Faster startup. Use internal bash globbing instead of external grep binary (adapter from Gentoo's `/etc/bash/bashrc` TERM checking). Insignificant on Linux, but on Cygwin this cuts startup time by 40 ms on my Core i7 laptop.
Summary:
Fix adapted from [@adamheins: fzf, vi-mode, and fixing delays][1].
[1]: https://adamheins.com/blog/fzf-vi-mode-and-fixing-delays
The basic problem is that
fzf presses <Esc> to enter vi-movement-mode
(as opposed to insert mode)
and then presses a bunch of keys to set up the buffer.
But the <Esc> keypress is also the prefix for a bunch of other commands,
so Bash will dutifully wait an excruciating half-second
before actually executing this command.
Instead, we bind <C-x><C-a>, which is unused by default
and seems reasonably unlikely to be custom-bound,
to be another way to enter vi-movement-mode;
this binding is unambiguous, so fzf can use it without delay.
This change was made by just `:s/\\e/\\C-x\\C-a/gc`
in the relevant section,
after adding the actual binding and comment at the top.
Notes:
- You can now override _fzf_compgen_path and _fzf_compgen_dir functions
to use custom commands such as ag instead of find for listing
completion candidates.
- The first argument is the base path to start traversal
- Removed file-only completion in bash, i.e. _fzf_file_completion.
Maintaining a list of commands that only expect files, not
directories, is cumbersome (there are too many) and error-prone.
TBD:
- Added $FZF_COMPLETION_DIR_COMMANDS to customize the list of commands
which use directory-only completion. The default is "cd pushd rmdir".
Not sure if it's the best approach to address the requirement, I'll
leave it as an undocumented feature.

This seems like a bug of fish, but sometimes when you select an item
fish complains:
"insertion mode switches can not be used when not in insertion mode"
This only happens when using tmux pane. Injecting a dummy command
somehow fixes the issue.
Instead of choosing one at initialization, choose the correct one
when it's actually called, so that the behavior is correct even after
resizing.
Bonus fixes for tmux with bash 4+:
- No extra space when cancelling CTRL-T.
- Fix cursor position problem in vi mode.
In the case that fzf-tmux returns a user-selected result but with a
non-zero exit status (which can happen if a function inside $PS1 returns
non-zero) this allows CTRL-R to continue working as expected.
Addresses #203 (Tranquility's comment)
* _fzf_complete is the helper function for custom completion
* _fzf_complete FZF_OPTS ARGS
* Reads the output of the source command instead of the command string
* In zsh, you can use pipe to feed the data into the function, but
it's not possible in bash as by doing so COMPREPLY is set from the
subshell and thus nullified
* Change the naming convention for consistency:
* _fzf_complete_COMMAND
e.g.
# pass completion suggested by @d4ndo (#362)
_fzf_complete_pass() {
_fzf_complete '+m' "$@" < <(
local pwdir=${PASSWORD_STORE_DIR-~/.password-store/}
local stringsize="${#pwdir}"
find "$pwdir" -name "*.gpg" -print |
cut -c "$((stringsize + 1))"- |
sed -e 's/\(.*\)\.gpg/\1/'
)
}
# Only in bash
complete -F _fzf_complete_pass -o default -o bashdefault pass
While in bash you can externally register custom completion functions
using `complete` command, it was not possible to do so in zsh without
changing completion.zsh as the name of the supported commands are
hard-coded within the code (See #362). With this commit, fzf-completion
of zsh will first look if `_fzf_COMMAND_completion` exists and calls the
function, so one can externally define completion functions for specific
commands.
This commit also tries to make the interface of (yet undocumented)
_fzf_list_completion helper function consistent across bash and zsh.
So the following code works both on bash and zsh.
_fzf_pass_completion() {
local pwdir=${PASSWORD_STORE_DIR-~/.password-store/}
local stringsize="${#pwdir}"
let "stringsize+=1"
_fzf_list_completion '+m' "$@" << "EOF"
find "$pwdir" -name "*.gpg" -print | cut -c "$stringsize"- | sed -e 's/\(.*\)\.gpg/\1/'
EOF
}
# Only on bash
complete -F _fzf_pass_completion -o default -o bashdefault pass
Note that the suggested convention and the interface are not yet final
and subject to change.

In addition to being simpler, it allows subsequent up/down history
or accept-line-and-down-history widgets to work.
Also allow for find being and alias if alias expansion
after command is enabled.
- Add `--history` option (e.g. fzf --history ~/.fzf.history)
- Add `--history-max` option for limiting the size of the file (default 1000)
- Add `previous-history` and `next-history` actions for `--bind`
- CTRL-P and CTRL-N are automatically remapped to these actions when
`--history` is used
Closes#249, #251
