For anyone who hasn't yet, run `fish_config` on a system with a web
browser. Nice.
The osx installer seems to have wiped out my previous version of fish
that was in /usr/local/bin/fish, would be good if it could just move it
aside if it exists already (or maybe it did and I just can't find it).
Additionally, I'd like to be able to change the autosuggestions hotkey
(right arrow) to something else. The docs say ' Left and right moves one
character left or right' but doesn't mention anything about autocomplete.

Hello fellow fish fans! I am ridiculous_fish, and I come bearing lungfuls of
new life!
Over the past year, I and my partner Siteshwar have been working on a fish
fork. We've been modernizing fish's codebase, while adding some truly
compelling features and improving performance. We've been living on this fork
for months, and we think it's _awesome_. Compared to stock fish, our branch is
noticeably faster and easier to maintain, and its new features have ruined me
for all other shells. bash now tastes like cardboard.
Our fork is now in Open Beta, and we'd like to invite you to try it out! We are
interested in feedback and bug reports.
We'd also like to start a discussion about our changes and whether/how to
incorporate them into fish trunk (which we would very much like to do). Our
changes are transformative and impact nearly every aspect of fish's code base,
so it is not to be undertaken lightly. But our changes are also very compelling
from the perspectives of both users and maintainers, and our months of
living-on have given us a lot of confidence in them. Our branch is not only the
best fish ever made; we think it's the best POSIX command line shell, period.
Here's how to get it!
Main page: http://ridiculousfish.com/shell/
Open beta page: http://ridiculousfish.com/shell/beta.html
Release notes: http://ridiculousfish.com/shell/release_notes.html
Gitorious page: https://gitorious.org/~ridiculousfish/fish-shell/fishfish
The relevant git branch is fish_fish.
Please share your thoughts, reactions, rants, raves, and bug reports on this
list. If all goes well, we'll announce the Open Beta more widely in the
upcoming week.
A few teaser improvements (for a longer list, see the Release Notes above):
- Autosuggestions (think URL fields in browsers)
- 256 color support
- Web-based configuration
- Syntax highlighting is now multithreaded, so it doesn't cause stuttering
typing on slow disks / filesystems
- Overall performance is way better
- It's all in (sane) C++. No more string_buffer_t, array_list_t, or
hash_table_t, and no more halloc!
