Hey Liv,
Is there a way to get fish to do something only when run inside a terminal window?
sure, you could just check for `status --is-interactive` (see https://fishshell.com/docs/current/cmds/status.html). Btw, this is also how fish_greeting is called internally, see /usr/share/fish/functions/__fish_config_interactive.fish line 110. But from what I understand, fish_greeting should be the right place to do what you want.
But it turns out that things I put in fish_greeting are also triggered when I run a fish command alias via a keyboard shortcut, e.g. by using XFCE's keyboard settings dialogue to associate 'fish -c my-alias-here' with a key combination.
maybe XFCE invokes an interactive terminal to run that command? Because when I do `fish -c…` the greeting is not printed, but it is when I open another session with just `fish`. paul -- ❤ https://neo-layout.org ❤ https://useplaintext.email ❤ YY-MM-DD (ISO 8601/RFC 3339) � UTF-8 ☠ please don't TOFU! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style _______________________________________________ Fish-users mailing list Fish-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fish-users
