I sometimes call fish from within emacs, with =M-x ansi-term=. In this case,
the variable =TERM= needs to have the value =eterm-color=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish

When accessing from a remote machine our computer from Emacs, tramp needs a
precise shell appearance: a simple =$= followed by a space after which to put
the commands it needs to execute, and nothing else. Due to this, lets
deactivate and redefine some of the functions defining the appearance of
fish.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
if test "$TERM" = "dumb"
function fish_prompt
echo "\$ "
end
function fish_right_prompt; end
function fish_greeting; end
function fish_title; end
end

:HEADER-ARGS: :tangle config.fish :exports code
:END:
Now, there is only one function I modify when it comes to the appearance of
fish when Im the one using it: I simply “delete” the =fish_greeting=
function.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
function fish_greeting; end
#+END_SRC

:END:
Some global variables might sometimes be needed and need to be modified. This
is for example the case with my =PATH= variable in which I add Rusts Cargos
binaries, Gos binaries and my own executables. And of course, dont forget
to add the already existing =PATH=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
set -gx PATH $HOME/.local/bin $HOME/go/bin $HOME/.cargo/bin $PATH
#+END_SRC
Sometimes, software will rely on =SUDO_ASKPASS= to get a GUI from which it
can get the sudo password. So, lets declare it.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
set -gx SUDO_ASKPASS ~/.local/bin/askpass
#+END_SRC
Now, lets declare our editor of choice, EmacsClient. Now, we want it to run
in the terminal, since it will most often be just quick edits, nothing too
heavy, if it is called from the =EDITOR= variable (from Git, for example).
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
set -gx EDITOR emacsclient -c -nw
#+END_SRC
Finally, some development packages require the =PKG_CONFIG_PATH= to be set,
so lets do so.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
set -gx PKG_CONFIG_PATH /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/ $PKG_CONFIG_PATH
#+END_SRC

I sometimes call fish from within emacs, with =M-x ansi-term=. In this case,
the variable =TERM= needs to have the value =eterm-color=.
Here I have some abbreviations which are quite useful when performing some
system monitoring. With =df=, we can get an overview of our filesystem
usage, while with =diskspace= we get some more precise information.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
if test -n "$EMACS"
set -x TERM eterm-color
end
abbr df 'df -H'
abbr diskspace 'sudo df -h | grep -E "sd|lv|Size"'
#+END_SRC
** Tramp remote access
=meminfo= is a call to =free= with sane defaults.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr meminfo 'free -m -l -t'
#+END_SRC
Similar to =meminfo=, we also have =gpumeminfo= so we can get a quick look
at the memory-related logs of our X session.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr gpumeminfo 'grep -i --color memory /var/log/Xorg.0.log'
#+END_SRC
I also declared =cpuinfo= an alias of =lscpu= in order to keep consistent
with =meminfo=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr cpuinfo lscpu
#+END_SRC
=pscpu= gives us information on what the CPU is running right now, and
=pscpu10= limits that to the top 10 threads.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr pscpu 'ps auxf | sort -nr -k 3'
abbr pscpu10 'ps auxf | sort -nr -k 3 | head -10'
#+END_SRC
Similarly, =psmem= gives us information on the memory usage of the current
threads, and =psmem10= only the ten most important threads in terms of
memory usage.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr psmem 'ps auxf | sort -nr -k 4'
abbr psmem10 'ps auxf | sort -nr -k 4 | head -10'

I added some of these abbreviations due to how often I have to write the
whole thing.
** Regular fish shell appearance
*** Package mangaement
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-281a59aa-4ea0-47ab-a4cc-33fff8d38165
:END:
The first command is =remove= which removes a package from my system, as
well as its dependencies no longer needed.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr remove 'sudo pacman -Rscnd'
#+END_SRC
And if I want to install something, I just have to type =install=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr install 'sudo pacman -Sy'
#+END_SRC
But if I just want to run =pacman= as sudo, then I could always just type
=p=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr p 'sudo -A pacman'
#+END_SRC
Sometimes, I just want to purge my package managers cache, be it
=pacman='s or =yay='s. This is why I simply type =purge=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr purge 'yay -Sc'
#+END_SRC
And if I want to simply seach among the =pacman= repos, I can type
=search=. Otherwise, if I want to include AUR results, Ill use =yay=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr search 'pacman -Ss'
#+END_SRC
To update everything from the official repos, Ill sometimes type =update=
instead of the full command.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr update 'sudo pacman -Syu'
#+END_SRC
*** Service management
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-3a734119-ccee-4cdf-b04c-d55a37dea571
:END:
I dont have the muscle memory of =systemctl=. So instead, I simply type
=c= when I want to do something user service related.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr s 'systemctl --user'
#+END_SRC
And if I want to manipulate system services, I can instead type a simple
capital =S=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr S 'sudo systemctl'
#+END_SRC
** Development
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-a8434b29-c146-4141-b8f8-1b446c791907
:CUSTOM_ID: h-32ae38a2-41ad-438e-b619-220a63166115
:END:
Now, there is only one function I modify when it comes to the appearance of
fish when Im the one using it: I simply “delete” the =fish_greeting=
function.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
function fish_greeting; end
#+END_SRC
A good amount of these commands are development related, especially when it
comes to compilation or Docker.
** Global variables
*** CMake
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-887c87aa-b100-4b27-9006-778fd7e3329c
:END:
I have the following abbreviations so I can quickly run CMake and create a
configuration for debug or release profiles.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr cdebug 'cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug'
abbr crelease 'cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release'
#+END_SRC
*** Compilation
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-0beb47e5-d76a-4037-8f58-e8de141e3761
:END:
By default, I set =clang=, =clang++=, =gcc= and =g++= to the latest
standard and with the =-Wall= flag activated.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :tangle
abbr clang 'clang -Wall'
abbr clang++ 'clang++ -Wall'
abbr g++ 'g++ -Wall -std=c++17'
abbr gcc 'gcc -Wall -std=c18'
#+END_SRC
*** Docker
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-91c7ff90-7b43-4802-be69-5d102281c6d3
:END:
And of course, when it comes to Docker Compose, I dont have time to write
the full command, so I use these instead.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr dc docker-compose
abbr dcd 'docker-compose down'
abbr dcr 'docker-compose run --rm'
abbr dcu 'docker-compose up'
abbr dcub 'docker-compose up --build'
#+END_SRC
*** Git
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-e72347d4-590e-448c-bc33-0a70fa8ab35b
:END:
And lets face it: we all at one point just wanted to commit our code
without thinking about the message, to just get over with it. Dont worry,
I got you covered.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :tangle
abbr randcommit 'git commit -m (curl -s whatthecommit.com/index.txt)'
#+END_SRC
*** Prolog
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-cbb6c31e-faaa-48c3-a83a-d1f143fdcb8d
:END:
When I launch =swipl=, I prefer to have my terminal cleaned before and
after it runs, I find it more clean.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr swipl 'clear && swipl -q && clear'
#+END_SRC
*** Text editors
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-51155e06-872d-4a12-9bf7-ae5eabc256ad
:END:
I greatly prefer to use Emacsclient as my main text editor; Emacs has
basically all I need. So, its only normal I have an abbreviation to launch
a new instance of it.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr e 'emacsclient -c'
#+END_SRC
However, in a graphical environment, this will launch a new graphical
window of Emacs. To launch a terminal instance, Ill use =enw= (=nw= stands
for the option “nowindow” =-nw= of Emacs).
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr enw 'emacsclient -c -nw'
#+END_SRC
I also have the abbreviation =vi= which refers to =vim=. I really should
learn =vi=, but I also really dont feel like it.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr vi vim
#+END_SRC
** LaTeX
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-0eff37da-af9f-4546-8ad3-201961a2200f
:CUSTOM_ID: h-a8f8a707-90d7-4784-982d-d959b183148e
:END:
Some global variables might sometimes be needed and need to be modified. This
is for example the case with my =PATH= variable in which I add Rusts Cargos
binaries, Gos binaries and my own executables. And of course, dont forget
to add the already existing =PATH=.
Yes, although I use org-mode, I still have some use for LaTeX, especially
when it comes to PDF exports of my org files. Hence why I use the LaTeX
package manager. It is recommended to use =tllocalmgr= instead of =tlmgr=,
but I can never remember the command, and the latter is faster to type, so
time for an abbreviation.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
set -gx PATH $HOME/.local/bin $HOME/go/bin $HOME/.cargo/bin $PATH
abbr tlmgr tllocalmgr
#+END_SRC
Sometimes, software will rely on =SUDO_ASKPASS= to get a GUI from which it
can get the sudo password. So, lets declare it.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
set -gx SUDO_ASKPASS ~/.local/bin/askpass
abbr texhash 'sudo texhash'
#+END_SRC
Now, lets declare our editor of choice, EmacsClient. Now, we want it to run
in the terminal, since it will most often be just quick edits, nothing too
heavy, if it is called from the =EDITOR= variable (from Git, for example).
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
set -gx EDITOR emacsclient -c -nw
#+END_SRC
Finally, some development packages require the =PKG_CONFIG_PATH= to be set,
so lets do so.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
set -gx PKG_CONFIG_PATH /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/ $PKG_CONFIG_PATH
#+END_SRC
** Abbreviations
** Some security measures
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-740bd904-3e32-4c09-b0a4-bde16ae2e116
:CUSTOM_ID: h-dd97ea71-c43f-4b79-8bb7-1f857284b1b4
:END:
*** System monitoring
Some commands can be quite dangerous when not used properly, which is why I
added default flags and options so I can get warnings before things get
ugly.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr cp 'cp -i'
abbr ln 'ln -i'
abbr lns 'ln -si'
abbr mv 'mv -i'
abbr rm 'rm -I'
abbr rmd 'rm --preserve-root -Ir'
abbr rmdf 'rm --preserve-root -Irf'
abbr rmf 'rm --preserve-root -If'
#+END_SRC
The =-i= and =-I= add prompts in case we might not want to do what we asked
the shell to do. Notice =lns= which creates symlinks, =rmd= which removes
directories, =rmf= which forces deletion, and =rmdf= which forces the
delition of a directory. Notice also the =--preserve-root= which will
prevent me from accidentally removing the root folder. I added the same
option to =chgrp=, =chmod=, and =chown=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr chgrp 'chgrp --preserve-root'
abbr chmod 'chmod --preserve-root'
abbr chown 'chown --preserve-root'
#+END_SRC
** Typos
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-4c5a03cd-20a8-437e-87b7-af990780084e
:END:
Lets admit it, we all make typos from time to time in the shell, and some
are recurrent enough we make abbreviations or aliases of the correct
command. Well, I have some of my abbreviations which were make exactly
because of this.
Sometimes for some reasons, my brain makes me write =clean= instead of
=clear=. So, lets just replace the former by the latter.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr clean clear
#+END_SRC
Im also very bad at typing =exit=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr exi exit
abbr exti exit
#+END_SRC
And sometimes I suck at typing =htop=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr hotp htop
#+END_SRC
** Misc
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-3a237ec0-c535-42c7-9c60-3d083745b643
:END:
Finally, some miscellaneous abbreviations that dont really fit into any of
the above categories.
*** Sudo
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-ec910a8c-9154-48a4-b4cd-df28cb4e54d9
:CUSTOM_ID: h-0955e2fc-ec25-41b6-814a-929fa3718dda
:END:
Here I have some abbreviations which are quite useful when performing some
system monitoring. With =df=, we can get an overview of our filesystem
usage, while with =diskspace= we get some more precise information.
First, I make it so that =sudo= comes with the =-A= switch in order to call
my custom graphical script for getting my password (see
[[file:~/.local/bin/askpass][.local/bin/askpass]]). I also made it so =please= is an equivalent to =sudo
-A= as a joke.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr df 'df -H'
abbr diskspace 'sudo df -h | grep -E "sd|lv|Size"'
abbr sudo 'sudo -A'
abbr please 'sudo -A'
#+END_SRC
=meminfo= is a call to =free= with sane defaults.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr meminfo 'free -m -l -t'
#+END_SRC

at the memory-related logs of our X session.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr gpumeminfo 'grep -i --color memory /var/log/Xorg.0.log'
#+END_SRC
I also declared =cpuinfo= an alias of =lscpu= in order to keep consistent
with =meminfo=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr cpuinfo lscpu
#+END_SRC
=pscpu= gives us information on what the CPU is running right now, and
=pscpu10= limits that to the top 10 threads.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr pscpu 'ps auxf | sort -nr -k 3'
abbr pscpu10 'ps auxf | sort -nr -k 3 | head -10'
#+END_SRC
Similarly, =psmem= gives us information on the memory usage of the current
threads, and =psmem10= only the ten most important threads in terms of
memory usage.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr psmem 'ps auxf | sort -nr -k 4'

I greatly prefer to use Emacsclient as my main text editor; Emacs has
basically all I need. So, its only normal I have an abbreviation to launch
a new instance of it.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr e 'emacsclient -c'
#+END_SRC
However, in a graphical environment, this will launch a new graphical
window of Emacs. To launch a terminal instance, Ill use =enw= (=nw= stands
for the option “nowindow” =-nw= of Emacs).
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr enw 'emacsclient -c -nw'
#+END_SRC
I also have the abbreviation =vi= which refers to =vim=. I really should
learn =vi=, but I also really dont feel like it.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr vi vim
#+END_SRC

Yes, although I use org-mode, I still have some use for LaTeX, especially
when it comes to PDF exports of my org files. Hence why I use the LaTeX
package manager. It is recommended to use =tllocalmgr= instead of =tlmgr=,
but I can never remember the command, and the latter is faster to type, so
time for an abbreviation.
When I want to download a song from YouTube, Ill just use the command
=flac videoIdentifier= to get it through =youtube-dl=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr tlmgr tllocalmgr
abbr flac 'youtube-dl -x --audio-format flac --audio-quality 0'

:END:
Some commands can be quite dangerous when not used properly, which is why I
added default flags and options so I can get warnings before things get
ugly.
When it comes to mpv, I do not want to force it to open a graphical window
if for example I want to listen to an audio file. I also do not want any
border on that window. So, I declared this abbreviation.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr cp 'cp -i'
abbr ln 'ln -i'
abbr lns 'ln -si'
abbr mv 'mv -i'
abbr rm 'rm -I'
abbr rmd 'rm --preserve-root -Ir'
abbr rmdf 'rm --preserve-root -Irf'
abbr rmf 'rm --preserve-root -If'
#+END_SRC
The =-i= and =-I= add prompts in case we might not want to do what we asked
the shell to do. Notice =lns= which creates symlinks, =rmd= which removes
directories, =rmf= which forces deletion, and =rmdf= which forces the
delition of a directory. Notice also the =--preserve-root= which will
prevent me from accidentally removing the root folder. I added the same
option to =chgrp=, =chmod=, and =chown=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr chgrp 'chgrp --preserve-root'
abbr chmod 'chmod --preserve-root'
abbr chown 'chown --preserve-root'
abbr mpv 'mpv --no-border --force-window=no'

Lets admit it, we all make typos from time to time in the shell, and some
are recurrent enough we make abbreviations or aliases of the correct
command. Well, I have some of my abbreviations which were make exactly
because of this.
Sometimes for some reasons, my brain makes me write =clean= instead of
=clear=. So, lets just replace the former by the latter.
It seems its just like many other people, but I cannot for the life of me
remember the syntax of =tar=. So, I made the following abbreviations, and
one day hopefully, after seeing the abbreviations expansion over and over
Ill remember the command like I did for the abbreviation of =remove= (see
[[#h-281a59aa-4ea0-47ab-a4cc-33fff8d38165][Package management]]).
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr clean clear
abbr compress 'tar -czf'
abbr untar 'tar -xvzf'
#+END_SRC
Im also very bad at typing =exit=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr exi exit
abbr exti exit
#+END_SRC
And sometimes I suck at typing =htop=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr hotp htop
#+END_SRC

:END:
Finally, some miscellaneous abbreviations that dont really fit into any of
the above categories.
Some sane default options for =feh=, including auto-zoom to fit the picture
to the window, a borderless window, and again scale the image to fit the
window geometry.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr feh 'feh -Zx.'

**** Sudo
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: h-0955e2fc-ec25-41b6-814a-929fa3718dda

First, I make it so that =sudo= comes with the =-A= switch in order to call
my custom graphical script for getting my password (see
[[file:~/.local/bin/askpass][.local/bin/askpass]]). I also made it so =please= is an equivalent to =sudo
-A= as a joke.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
abbr sudo 'sudo -A'
abbr please 'sudo -A'

files in a directory as a list with detailed, human-readable information.

I also find it more intuitive and faster to just write =hist= instead of
=history=, so lets declare that.
