Parses a function's own man-page comment header at call time and prints it as a help menu on stdout, so the documentation that already generates Section 5 of the manual becomes reachable from the shell. Reads the .fish source rather than the generated docs/fish-config.md, so it cannot go stale between a header edit and a docs rebuild. Walks backwards from the `function` line to collect the header, which resolves multi-header files (fish-deps, gi, y) without reimplementing manualtools._block_identity. Returns 1 only when argv[1] is not a help flag; every other path prints and returns 0. A return of 1 hands control back to the caller's body. Nothing calls it yet.

# SYNOPSIS
|
|
# __fish_help_header <name> [args...]
|
|
#
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
# Prints <name>'s man-page comment header as a help menu on stdout.
|
|
# Intended as the first statement of a user-facing function's body:
|
|
#
|
|
# __fish_help_header (status current-function) $argv; and return 0
|
|
#
|
|
# Returns 1 -- printing nothing -- ONLY when args[1] is not a help flag.
|
|
# Every other outcome, including an unreadable or headerless source
|
|
# file, prints something and returns 0. That asymmetry is load-bearing:
|
|
# a return of 1 means "run the real body", and the real body of upgrade
|
|
# is `paru -Syu --noconfirm`. A parse failure must never return 1.
|
|
#
|
|
# Only args[1] is inspected, never the whole list. wake-lock, bkg,
|
|
# split and spwin take a command to run as their arguments, so
|
|
# scanning all of $argv would make `wake-lock rsync --help` print
|
|
# wake-lock's own help instead of running rsync.
|
|
#
|
|
# The header is read from the caller's source at call time rather than
|
|
# from the generated manual, so it cannot go stale between a header
|
|
# edit and a docs rebuild.
|
|
#
|
|
# ARGUMENTS
|
|
# name The calling function's name, from (status current-function)
|
|
# args... The caller's $argv, forwarded verbatim
|
|
#
|
|
# EXIT STATUS
|
|
# 0 Help was printed, including the degraded fallback
|
|
# 1 args[1] is not -h/--help; the caller should carry on
|
|
#
|
|
# EXAMPLE
|
|
# __fish_help_header (status current-function) $argv; and return 0
|
|
#
|
|
# NOTES
|
|
# Section labels are those of the manual SSOT parser in
|
|
# docs/manualtools.py. CATEGORY, COMPONENT and DEPENDENCIES are build
|
|
# metadata and are suppressed; SYNOPSIS renders as USAGE and EXAMPLE as
|
|
# EXAMPLES.
