[UPDATE] fish shell 2.1.1 on DragonFlyBSD 3.8.2 -- fish command line seems broken (connect via PuTTY ssh, start fish shell from tcsh shell command line);

[Steve Petrie, P.Eng.]

Here is an update on this problem.

These links:
  a.. https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/1741
   
  b.. https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/1064
Describe a problem with fish shell on FreeBSD & OpenBSD, similar to what I am 
experiencing on DragonFlyBSD.

Apparently the problem will disappear with the next release of fish. And 
there's no patch for the problem in current versions of fish, because the fix 
is a planned radical architectural change.

So I'm going to contact the fish forum for more details.
