Perhaps fish is not for you?
- ludwigschubert 6y agoI think it’s a fair ask - imagine using fish on a monochrome screen, for example. I could imagine using underlines or inverse text frontage autocomplete in such a theme/mode. Let’s see if someone here already knows such a theme, or gets inspired to make one. ;-)
- enriquto 6y ago> Perhaps fish is not for you? It nearly is! I love fish powerful completion, just find it annoying that it is triggered automatically. Also fish syntax seems saner than bourne's, and I love it (but miss process substitution from time to time). Unfortunately, I cannot stand the flashiness. With some work, I have managed to disable all colors by setting a lot of fish_color variables in my configuration file. But the auto-completion drains me after a few minutes of use. As if you are speaking to somebody and they complete all your sentences! Even if the completion is correct, isn't that extremely annoying?
- hibbelig 6y agoI think what you are talking about are the fish "suggestions". By default, that text is greyed out and if you like the suggestion, you can cursor-right (or ctrl-f) to accept it. But if you don't like the suggestion, you just keep typing. If my hunch (that you are talking about the suggestions) is correct, then perhaps it works to set it to white on white or black on black, or whatever matches your color scheme. It will still be there, but you won't see it :-). (But you would get it after cursor-right or end or ctrl-f or ctrl-e...)
