helix key bindings for fish

Installation

Dependencies: fish >= 3.6², GNU tools¹, perl.

1. Copy functions directory as ~/.config/fish/functions.
2. Run fish_helix_key_bindings.

To undo, run fish_default_key_bindings.

¹ Should work with POSIX, but untested. Report any issues.

² fish >= 3.4 is sort of good enough. Clone fish-helix fish3.4 branch.

Tests

1. Install tmux and inotify-tools.
2. Run run-tests script

Configuration

fish_helix_command function provides some helix-like actions. Use it for custom bindings.

IMPORTANT!!!

When defining your own bindings using fish_helix_command, be aware that it can break stuff sometimes.

It is safe to define a binding consisting of a lone call to fish_helix_command. Calls to other functions and executables are allowed along with it, granted they don't mess with fish's commandline buffer.

Mixing multiple fish_helix_commandline and commandline calls in one binding MAY trigger issues. Nothing serious, but don't be surprised. Just test it.
