No, I think, see https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/4036. But you can do something like that using some other external command like fzf, e.g.: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- set -l result (echo "foo bar baz" | fzf --prompt "Choose wisely: ") echo $result # either foo, bar, or baz --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Of course, now your script relies on fish *and* fzf (or whatever other external command you might want to use as selection UI).
