This release serves primarily to fix some regressions from 4.8.0 and other bugs.
Interactive improvements
- On non-macOS platforms,
alt-backspace,alt-delete,alt-leftandalt-rightoperate on words again instead of tokens (#12122) eliminating cross-platform differences in input handling. - Builtin and function commands can now be colored separately via new variables
fish_color_builtinandfish_color_function(#12837). - Add fish_darcs_prompt for Darcs repository status.
- Fixed a crash in
commandline --current-processwhen the cursor is inside a&|pipe (#12868). - Since prompt marking (via OSC 133) causes an issue in Konsole’s default configuration, prompt marking had been disabled for Konsole in 4.8.0. Now the
omit-term-workaroundsfeature flag can be enabled to enable prompt marking on Konsole again (#12859).
Regression fixes:
- (From 4.8.0)
abbr --position=anywherecompletions are no longer offered in argument position, to avoid cluttering the completion pager (#12838). - (From 4.8.0)
pacman -Qshort option completions (#12857).
