fish - the friendly interactive shell
fish [OPTIONS] [-c command] [FILE [ARGUMENTS...]]
fish is a command-line shell written mainly with interactive
use in mind. The full manual is available in HTML by using the help
command from inside fish.
The following options are available:
- -c or --command=COMMANDS evaluate the specified commands instead of
reading from the commandline
- -C or --init-command=COMMANDS evaluate the specified commands after
reading the configuration, before running the command specified by -c
or reading interactive input
- -d or --debug-level=DEBUG_LEVEL specify the verbosity level of
fish. A higher number means higher verbosity. The default level is 1.
- -i or --interactive specify that fish is to run in interactive
mode
- -l or --login specify that fish is to run as a login shell
- -n or --no-execute do not execute any commands, only perform syntax
checking
- -p or --profile=PROFILE_FILE when fish exits, output timing
information on all executed commands to the specified file
- -v or --version display version and exit
- -D or --debug-stack-frames=DEBUG_LEVEL specify how many stack
frames to display when debug messages are written. The default is zero. A
value of 3 or 4 is usually sufficient to gain insight into how a given
debug call was reached but you can specify a value up to 128.
- -f or --features=FEATURES enables one or more feature flags
(separated by a comma). These are how fish stages changes that might break
scripts.
The fish exit status is generally the exit status of the last
foreground command. If fish is exiting because of a parse error, the exit
status is 127.
