08:50:36

One simple method would be to use basename:

nameis=(basename $dataset .foo)

this will perform the following,

if $dataset = myfile then $nameis = myfile
if $dataset = myfile.foo then $nameis = myfile
if $dataset = /path/to/myfile.foo then $nameis = myfile
if $dataset = /path/to/myfile.bar then $nameis = myfile.bar

so provided you don't need absolute paths, this is simple.

Steve

Suffix pattern removing

aurelien coillet — 2013-06-17T08:22:44

Hi,

How can I perform suffix removal as this (bash) command:

nameis=${dataset%.*}


if dataset is a filename with extension (say foo.txt), nameis will only
contain "foo".
Is there a way to do that with fish?

Thanks,

Re: Proper behavior on very long prompt?

Tony Wang — 2013-06-17T07:54:28

Hi,

That’s definitely a way to solve the problem, thanks.

What I have a question is that, I think the wrapping is the terminal emulator’s work.
Like when pwd outputs a wider-than-window-width result, it’s cut off the border, with
a newline. Couldn’t the prompt behavior the same way?

I may get into some source code to see how it works.

Hi Tony,  

fish does not attempt to wrap or truncate long prompts. Prompts often contain ANSI escape sequences, which make them difficult to wrap or truncate.  

What you can do is inspect the value of $COLUMNS in your fish_prompt, and avoid outputting one that is too long. If you have any other ideas or suggestions for what fish should do here, I'd love to hear them.

Re: Fish version of [[?

Robert Carpenter — 2013-06-16T19:26:47

Hey Robert,

The fish replacement for [[ is test. See the docs here:
http://fishshell.com/docs/2.0/commands.html#test

For your specific application, you might get some mileage out of contains (
http://fishshell.com/docs/2.0/commands.html#contains ) or case (
http://fishshell.com/docs/2.0/commands.html#case )

Hope this helps

Re: Working on a new terminal emulator

2013-06-16T08:52:18

This looks interesting.  I was wondering if perhaps you should consider
collaborating with the Final Term[1] project instead, but then they use
Vala and GTK/Clutter and you use Qt/QML, so perhaps having two projects is
warranted.

Anyway I'm not sure fish_title is quite what you want, and neither would
fish_prompt be.  They can be redrawn in situations where no command line
has been executed, such as when a key binding changes the working
directory.  I totally think we need some hooks[2] for these things in fish;
I've been wanting "postexec" myself for doing things like showing a desktop
notification when a long-running command finishes.  There's already an
event architecture in fish, so perhaps a few events could be added.  In
your case it might work to rebind Enter, something like:

    bind \n 'preexec; commandline -f execute'

I don't know of a way to hook the completions output.  I think it calls out
to fish_pager to display them, but I'm not sure if it does that in every
situation.  If I just replace i

Working on a new terminal emulator

Mario Signorino — 2013-06-15T19:55:35

Hi all,

I'm working on this: https://vimeo.com/68400623
It's still a prototype but maybe... it could work.

I started from bash.. then I moved to zsh.. now I've just discovered
fish... so I want to integrate it in xpipe.
I just take a quick look at the docs... but it's a big stuff and
probably it will require more time and attention. So far I didn't find
what I'm looking for. So I came here to say hello and ask some basic
question not found there...
1) Completion: is it possible to wrap the completion output inside
some escape codes? Each entry. I use some custom escape codes to catch
any completion output  and display it in the graphical way... In zsh I
add also some useful info as PWD and the complete line buffer. My
escape code is \033|(whatever). It's not used in the vt100 standard...
Also it would be perfect to know (in case of file completion) the
exact type of any voice: file, directory, executable. At the end of
this email I will add an example of what I have done in zsh.
2) preexec: again, in zsh t

Proper behavior on very long prompt?

Tony Wang — 2013-06-15T15:04:50

Hi,

I’ve noticed that if the prompt is very long,
(longer than the window width), it’ll become
a single ‘>’, and it even won’t show a second
line.

What’s the consideration behind it?
I don’t think it’s friendly to users.
I tried to google, but found nothing.

Is there any configuration to change that?
Or, can I check if it happens, so I can try to
show something abbreviated instead?

Thanks! :)

Re: Equivalent of bash's $0?

Chris Wright — 2013-06-11T17:33:27

It's hacky, but you could read /proc/$PID/cmdline. It's a NUL-delimited
file containing the entire commandline used to start the process. Then you
can use readlink -f to find the absolute path. If the first element
resolves to the path of fish, the second should resolve to the path of the
script.
