fish (Friendly Interactive Shell)
fish is a user friendly command line shell for UNIX-like systems. fish
includes case insensitive completions, a multiline editing system, a new
and simplified key binding system, and a large number of command
specific completions.
This package will potentially conflict with the /usr/games/fish binary
from the y/bsdgames package. In a stock installation with default PATH
ordering, /usr/bin should be checked before /usr/games, so it shouldn't
be an issue, but we thought it was worth noting just in case.
sphinx is an optional dependency.
NOTES:
This SlackBuild automatically adds fish to /etc/shells.
To use fish as your login shell, run this command:
$ chsh -s /usr/bin/fish
To remove it from the /etc/shells (in case of fish removal), run:
$ su -c "sed -ri '\|^/usr/bin/fish$|d' /etc/shells"
To use fish_update_completions see README.Slackware from man-db
SlackBuild or typically (as normal user or root):
$ fish
$ source /etc/profile.d/man-db.sh
$ fish_update_completions
If you are upgrading from version 3.0.0 or before, please also review
