I'm afraid you can't. The documentation does not mention such possibility:
Command line editor
The fish editor features copy and paste, a searchable history and many
editor functions that can be bound to special keyboard shortcuts.
Here are some of the commands available in the editor:
- Tab completes <http://fishshell.com/docs/current/index.html#completion>
the current token.
- Home or Ctrl-A moves the cursor to the beginning of the line.
- End or Ctrl-E moves to the end of line. If the cursor is already at
the end of the line, and an autosuggestion is available, End or Ctrl-E
accepts the autosuggestion.
- Left (or Ctrl-B) and Right (or Ctrl-F) move the cursor left or right
by one character. If the cursor is already at the end of the line, and an
autosuggestion is available, the Right key and the Ctrl-F combination
accept the suggestion.
- Alt-Left and Alt-Right move the cursor one word left or right, or
moves forward/backward in the directory history if the command line is
empty.
- Up and Down search the command history for the previous/next command
containing the string that was specified on the commandline before the
search was started. If the commandline was empty when the search started,
all commands match. See the history
<http://fishshell.com/docs/current/index.html#history>section for more
information on history searching.
- Alt-Up and Alt-Down search the command history for the previous/next
token containing the token under the cursor before the search was started.
If the commandline was not on a token when the search started, all tokens
match. See the history
<http://fishshell.com/docs/current/index.html#history>section for more
information on history searching.
- Delete and Backspace removes one character forwards or backwards
respectively.
- Ctrl-C deletes the entire line.
- Ctrl-D delete one character to the right of the cursor. If the command
line is empty, Ctrl-D will exit fish.
- Ctrl-K moves contents from the cursor to the end of line to the
killring <http://fishshell.com/docs/current/index.html#killring>.
- Ctrl-U moves contents from the beginning of line to the cursor to the
killring <http://fishshell.com/docs/current/index.html#killring>.
- Ctrl-L clears and repaints the screen.
- Ctrl-W moves the previous word to the killring
<http://fishshell.com/docs/current/index.html#killring>.
- Alt-D moves the next word to the killring
<http://fishshell.com/docs/current/index.html#killring>.
- Alt-W prints a short description of the command under the cursor.
- Alt-L lists the contents of the current directory, unless the cursor
is over a directory argument, in which case the contents of that directory
will be listed.
- Alt-P adds the string '| less;' to the end of the job under the
cursor. The result is that the output of the command will be paged.
- Alt-C capitalizes the current word.
- Alt-U makes the current word uppercase.
You can change these key bindings using the bind
<http://fishshell.com/docs/current/commands.html#bind> builtin command.
