Re: [Fish-users] Does fish supports named directories as in zsh
Hi Greg, the approach you suggested works, but not user friendly autocompleting variables appends SPACE rather than / i mean: cd $my_dTAB now it autocompletes as: cd $my_dirSPACE instead of cd $my_dir/ thanks santhosh On Sat, Nov 1, 2014 at 6:35 AM, Greg Reagle greg.rea...@umbc.edu wrote: On Fri, Oct 31, 2014, at 07:25 PM, Santhosh T wrote: zsh supports named directories as explained in http://blog.bytetouch.com/tag/named-directories/ does fishshell has something equivalent? I am just a fish novice, but here are my two cents. I don't know if fish has that feature, but it could be done with variables: .set -U my_dir /usr/local/share cd $my_dir/man/ -- http://www.fastmail.fm - Send your email first class -- ___ Fish-users mailing list Fish-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fish-users
Re: [Fish-users] ALT+Left and ALT+Right is not moving forward/backward in directory history
I found a solution - I am using Terminal.app, and in the “Keyboards” tab of the preferences I found the mappings for different key combinations, among them the mappings for Alt-Left and Alt-right (see attached screenshot). Those are the sequences that need to be used with the “bind” command to map to the appropriate functions: bind \033f next-or-forward-word bind \033b prevd-or-backward-word And now Alt-left and Alt-right work as expected! I don’t know if you are using Terminal.app or other terminal program, but I’m betting the solution must be a similar one.

also prompt_pwd can take advantage of named directories to shorten path as in zsh hash -d my_dir /backup/project/my_dir cd /$my_dir/temp now the prompt can show current dir as ~my_dir/temp instead of /b/p/m/temp thanks Santhosh On Sat, Nov 1, 2014 at 6:07 PM, Greg Reagle greg.rea...@umbc.edu wrote: On Sat, Nov 1, 2014, at 03:40 AM, Santhosh T wrote: Hi Greg, the approach you suggested works, but not user friendly autocompleting variables appends SPACE rather than / i mean: cd $my_dTAB now it autocompletes as: cd $my_dirSPACE instead of cd $my_dir/ Yes I see your point.
