I've been playing with Fish 1.20 on OS X, and I've found some stuff that needs tweaking. The shell looks very interesting, though!
1) There's some odd lag when displaying the prompt. Every dozen or so commands, the prompt takes 6 or more seconds to redisplay after the command finishes executing. During these times, fish takes up a /lot/ of CPU. 25% or more. On a much slower Linux box, this isn't a problem. It doesn't seem to be related to any particular part of the prompt, as removing them doesn't affect the behaviour at all. I have no clue what's going on here, but it's really annoying. 2) OS X doesn't seem to have seq. One can, however, get "gseq" from darwinports. gseq seems to work fine for fish. 3) OS X doesn't seem to have libintl. fink, however, does. Again, fink's libintl /seems/ to work fine for fish. I'm not sure what the proper source for this is, though. This can be found by adding -I/sw/include to the compile flags and -L/sw/lib and -lintl to the linker flags. 4) util.h still has the "parse error before 'ssize_t'" problem. Adding #include <unistd.h> to the start of the file solves this problem. I'm not on-list, so please CC me on replies. -- -Nick Pilon ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
