I expect a backlashed newline to be the same thing as a real newline except it doesn't cuase the command to exit right now. But I may be in a minority, dunno. Most shellscript languages seem to do what you expect, but e.g. CPP does what I expect. > - I think I have a bug on Macos X with macport fish 1.22.3 r{0,1} : > "echo (seq 3)" or "for i in (seq 3)..." will 'freeze' fish while in > interactive mode (so in eval, but not with fish -c).

I can't reproduce this on my system and I don't have easy access to any OS X system at the moment.

If you are writing a command which becomes too long to fit on the line, the prompt will automatically move to a line of it's own, giving the shellscript code the entire screen width to itself. This is of course not the same thing, but hopefully it's good enough until someone implements a right hand side prompt. Personally, I've found it to be a very nice feature. > 2)<tab><tab> picking one from the proposed completions and rotates, > when I'm really lazy taping.... I've though a lot about that. I definitly want some interface where you can pick one of the available completions, but I'm not really sure that is the right interface. Perhaps something more like a completion pager that allows you to select one completion. Different ideas have been tossed around here on the list. Not sure where it will lead, but I hope we'll get _something_ one of these days. :-/ > > Otherwise, I really like the ideas of homogenity, minimality and > extensibility by keeping most things as extension in shell scripts.
