* Expand string documentationGravatar Fabian Homborg2016-06-08
| | | | | Explain that globs need to match the entire string and a bit about our regular expressions.
* [doc] move regex example (#3045)Gravatar James Campos2016-05-20
| | | this example uses regex, so it should not be in the glob examples
* more doxygen lexicon changes to eliminate errorsGravatar Kurtis Rader2016-04-24
| | | | | | I noticed that Doxygen was also complaining about the "<asis>" and "<bs>" tags. So convert those to the backslash form like we did for "<outp>" in the previous commit.
* replace <outp> command with \outp in docsGravatar Kurtis Rader2016-04-23
| | | | | | | | | | Doxygen has been warning that `<outp>` and `</outp>` are not valid XML/HTML commands since commit cb6d5d76 on 20016-04-04. That's primarily because there is at present no way to tell Doxygen to recognize new XML/HTML tags. The actual errors look like this: ``` .../string.doxygen:187: warning: Unsupported xml/html tag </outp> found ``` I hate build errors since they a) cause needless concern, and b) make it harder to notice when I've introduced a new error. So switch from XML/C## style markup to Doxygen style markup for the "outp" annotation.
* Implement an --invert/-v for string match, like grep -v.Gravatar Aaron Gyes2016-04-08
| | | | Only lines that do not match the pattern are shown.
* Fix a couple of minor issues in string examplesGravatar Mark Griffiths2016-04-05
| | | | | | | Print correct return code in 2nd example Remove syntax colouring in \cg Signed-off-by: Mark Griffiths <mark@thebespokepixel.com>
* make the string man page more readableGravatar Kurtis Rader2016-04-04
| | | | | | | I didn't notice when I merged commit cb6d5d76c8232264f66c9a1db895d9dd69d77bc3 by thebespokepixel.com that it removed the explicit wrapping in the `string` man page. That makes `man string` harder to read so reinstate the explicit wrapping.
* update lexicon for latest docsGravatar Mark Griffiths2016-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Closes #2699 Fixes issues with: * 'string' function synopsis * Redirection display issues * Better file & path detection * Rendering of % & @ chars in both html and man * @ symbol in tutorial Improves robustness by implementing an @EOL marker to prevent hold buffer dumping extra chars after the end of an expression. Added new '{{' and '}}' meta-chars for when you want curly braces in a regexp that was previously tripping up the lexicon. Improve man/html presentation consistency for * string * printf * prompt_pwd * type Use cli-styling for 'practical' examples. Add <bs> tag for presenting content with preceding backslash.

* fix several build warningsGravatar Kurtis Rader2016-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes all but one of the warnings documented in issue #2685. The sole remaining warning is from the string split '' abc example in doc_src/string.txt. That example results in the man page displaying string split {} abc I leave it to someone else to fix that problem (I'll open an issue specifically for it since it took some effort to track down the source of the warning). Resolves issue #2685.
* Merge new string builtinGravatar Michael Steed2015-09-21
This adds the new builtin 'string' which supports various string manipulation and matching algorithms, including PCRE based regular expressions. Fixes #2296 Squashed commit of the following: commit 4c3eaeb6e57d76463e9683c327142b0aeafb92b8 Author: ridiculousfish <corydoras@ridiculousfish.com> Date: Sat Sep 12 12:51:30 2015 -0700 Remove testdata and doc dirs from pcre2 source commit b2a8b4b50f2398b204fb72cfe4b5ba77ece2e1ab Merge: 11c8a47 7974aab Author: ridiculousfish <corydoras@ridiculousfish.com> Date: Sat Sep 12 12:32:40 2015 -0700 Merge branch 'string' of git://github.com/msteed/fish-shell into string-test commit 7974aab6d367f999f1140ab34c2535cef5cf3b00 Author: Michael Steed <msteed@saltstack.com> Date: Fri Sep 11 13:00:02 2015 -0600 build pcre2 lib only, no docs commit eb20b43d2d96b7e6d24618158ce71078de83c40b Merge: 1a09e70 5f519cb Author: Michael Steed <msteed68@gmail.com> Date: Thu Sep 10 20:00:47 2015 -0600 Merge branch 'string' of github.com:msteed/fish-shell into string commit 1a09e709d028393c9e9e6dc9a84278f399a15f3d Author: Michael Steed <msteed68@gmail.com> Date: Thu Sep 10 19:58:24 2015 -0600 rebase on master & address the fallout commit a0ec9772cd1a0a548a501a7633be05dab4e5ee46 Author: Michael Steed <msteed68@gmail.com> Date: Thu Sep 10 19:26:45 2015 -0600 use fish's wildcard_match() for glob matching commit 64c25a01e3f7234f220ba13545cf658a7492b1a4 Author: Michael Steed <msteed68@gmail.com> Date: Thu Aug 27 08:19:23 2015 -0600 some fixes from review -
