Description (last modified by slyfox) (diff)

Here comes a patch to make fish (http://fishshell.org/) work together with MC. As I am not an MC user myself I'm not sure if there are things broken, but it is at least a start.

merged as changeset:1b5ae972bbdfe4aaa7f94b4248fc030c5319993c

Pushed in slightly (cosmetic) modified form.
Patch looks absolutely noninvasive, so no reason not to vote for it :]

hm... I think, need to handle envirovement variable $fish_prompt_normal

I don't see correct prompt.

My test case:

$ export SHELL=/bin/fish
$ fish

slavaz@slavaz-nb /h/s> /path/to/test/mc

I see only '$' symbol as prompt. After pressing CTRL+O no subshel is running. Is I'm wrong or this bug?

maybe do this optional ?
--enable-fish

Replying to angel_il:

maybe do this optional ?
--enable-fish

For what purpose? What does new code break? Why do we need to uglify this tiny patch with more #ifdefs?

Nice shell prompt needs slightly more explorations.

Fish support is broken:

mc takes ages to start and starts with no subshell.

I solved it with simple script and I run this script istead of mc:

#!/bin/bash
SHELL=/bin/bash
mc
SHELL=/bin/fish
