Hi fish-users,
I've been running a lot of similar commands lately and I've been really
grateful for the fish command suggestion feature. One thing I've come
across is a situation where I only want to take the next word or two from
the suggestion and then finish the command differently from the way fish
suggested.
As an example, if the command history contains:
ssh robert@server 'ls /home'
then when I type 'ssh' the suggestion will be the full command. If I
instead want to run `ssh robert@server 'ls /etc'` I can either type out the
full command or accept the full completion and ^W back over a few words to
put in what I want.
I am thinking that it would be useful for me to have a "complete next word"
key, which would take the completion up to some token marker (whitespace or
quote or whatever makes sense here). Then my input strategy would be more
like this:
- type ssh, see suggestion for `ssh robert@server 'ls /home'`
- ^G to take 'robert@server'
- type the rest of the command manually
Thoughts?
