Note

Fork that removes bindings that conflicts with fifc and natural-selection.

Auto-complete matching pairs in the Fish command line.

Automatically insert, erase, and skip matching pairs as you type in the command-line: (), [], {}, "", and ''. E.g., pressing ( inserts () and positions the cursor in between the parentheses. Hopefully.

• Insert matching pairs.

  $ echo ⎢ # Let's say ⎪ is the cursor!

  " 🥊

  $ echo "⎪"

• Erase pairs on backspace:

  $ echo "Hey⎪"

  Backspace 🥊🥊🥊

  $ echo "⎪"

  Backspace 🥊

  $ echo ⎪

• Skip over matched pairs:

  $ echo "Hey⎪"

  " 🥊

  $ echo "Hey"⎪

• Gracefully handle Tab completions for variables while inside double quotes.

  $ echo "$fish_color_⎪"

  Tab 🥊

  $ echo "$fish_color_⎪
  "$fish_color_autosuggestion   (Variable: '555' 'brblack')
  "$fish_color_cancel           (Variable: -r)
  "$fish_color_command          (Variable: blue)
  "$fish_color_comment          (Variable: red)
  ...
