--- title: FISH-CONFIG section: 7 header: Fish Shell Configuration User Manual date: June 2026 author: Rootiest --- # NAME fish-config - personal fish shell configuration for Fish 4.x with modern CLI tool integration # SYNOPSIS help config [SECTION] Open this manual in the best available pager. Optionally jump to a section by keyword: help config keybindings help config pkg help config abbreviations help config logs The `help config` syntax integrates with fish's built-in help command. The underlying `config-help` function is also available directly. # DESCRIPTION A production-grade Fish shell configuration targeting Fish 4.x. It provides: - Drop-in replacements for common Unix tools (ls, cat, rm, du, ping, less) - Deep Kitty and WezTerm terminal integration: tab/window/pane management from the command line - Scrollback history snapshots saved to ~/.terminal_history on session exit - Automatic Python virtualenv activation on directory change - Cross-platform package management via pkg and fish-deps - AI session helpers for Claude Code and Antigravity - Catppuccin Mocha color theme throughout The configuration is split across: config.fish Main entry point; sets env vars and PATH conf.d/ abbr.fish All abbreviations cheat.fish cheat.sh completions done.fish Desktop notifications for long commands first_run.fish One-time init: Fisher bootstrap, theme, welcome key_bindings.fish Custom key bindings and Vi mode paru-wrapper.fish Auto-generates ~/.local/bin/paru logging wrapper starship.fish fish_prompt with OSC 133 shell-integration markers tailscale.fish Tailscale CLI tab completions theme.fish Catppuccin syntax highlight colors sponge_privacy.fish Sponge privacy patterns; filters credentials from history tricks.fish PATH, bang-bang helpers, bat man pages, aliases wakatime.fish WakaTime shell hook yay-wrapper.fish Auto-generates ~/.local/bin/yay logging wrapper zoxide.fish Zoxide z/zi integration; overrides cd functions/ Custom functions, one per file, autoloaded completions/ Tab completion scripts integrations/ fzf.fish FZF Catppuccin theme and key binding config docs/ Offline documentation and compiled man page fish-config.md Primary source manual (terminal-readable) fish-config.1 Compiled man page (auto-generated by CI) fish-config.index Section index for help config navigation html/ Chunked HTML docs (auto-generated by CI) wiki/ Markdown wiki (auto-generated by CI) --- # TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.

CONFIGURATION VARIABLES These variables are exported from config.fish on every interactive session. Override them in ~/.config/.user-dots/fish/local.fish. ## Environment Directories (XDG) XDG_CONFIG_HOME ~/.config XDG_CACHE_HOME ~/.cache XDG_DATA_HOME ~/.local/share XDG_STATE_HOME ~/.local/state Tools that respect XDG are directed to these paths rather than polluting $HOME. ## Tool Homes (XDG-compliant) CARGO_HOME $XDG_DATA_HOME/cargo RUSTUP_HOME $XDG_DATA_HOME/rustup GOPATH $XDG_DATA_HOME/go BUN_INSTALL $XDG_DATA_HOME/bun NPM_CONFIG_PREFIX $XDG_DATA_HOME/npm-global GNUPGHOME $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gnupg WAKATIME_HOME $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/wakatime ## Editor and Pager EDITOR nvim (falls back to vi if nvim is absent) VISUAL same as EDITOR SUDO_EDITOR same as EDITOR PAGER ov (falls back to less) ## Scrollback History SCROLLBACK_HISTORY_DIR ~/.terminal_history SCROLLBACK_HISTORY_MAX_FILES 100 Scrollback logs accumulate in SCROLLBACK_HISTORY_DIR as timestamped files. When the count exceeds SCROLLBACK_HISTORY_MAX_FILES the oldest are pruned automatically on exit. Use `logs` to browse them interactively. ## Other GPG_TTY $(tty) — ensures GPG passphrase prompts work CLAUDE_CODE_NO_FLICKER 1 — suppress terminal flicker in Claude Code CDPATH . ~/projects ~ Opinionated defaults (CDPATH, PAGER/MANPAGER, Vi mode, command shadows, terminal integrations) can be switched off per category with universal variables — see Section 7, "Opinionated Components (Minimal Mode)". ## Pager Hierarchy $PAGER is set to ov when available, falling back to less. The less wrapper function extends this into a full chain so anything that calls less directly also benefits: $PAGER → ov → less → more → cat When bat is installed, man pages are rendered with syntax highlighting: MANROFFOPT -c MANPAGER sh -c 'col -bx | bat -l man -p' ## Integrations ### Zoxide cd, z, and cdi/zi are all mapped to zoxide-backed navigation. Tab completions for cd and z blend standard directory entries (CWD and CDPATH) with frecency results so both familiar and frequently-visited paths appear in one list. ### DirEnv Automatically loads .envrc files on directory change. Takes priority over the auto-venv logic — if a directory is managed by direnv, the auto-venv activation is skipped entirely. ### Auto Python Venv When entering a directory that contains a .venv/, the virtualenv is activated automatically and deactivated when you leave the project tree. ### WakaTime Every shell command is reported to WakaTime for time-tracking. Set FISH_WAKATIME_DISABLED=1 to disable without removing the plugin. ### Tailscale Full tab completion for the tailscale CLI is provided via conf.d/tailscale.fish. ### Done Notifications Desktop notifications fire when a command takes longer than 10 seconds and the terminal window is not focused. Configured via fish universal variables: __done_min_cmd_duration 10000 ms __done_notification_urgency_level low ### Scrollback History When running inside Kitty, closing a shell session via exit saves a timestamped scrollback snapshot to SCROLLBACK_HISTORY_DIR. Files are named: scrollback_YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS.log The paru and yay wrappers (auto-generated in ~/.local/bin/) tee all output to: paru_YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS.log yay_YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS.log Before pruning, _scrollback_prune_junk silently removes empty files, files with only a single meaningful line (e.g. bare [exited] captures), and Kitty tab-rename prompt captures. Use exit --no-log (or exit -n) to skip capture. --- # 2. PATH SETUP Directories prepended to PATH in this order (first wins): ~/.local/bin Standard user-local executables ~/Applications User-installed standalone apps ~/scripts Personal shell scripts ~/bin Cargo binaries (appended — lowest priority) $BUN_INSTALL/bin Bun runtime and global packages $NPM_CONFIG_PREFIX/bin Global npm packages ~/.lmstudio/bin LM Studio CLI ~/.resend/bin Resend CLI ~/.fzf/bin fzf binary (git-installed) Cargo binaries are intentionally appended (lowest priority) to avoid shadowing system-installed Rust tools. --- # 3. KEY BINDINGS The shell uses Vi key bindings (fish_vi_key_bindings). All custom bindings are active in Insert, Normal, and Visual modes unless noted. Binding Action ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Ctrl+G Insert the head of the previous command's last path argument. Equivalent to !$:h in Bash. Example: previous = "cd /usr/local/bin" Ctrl+G inserts "/usr/local" Ctrl+F Interactive history substitution. Type old/new then press Ctrl+F to apply s/old/new/ to the previous command. Equivalent to !!:s/old/new/ in Bash. Example: previous = "echo this is a test" type "this is/that was", press Ctrl+F result = "echo that was a test" Ctrl+Alt+U Strip the first token of the current command line, leaving arguments in place with the cursor at the start. Useful for quickly retyping the command. Example: "mkdir new_folder" -> " new_folder" Ctrl+Alt+= Evaluate the current command line buffer with Qalculate! (qalc) and print the result inline. Requires qalc to be installed. Example: type "150 * 1.08", press Ctrl+Alt+= prints 162 Ctrl+Enter Smart execute: runs commands instantly without pressing Enter a second time for certain fast-path commands (speedtest-fast, etc.). @@ FZF inline picker. Type @@ anywhere on the command line to open an fzf picker and insert a selection at the cursor position. ## FZF Bindings (bundled from PatrickF1/fzf.fish) Ctrl+R Search command history Ctrl+Alt+F Search git-tracked files Ctrl+Alt+L Search git log Ctrl+Alt+S Search git status Ctrl+V Search shell variables Ctrl+Alt+P Search running processes --- # 4.

CUSTOMIZATION ## Machine-local Configuration Place machine-specific settings that should not be committed to git in: ~/.config/.user-dots/fish/local.fish Typical uses: additional PATH entries, local aliases, hostname-specific env vars, work-specific tool configs. ## Secrets and API Keys ~/.config/.user-dots/fish/secrets.fish Store API tokens, GPG keys, private credentials here. This file is never committed. Both files are sourced at the end of config.fish on every interactive session, so they can override anything set earlier. ## Overriding Configuration Variables Any variable set in local.fish after the main config loads takes effect. Example: to increase the scrollback history limit: # in local.fish set -gx SCROLLBACK_HISTORY_MAX_FILES 200 ## Fish Universal Variables Some settings (fzf colors, theme) are stored in fish_variables via `set -U`. These are machine-local and git-ignored. Do not commit fish_variables. ## Opinionated Components (Minimal Mode) Every opinionated piece of this config is active by default but can be switched off through six category opt-out variables, each evaluated via __fish_variable_check. Set a variable to any falsy value (0, false, no, off, n) to disable its category; erase it or set a truthy value (1, true, yes, on, y) to re-enable. Unset means enabled. An explicit per-category truthy value takes precedence over the master switch: setting __fish_config_opinionated=0 disables all unset categories, but a category with an explicit truthy value remains enabled regardless. Variable Disables ------------------------------ ------------------------------------ __fish_config_op_aliases Command shadows and flag injection: ls->eza, cat->bat, cd->zoxide, rm->trash, less->ov, top->btop, ping->prettyping, ssh->kitten, du->duf/dust, mkdir/bash wrappers, history timestamps, grep/cp/mv/wget flag injection, help intercept __fish_config_op_autoexec Startup side-effects: Fisher bootstrap, theme apply, paru/yay wrapper generation, auto venv activation, WakaTime hook __fish_config_op_overrides Key and env overrides: Vi mode, exit->smart_exit, PAGER/MANPAGER, CDPATH, bang-bang system, autopair, puffer, starship prompt, theme colors, FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS, right prompt __fish_config_op_integrations Terminal/tool coupling: Kitty/ WezTerm window abbreviations, done notifications, spwin/tab/split, hist, logs, upgrade, WakaTime __fish_config_op_logging Logging & capture: scrollback capture on exit, paru/yay AUR log wrappers, Kitty watcher capture; sentinel file coordinates cross-process state __fish_config_op_greeting Greeting & first-run UI: per-session fish_greeting override (defines empty function late in config.fish to suppress distro greetings such as CachyOS fastfetch); first-run welcome banner in conf.d/first_run.fish Examples: # Disable command shadows only (rm becomes plain rm again): set -U __fish_config_op_aliases off # Full minimal mode — disable all six categories at once: set -U __fish_config_opinionated 0 # Re-enable everything: set -Ue __fish_config_opinionated # Minimal mode but keep the greeting: set -U __fish_config_opinionated 0 set -U __fish_config_op_greeting 1 # (erase both to go back to full-flavor defaults) Notes: - Command shadows (rm, cat, ls, ...) react immediately; conf.d-level components (bindings, prompt, abbreviations, hooks) take effect in new shells. - With aliases disabled, rm falls back to bare `command rm` — files are deleted permanently, not trashed. - Disabled integration commands (spwin, tab, split, hist, logs, upgrade) print an error naming the variable that disabled them. - On CachyOS, the distro fish config's own aliases, history override, and bang-bang bindings are stripped per category as well. ### Component Reference The following tables detail every component in each category. Use this reference to understand exactly which behaviors change when you toggle a category variable. #### C1 — Command Shadows Disabling __fish_config_op_aliases restores standard system behavior for all of these commands. Command / Alias Active behavior Disabled fallback ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── ls eza -l -a --icons --hyperlink system ls cat bat syntax-highlighted; dirs → ls /usr/bin/cat cd zoxide frecency-based navigation fish builtin cd rm moves files to trash (recoverable) command rm (permanent) less $PAGER → ov → less → more → cat system less du duf (disk overview) or dust (dir tree) system du top btop resource monitor system top ping prettyping --nolegend animation system ping ssh kitten ssh in Kitty terminal system ssh rg rg --hyperlink-format=kitty system rg mkdir verbose path-tree display on creation mkdir -p silently bash XDG bashrc + $SHELL reset on exit system bash history timestamps prepended to every entry fish builtin history cp / mv forced -i confirmation prompt cp / mv unmodified wget forced --continue (resume downloads) system wget grep/fgrep/egrep forced --color=auto system grep variants dir / vdir forced --color=auto system dir / vdir help config intercepts "help config" → config-help fish builtin help When C1 is disabled, `rm` uses bare `command rm` with no wrapper — files are permanently deleted, not trashed. There is no intermediate safety net. #### C2 — Startup Side-Effects These run automatically without any user action. Disabling __fish_config_op_autoexec prevents all of them. Component Trigger What it does ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Fisher bootstrap First shell only Downloads and installs fisher Fisher update After bootstrap Installs all fish_plugins entries Catppuccin Mocha theme First shell only Applies theme via fish_config paru wrapper Every startup Writes ~/.local/bin/paru wrapper yay wrapper Every startup Writes ~/.local/bin/yay wrapper Python venv activation On every cd Sources .venv/bin/activate.fish WakaTime command hook On every command Reports to WakaTime API When C2 is disabled: no Fisher install, no theme application, no paru/yay wrapper generation, no automatic venv activation, and no WakaTime reporting. The first-run completion marker (__fish_config_first_run_complete) is still set so the init does not re-run on subsequent shells. Python venv activation fires on every directory change. If a directory uses direnv (.envrc present), direnv takes priority and auto-venv is skipped for that directory. #### C3 — Key and Environment Overrides These change fundamental shell behavior: how keys work, which pager opens, and what the prompt looks like. Disabling __fish_config_op_overrides removes all of them. Override What it replaces or sets ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Vi mode fish_vi_key_bindings replaces default Emacs mode exit → smart_exit exit wrapper that captures scrollback before closing PAGER=ov ov used by git, man, and all $PAGER-aware tools MANPAGER=bat pipeline man pages rendered with syntax highlighting CDPATH=. ~/projects ~ bare dir names resolve against ~/projects and ~ Bang-bang system ! and $ keys expand history; !^, !*, !-N, !?str?, ^old^new abbreviations; six expand_bang_* helpers Autopair ( [ { " ' auto-close to (), [], {}, "", '' Puffer key intercepts . ! $ * keys intercepted for smart expansion Starship prompt fish_prompt replaced by Starship + OSC 133 markers Catppuccin colors 30+ fish_color_* variables set to Mocha palette FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS FZF themed to Catppuccin Mocha colors Right prompt fish_right_prompt: Docker context + timestamp The bang-bang system spans key_bindings.fish, abbr.fish, puffer.fish, and six expand_bang_*.fish functions. All are gated together — disabling C3 removes the entire bang-expansion system at once. When C3 is disabled, `exit` falls back to `builtin exit` with no scrollback capture, no Kitty IPC, and no file I/O on exit. The scrollback capture block is independently controlled by C5 (see below). #### C4 — Terminal and Tool Integration These features couple the shell to specific external tools. Disabling __fish_config_op_integrations disables all of them. Component Requires ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── ~60 Kitty/WezTerm abbrs Active Kitty or WezTerm session (:w, :wv, :wh, :t, etc.) Done desktop notifications Graphical desktop with a notification daemon spwin Kitty or WezTerm tab Kitty, WezTerm, or Konsole split Kitty or WezTerm hist fzf + wl-copy (Wayland clipboard) logs fzf + ov; reads from ~/.terminal_history/ upgrade paru or yay (Arch Linux only) WakaTime hook wakatime CLI and a configured API key Disabled integration commands (spwin, tab, split, hist, logs, upgrade) print a colored error to stderr naming the variable that disabled them rather than silently failing. #### C5 — Logging and Capture Three components capture shell output to disk. Disabling __fish_config_op_logging skips all capture and removes the logging wrappers. Component What it captures ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Scrollback capture Terminal session output saved to: ~/.terminal_history/scrollback_YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS.log paru wrapper All paru/AUR output teed to: ~/.terminal_history/paru_YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS.log yay wrapper All yay/AUR output teed to: ~/.terminal_history/yay_YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS.log Kitty watcher watcher.py captures scrollback when Kitty closes Logging coordination via sentinel file C5 uses a sentinel file to synchronize state between the shell and out-of-process components (the Kitty watcher and all running shells): ~/.config/fish/.logging_disabled Disabling __fish_config_op_logging: 1. Creates the sentinel immediately in every open shell. 2. Removes ~/.local/bin/paru and ~/.local/bin/yay logging wrappers; bare /usr/bin/paru and /usr/bin/yay are used instead. 3. Kitty's watcher.py reads the sentinel on each save attempt and skips capture — no Kitty restart required. 4. smart_exit stops saving scrollback logs. Re-enabling __fish_config_op_logging: 1. Removes the sentinel in every open shell. 2. Regenerates paru/yay logging wrappers in ~/.local/bin/. 3. Kitty watcher resumes capture on the next session exit. Changes propagate to all running shells through an event handler that fires whenever __fish_config_op_logging changes — no shell restart needed. Note: C3 and C5 compose independently. C3 controls whether the smart_exit wrapper is active at all; C5 controls only the scrollback-capture block inside it. With C3 disabled, exit is plain builtin exit regardless of C5. #### C6 — Greeting and First-Run UI Component What it shows ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── First-run welcome banner One-time message on first interactive session fish_greeting override Empty function defined late in config.fish to suppress distro greetings (e.g. CachyOS sets fish_greeting to fastfetch by default) When C6 is disabled, no greeting is printed by this config. Any greeting set by the distro or other configs runs normally — this config simply does not override it. ## Prompt and Theme ### Starship The primary prompt is Starship, initialized by conf.d/starship.fish. Configure it via ~/.config/starship.toml. conf.d/starship.fish defines a fish_prompt wrapper that only activates when starship is in PATH. It emits OSC 133;A (prompt start) immediately before Starship renders and OSC 133;B (input start) immediately after, placing both markers on the prompt line itself. This allows ov to use them as sticky section headers when browsing scrollback logs. Without Starship, fish's built-in prompt handles these markers automatically. ### FZF FZF is themed to Catppuccin Mocha via FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS set in integrations/fzf.fish. The colors applied: Background: #1E1E2E (base) #313244 (surface0) Foreground: #CDD6F4 (text) Highlights: #F38BA8 (red) #CBA6F7 (mauve) #B4BEFE (lavender) To customize, override FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS in local.fish. ### Catppuccin Mocha Syntax Highlighting The Catppuccin Mocha theme ships with this config in themes/ and is applied on first run via `conf.d/first_run.fish`. Colors are stored in fish_variables (universal). To switch variants, install a different theme from themes/: fish_config theme save "Catppuccin Latte" --- # 8. FISHER PLUGINS Fisher is bootstrapped automatically on the **first interactive session** via `conf.d/first_run.fish`. This also applies the Catppuccin Mocha theme and prints a one-time welcome message (gated by __fish_config_op_greeting; set it to 0 to suppress). Subsequent sessions skip all first-run logic with zero overhead. To re-trigger first-run initialization (e.g., after a fresh install or for testing), run: set -Ue __fish_config_first_run_complete Then open a new shell. ## Fisher-Managed Plugins The following plugins are fully managed by Fisher. Their files are installed into the repo directory by Fisher and are listed in `.gitignore` — do not commit them. Fisher installs and updates them automatically. jorgebucaran/fisher Plugin manager itself meaningful-ooo/sponge Remove failed commands from history ## Sponge History Filtering Sponge removes failed commands from history and, via conf.d/sponge_privacy.fish, also filters privacy-sensitive commands through three layers: Layer 1 — Static patterns (universal, persistent across sessions): Commands matching any of these structural signatures are never recorded: --password / --token / --passphrase / --api-key flags with values Inline env assignments: GITHUB_TOKEN=xxx, MY_API_KEY=abc Fish set with sensitive names: set -gx GITHUB_TOKEN xxx URLs with embedded credentials: https://user:pass@host HTTP Authorization headers: curl -H "Authorization: ..." Basic auth flags: curl -u user:pass sshpass, docker login -p, openssl -passin/-passout Layer 2 — Dynamic secret values (session globals, refreshed each login): On the first prompt, after secrets.fish has loaded, the literal values of all exported variables whose names suggest credentials (TOKEN, PASSWORD, SECRET, API_KEY, etc.) are collected, regex-escaped, and added as a session-scoped overlay. Because globals shadow universals in Fish, the combined list is what sponge sees. Rotating a token takes effect on the next login automatically. Layer 3 — Per-command filter (sponge_filter_secrets): Catches credentials in variables exported after login, such as tokens sourced from a project .env file mid-session. To add your own persistent patterns: set -U -a sponge_regex_patterns 'your-regex-here' ## Bundled Plugin Functionality The remaining plugin functionality is bundled directly with this config rather than managed through Fisher. The bundled versions include customizations for Fish 4.x compatibility and improved behavior that differ from their upstream releases. Installing them through Fisher would overwrite these customizations. Bundled components and their upstream origins: catppuccin/fish → themes/ + conf.d/theme.fish PatrickF1/fzf.fish → functions/_fzf_*.fish + conf.d/fzf.fish franciscolourenco/done → conf.d/done.fish jorgebucaran/autopair.fish → functions/_autopair_*.fish + conf.d/autopair.fish nickeb96/puffer-fish → functions/_puffer_fish_*.fish + conf.d/puffer.fish Do not run `fisher install` for these — it will overwrite the customized versions. To update their behavior, edit the relevant bundled files directly. ## fish_plugins Manifest The `fish_plugins` file at the config root: jorgebucaran/fisher Plugin manager itself meaningful-ooo/sponge Remove failed commands from history To update all Fisher-managed plugins, run `fisher update` or `fish-deps update` which calls it as its first step. --- # 9. INSTALLATION This configuration is managed as a git repository. To deploy on a new machine: mv ~/.config/fish ~/.config/fish.bak # back up any existing config git clone https://git.rootiest.dev/rootiest/fish-config.git ~/.config/fish Then open a new Fish shell. Fisher installs automatically on first launch and the Catppuccin Mocha theme is applied. All other plugin functionality is bundled directly with this config and requires no additional installation. ## Return Sentinel config.fish ends with a return sentinel guard. Any lines appended after it by a tool's setup command (starship init fish | source, zoxide init fish | source, etc.) will have no effect. All integrations are managed via conf.d/ files. If a new tool's shell integration appears to do nothing, check whether its setup command appended an init line below the sentinel and create a dedicated conf.d/.fish instead. ## Updating Pull the latest changes from the upstream repository without needing a configured git remote: config-update Fetch and apply the latest commits from upstream config-update --dry-run Preview available changes without applying them config-update --force Stash local changes, pull, then restore the stash The remote URL (https://git.rootiest.dev/rootiest/fish-config.git) is hard-coded, so this works on a fresh clone with no origin configured. All git output is suppressed. Run exec fish after a successful update to reload. --- # 10. PERSONALIZATION Sensitive credentials and machine-specific settings are kept out of version control in a private directory at ~/.config/.user-dots/fish/. Two files are sourced automatically by config.fish if they exist: ~/.config/.user-dots/fish/ ├── secrets.fish API keys, tokens, passwords, personal identifiers └── local.fish Machine-specific paths and environment variables fish_variables (auto-managed by fish) is excluded from this repo via .gitignore. Do not commit it. ## secrets.fish Store anything you would not commit to a public repo: API keys, auth tokens, passwords, and personal identifiers. set -gx MY_NAME "Your Name" set -gx MY_EMAIL "you@example.com" set -gx GPG_RECIPIENT "you@example.com" set -gx GITHUB_TOKEN ghp_yourTokenHere set -gx OPENAI_API_KEY sk-proj-yourKeyHere set -gx GITEA_TOKEN yourGiteaTokenHere set -gx GITEA_CHOSEN_LOGIN your.gitea.instance set -gx KOPIA_PASSWORD yourKopiaPassword ## local.fish Store paths and variables specific to one machine — things that would be wrong on any other system. # CDPATH — directories searched by cd set -gx CDPATH . /home/youruser/projects /home/youruser # Path to your shared .gitignore boilerplate set -gx GITIGNORE_BOILERPLATE ~/.config/git/gitignore_boilerplate # SSH shortcuts abbr -a sshr 'ssh you@your-server.local' abbr -a sshw 'ssh you@work-server.example.com' # Docker context shortcuts abbr -a dcr 'docker context use my-remote-server' abbr -a dcw 'docker context use work-server' Both files are sourced at the end of config.fish with an existence check so the public config works cleanly on any machine without the private repo. --- # 11. VIEWING THIS MANUAL ## With ov (recommended) help config ov renders the Markdown with syntax highlighting and section-based navigation. Space next section ^ previous section Alt+u toggle section list sidebar / search forward n / N next / previous search match g go to line number j interactive jump target (line, %, or 'section') q quit ## With bat bat --language=markdown --paging=always ~/.config/fish/docs/fish-config.md ## As a man page help config --man help config pkg --man Opens the compiled docs/fish-config.1 directly via man -l, bypassing the pager fallback chain. If a section keyword is given, the pager opens at the nearest matching heading. The symlink and MANPATH are also configured automatically on shell start for the standard invocation: man fish-config NOTE: fish-config (hyphen) is this config's man page. fish_config (underscore) is fish's built-in browser-based configuration tool — a completely separate command. Do not mix them up. ## In the browser (HTML) help config --html help config pkg --html Opens docs/html/index.html in the default web browser. If a section keyword is given, the browser opens directly at the matching anchor (resolved via docs/html/sitemap.json). Browser detection queries the system's x-scheme-handler/https MIME entry (via xdg-mime) to find the real browser binary, then falls back through known browser binaries (firefox, chromium, vivaldi, etc.), and finally xdg-open as a last resort. Set $fish_help_browser or $BROWSER to override. ## As a wiki The generated Markdown wiki lives in docs/wiki/. index.md provides the project overview and a full table of contents. Each section page has a navigation bar at the top linking to every other section. The wiki is auto-generated from this file by the CI pipeline on every push to main that changes docs/fish-config.md. ## Jumping to a section help config keybindings help config abbreviations help config pkg help config logs help config fish-deps The keyword is matched case-insensitively against section headings.
