CHANGELOG ========= 0.50.0 ------ - Search performance optimization. You can observe 50%+ improvement in some scenarios. ``` $ rg --line-number --no-heading --smart-case . > $DATA $ wc < $DATA 5520118 26862362 897487793 $ hyperfine -w 1 -L bin fzf-0.49.0,fzf-7ce6452,fzf-a5447b8,fzf '{bin} --filter "///" < $DATA | head -30' Summary fzf --filter "///" < $DATA | head -30 ran 1.16 ± 0.03 times faster than fzf-a5447b8 --filter "///" < $DATA | head -30 1.23 ± 0.03 times faster than fzf-7ce6452 --filter "///" < $DATA | head -30 1.52 ± 0.03 times faster than fzf-0.49.0 --filter "///" < $DATA | head -30 ``` - Added `jump` and `jump-cancel` events that are triggered when leaving `jump` mode ```sh # Default behavior fzf --bind space:jump # Same as jump-accept action fzf --bind space:jump,jump:accept # Accept on jump, abort on cancel fzf --bind space:jump,jump:accept,jump-cancel:abort # Change header on jump-cancel fzf --bind 'space:change-header(Type jump label)+jump,jump-cancel:change-header:Jump cancelled' ``` - Added a new environment variable `$FZF_KEY` exported to the child processes. It's the name of the last key pressed. ```sh fzf --bind 'space:jump,jump:accept,jump-cancel:transform:[[ $FZF_KEY =~ ctrl-c ]] && echo abort' ``` - fzf can be built with profiling options. See [BUILD.md](BUILD.md) for more information. - Bug fixes 0.49.0 ------ - Ingestion performance improved by around 40% (more or less depending on options) - `--info=hidden` and `--info=inline-right` will no longer hide the horizontal separator by default. This gives you more flexibility in customizing the layout. ```sh fzf --border --info=inline-right fzf --border --info=inline-right --separator ═ fzf --border --info=inline-right --no-separator fzf --border --info=hidden fzf --border --info=hidden --separator ━ fzf --border --info=hidden --no-separator ``` - Added two environment variables exported to the child processes - `FZF_PREVIEW_LABEL` - `FZF_BORDER_LABEL` ```sh # Use the current value of $FZF_PREVIEW_LABEL to determine which actions to perform git ls-files | fzf --header 'Press CTRL-P to change preview mode' \ --bind='ctrl-p:transform:[[ $FZF_PREVIEW_LABEL =~ cat ]] \ && echo "change-preview(git log --color=always \{})+change-preview-label([[ log ]])" \ || echo "change-preview(bat --color=always \{})+change-preview-label([[ cat ]])"' ``` - Renamed `track` action to `track-current` to highlight the difference between the global tracking state set by `--track` and a one-off tracking action - `track` is still available as an alias - Added `untrack-current` and `toggle-track-current` actions - `*-current` actions are no-op when the global tracking state is set - Bug fixes and minor improvements 0.48.1 ------ - CTRL-T and ALT-C bindings can be disabled by setting `FZF_CTRL_T_COMMAND` and `FZF_ALT_C_COMMAND` to empty strings respectively when sourcing the script ```sh # bash FZF_CTRL_T_COMMAND= FZF_ALT_C_COMMAND= eval "$(fzf --bash)" # zsh FZF_CTRL_T_COMMAND= FZF_ALT_C_COMMAND= eval "$(fzf --zsh)" # fish fzf --fish | FZF_CTRL_T_COMMAND= FZF_ALT_C_COMMAND= source ``` - Setting the variables after sourcing the script will have no effect - Bug fixes 0.48.0 ------ - Shell integration scripts are now embedded in the fzf binary. This simplifies the distribution, and the users are less likely to have problems caused by using incompatible scripts and binaries. - bash ```sh # Set up fzf key bindings and fuzzy completion eval "$(fzf --bash)" ``` - zsh ```sh # Set up fzf key bindings and fuzzy completion eval "$(fzf --zsh)" ``` - fish ```fish # Set up fzf key bindings fzf --fish | source ``` - Added options for customizing the behavior of the built-in walker | Option | Description | Default | | --- | --- | --- | | `--walker=OPTS` | Walker options (`[file][,dir][,follow][,hidden]`) | `file,follow,hidden` | | `--walker-root=DIR` | Root directory from which to start walker | `.` | | `--walker-skip=DIRS` | Comma-separated list of directory names to skip | `.git,node_modules` | - Examples ```sh # Built-in walker is only used by standalone fzf when $FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND is not set unset FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND fzf # default: --walker=file,follow,hidden --walker-root=. --walker-skip=.git,node_modules fzf --walker=file,dir,hidden,follow --walker-skip=.git,node_modules,target # Walker options in $FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS export FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS="--walker=file,dir,hidden,follow --walker-skip=.git,node_modules,target" fzf # Reading from STDIN; --walker is ignored seq 100 | fzf --walker=dir # Reading from $FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND; --walker is ignored export FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND='seq 100' fzf --walker=dir ``` - Shell integration scripts have been updated to use the built-in walker with these new options and they are now much faster out of the box. 0.47.0 ------ - Replaced ["the default find command"][find] with a built-in directory walker to simplify the code and to achieve better performance and consistent behavior across platforms. This doesn't affect you if you have `$FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND` set. - Breaking changes: - Unlike [the previous "find" command][find], the new traversal code will list hidden files, but hidden directories will still be ignored - No filtering of `devtmpfs` or `proc` types - Traversal is parallelized, so the order of the entries will be different each time - You may wonder why fzf implements directory walker anyway when it's a filter program following the [Unix philosophy][unix]. But fzf has had [the walker code for years][walker] to tackle the performance problem on Windows. And I decided to use the same approach on different platforms as well for the benefits listed above. - Built-in walker is using the excellent [charlievieth/fastwalk][fastwalk] library, which easily outperforms its competitors and supports safely following symlinks. - Added `$FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS_FILE` to allow managing default options in a file - See [#3618](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/pull/3618) - Option precedence from lower to higher 1. Options read from `$FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS_FILE` 1. Options from `$FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS` 1. Options from command-line arguments - Bug fixes and improvements [find]: https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/blob/0.46.1/src/constants.go#L60-L64 [walker]: https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/pull/1847 [fastwalk]: https://github.com/charlievieth/fastwalk [unix]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_philosophy 0.46.1 ------ - Bug fixes and improvements - Fixed Windows binaries - Downgraded Go version to 1.20 to support older versions of Windows - https://tip.golang.org/doc/go1.21#windows - Updated [rivo/uniseg](https://github.com/rivo/uniseg) dependency to v0.4.6 0.46.0 ------ - Added two new events - `result` - triggered when the filtering for the current query is complete and the result list is ready - `resize` - triggered when the terminal size is changed - fzf now exports the following environment variables to the child processes | Variable | Description | | --- | --- | | `FZF_LINES` | Number of lines fzf takes up excluding padding and margin | | `FZF_COLUMNS` | Number of columns fzf takes up excluding padding and margin | | `FZF_TOTAL_COUNT` | Total number of items | | `FZF_MATCH_COUNT` | Number of matched items | | `FZF_SELECT_COUNT` | Number of selected items | | `FZF_QUERY` | Current query string | | `FZF_PROMPT` | Prompt string | | `FZF_ACTION` | The name of the last action performed | - This allows you to write sophisticated transformations like so ```sh # Script to dynamically resize the preview window transformer=' # 1 line for info, another for prompt, and 2 more lines for preview window border lines=$(( FZF_LINES - FZF_MATCH_COUNT - 4 )) if [[ $FZF_MATCH_COUNT -eq 0 ]]; then echo "change-preview-window:hidden" elif [[ $lines -gt 3 ]]; then echo "change-preview-window:$lines" elif [[ $FZF_PREVIEW_LINES -ne 3 ]]; then echo "change-preview-window:3" fi ' seq 10000 | fzf --preview 'seq {} 10000' --preview-window up \ --bind "result:transform:$transformer" \ --bind "resize:transform:$transformer" ``` - And we're phasing out `{fzf:prompt}` and `{fzf:action}` - Changed [mattn/go-runewidth](https://github.com/mattn/go-runewidth) dependency to [rivo/uniseg](https://github.com/rivo/uniseg) for accurate results - Set `--ambidouble` if your terminal displays ambiguous width characters (e.g. box-drawing characters for borders) as 2 columns - `RUNEWIDTH_EASTASIAN=1` is still respected for backward compatibility, but it's recommended that you use this new option instead - Bug fixes 0.45.0 ------ - Added `transform` action to conditionally perform a series of actions ```sh # Disallow selecting an empty line echo -e "1. Hello\n2. Goodbye\n\n3. Exit" | fzf --height '~100%' --reverse --header 'Select one' \ --bind 'enter:transform:[[ -n {} ]] && echo accept || echo "change-header:Invalid selection"' # Move cursor past the empty line echo -e "1. Hello\n2. Goodbye\n\n3. Exit" | fzf --height '~100%' --reverse --header 'Select one' \ --bind 'enter:transform:[[ -n {} ]] && echo accept || echo "change-header:Invalid selection"' \ --bind 'focus:transform:[[ -n {} ]] && exit; [[ {fzf:action} =~ up$ ]] && echo up || echo down' # A single key binding to toggle between modes fd --type file | fzf --prompt 'Files> ' \ --header 'CTRL-T: Switch between Files/Directories' \ --bind 'ctrl-t:transform:[[ ! {fzf:prompt} =~ Files ]] && echo "change-prompt(Files> )+reload(fd --type file)" || echo "change-prompt(Directories> )+reload(fd --type directory)"' ``` - Added placeholder expressions - `{fzf:action}` - The name of the last action performed - `{fzf:prompt}` - Prompt string (including ANSI color codes) - `{fzf:query}` - Synonym for `{q}` - Added support for negative height ```sh # Terminal height minus 1, so you can still see the command line fzf --height=-1 ``` - This handles a terminal resize better than `--height=$(($(tput lines) - 1))` - Added `accept-or-print-query` action that acts like `accept` but prints the current query when there's no match for the query ```sh # You can make CTRL-R paste the current query when there's no match export FZF_CTRL_R_OPTS='--bind enter:accept-or-print-query' ``` - Note that there are alternative ways to implement the same strategy ```sh # 'become' is apparently more versatile but it's not available on Windows. export FZF_CTRL_R_OPTS='--bind "enter:become:if [ -z {} ]; then echo {q}; else echo {}; fi"' # Using the new 'transform' action export FZF_CTRL_R_OPTS='--bind "enter:transform:[ -z {} ] && echo print-query || echo accept"' ``` - Added `show-header` and `hide-header` actions - Bug fixes 0.44.1 ------ - Fixed crash when preview window is hidden on `focus` event 0.44.0 ------ - (Experimental) Sixel image support in preview window (not available on Windows) - [bin/fzf-preview.sh](bin/fzf-preview.sh) is added to demonstrate how to display an image using Kitty image protocol or Sixel. You can use it like so: ```sh fzf --preview='fzf-preview.sh {}' ``` - (Experimental) iTerm2 inline image protocol support in preview window (not available on Windows) ```sh # Using https://iterm2.com/utilities/imgcat fzf --preview 'imgcat -W $FZF_PREVIEW_COLUMNS -H $FZF_PREVIEW_LINES {}' ``` - HTTP server can be configured to accept remote connections ```sh # FZF_API_KEY is required for a non-localhost listen address export FZF_API_KEY="$(head -c 32 /dev/urandom | base64)" fzf --listen 0.0.0.0:6266 ``` - To allow remote process execution, use `--listen-unsafe` instead (`execute*`, `reload*`, `become`, `preview`, `change-preview`, `transform-*`) ```sh fzf --listen-unsafe 0.0.0.0:6266 ``` - Bug fixes 0.43.0 ------ - (Experimental) Added support for Kitty image protocol in the preview window (not available on Windows) ```sh fzf --preview=' if file --mime-type {} | grep -qF image/; then # --transfer-mode=memory is the fastest option but if you want fzf to be able # to redraw the image on terminal resize or on 'change-preview-window', # you need to use --transfer-mode=stream. kitty icat --clear --transfer-mode=memory --unicode-placeholder --stdin=no --place=${FZF_PREVIEW_COLUMNS}x${FZF_PREVIEW_LINES}@0x0 {} | sed \$d else bat --color=always {} fi ' ``` - (Experimental) `--listen` server can report program state in JSON format (`GET /`) ```sh # fzf server started in "headless" mode fzf --listen 6266 2> /dev/null # Get program state curl localhost:6266 | jq . # Increase the number of items returned (default: 100) curl localhost:6266?limit=1000 | jq . ``` - `--listen` server can be secured by setting `$FZF_API_KEY` environment variable. ```sh export FZF_API_KEY="$(head -c 32 /dev/urandom | base64)" # Server fzf --listen 6266 # Client curl localhost:6266 -H "x-api-key: $FZF_API_KEY" -d 'change-query(yo)' ``` - Added `toggle-header` action - Added mouse events for `--bind` - `scroll-up` (bound to `up`) - `scroll-down` (bound to `down`) - `shift-scroll-up` (bound to `toggle+up`) - `shift-scroll-down` (bound to `toggle+down`) - `shift-left-click` (bound to `toggle`) - `shift-right-click` (bound to `toggle`) - `preview-scroll-up` (bound to `preview-up`) - `preview-scroll-down` (bound to `preview-down`) ```sh # Twice faster scrolling both in the main window and the preview window fzf --bind 'scroll-up:up+up,scroll-down:down+down' \ --bind 'preview-scroll-up:preview-up+preview-up' \ --bind 'preview-scroll-down:preview-down+preview-down' \ --preview 'cat {}' ``` - Added `offset-up` and `offset-down` actions ```sh # Scrolling will behave similarly to CTRL-E and CTRL-Y of vim fzf --bind scroll-up:offset-up,scroll-down:offset-down \ --bind ctrl-y:offset-up,ctrl-e:offset-down \ --scroll-off=5 ``` - Shell extensions - Updated bash completion for fzf options - bash key bindings no longer requires perl; it will use awk or mawk instead if perl is not found - Basic context-aware completion for ssh command - Applied `--scheme=path` for better ordering of the result - Bug fixes and improvements 0.42.0 ------ - Added new info style: `--info=right` - Added new info style: `--info=inline-right` - Added new border style `thinblock` which uses symbols for legacy computing [one eighth block elements](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbols_for_Legacy_Computing) - Similarly to `block`, this style is suitable when using a different background color because the window is completely contained within the border. ```sh BAT_THEME=GitHub fzf --info=right --border=thinblock --preview-window=border-thinblock \ --margin=3 --scrollbar=▏▕ --preview='bat --color=always --style=numbers {}' \ --color=light,query:238,fg:238,bg:251,bg+:249,gutter:251,border:248,preview-bg:253 ``` - This style may not render correctly depending on the font and the terminal emulator. 0.41.1 ------ - Fixed a bug where preview window is not updated when `--disabled` is set and a reload is triggered by `change:reload` binding 0.41.0 ------ - Added color name `preview-border` and `preview-scrollbar` - Added new border style `block` which uses [block elements](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_Elements) - `--scrollbar` can take two characters, one for the main window, the other for the preview window - Putting it altogether: ```sh fzf-tmux -p 80% --padding 1,2 --preview 'bat --style=plain --color=always {}' \ --color 'bg:237,bg+:235,gutter:237,border:238,scrollbar:236' \ --color 'preview-bg:235,preview-border:236,preview-scrollbar:234' \ --preview-window 'border-block' --border block --scrollbar '▌▐' ``` - Bug fixes and improvements 0.40.0 ------ - Added `zero` event that is triggered when there's no match ```sh # Reload the candidate list when there's no match echo $RANDOM | fzf --bind 'zero:reload(echo $RANDOM)+clear-query' --height 3 ``` - New actions - Added `track` action which makes fzf track the current item when the search result is updated. If the user manually moves the cursor, or the item is not in the updated search result, tracking is automatically disabled. Tracking is useful when you want to see the surrounding items by deleting the query string. ```sh # Narrow down the list with a query, point to a command, # and hit CTRL-T to see its surrounding commands. export FZF_CTRL_R_OPTS=" --preview 'echo {}' --preview-window up:3:hidden:wrap --bind 'ctrl-/:toggle-preview' --bind 'ctrl-t:track+clear-query' --bind 'ctrl-y:execute-silent(echo -n {2..} | pbcopy)+abort' --color header:italic --header 'Press CTRL-Y to copy command into clipboard'" ``` - Added `change-header(...)` - Added `transform-header(...)` - Added `toggle-track` action - Fixed `--track` behavior when used with `--tac` - However, using `--track` with `--tac` is not recommended. The resulting behavior can be very confusing. - Bug fixes and improvements 0.39.0 ------ - Added `one` event that is triggered when there's only one match ```sh # Automatically select the only match seq 10 | fzf --bind one:accept ``` - Added `--track` option that makes fzf track the current selection when the result list is updated. This can be useful when browsing logs using fzf with sorting disabled. ```sh git log --oneline --graph --color=always | nl | fzf --ansi --track --no-sort --layout=reverse-list ``` - If you use `--listen` option without a port number fzf will automatically allocate an available port and export it as `$FZF_PORT` environment variable. ```sh # Automatic port assignment fzf --listen --bind 'start:execute-silent:echo $FZF_PORT > /tmp/fzf-port' # Say hello curl "localhost:$(cat /tmp/fzf-port)" -d 'preview:echo Hello, fzf is listening on $FZF_PORT.' ``` - A carriage return and a line feed character will be rendered as dim ␍ and ␊ respectively. ```sh printf "foo\rbar\nbaz" | fzf --read0 --preview 'echo {}' ``` - fzf will stop rendering a non-displayable characters as a space. This will likely cause less glitches in the preview window. ```sh fzf --preview 'head -1000 /dev/random' ``` - Bug fixes and improvements 0.38.0 ------ - New actions - `become(...)` - Replace the current fzf process with the specified command using `execve(2)` system call. See https://github.com/junegunn/fzf#turning-into-a-different-process for more information. ```sh # Open selected files in Vim fzf --multi --bind 'enter:become(vim {+})' # Open the file in Vim and go to the line git grep --line-number . | fzf --delimiter : --nth 3.. --bind 'enter:become(vim {1} +{2})' ``` - This action is not supported on Windows - `show-preview` - `hide-preview` - Bug fixes - `--preview-window 0,hidden` should not execute the preview command until `toggle-preview` action is triggered 0.37.0 ------ - Added a way to customize the separator of inline info ```sh fzf --info 'inline: ╱ ' --prompt '╱ ' --color prompt:bright-yellow ``` - New event - `focus` - Triggered when the focus changes due to a vertical cursor movement or a search result update ```sh fzf --bind 'focus:transform-preview-label:echo [ {} ]' --preview 'cat {}' # Any action bound to the event runs synchronously and thus can make the interface sluggish # e.g. lolcat isn't one of the fastest programs, and every cursor movement in # fzf will be noticeably affected by its execution time fzf --bind 'focus:transform-preview-label:echo [ {} ] | lolcat -f' --preview 'cat {}' # Beware not to introduce an infinite loop seq 10 | fzf --bind 'focus:up' --cycle ``` - New actions - `change-border-label` - `change-preview-label` - `transform-border-label` - `transform-preview-label` - Bug fixes and improvements 0.36.0 ------ - Added `--listen=HTTP_PORT` option to start HTTP server. It allows external processes to send actions to perform via POST method. ```sh # Start HTTP server on port 6266 fzf --listen 6266 # Send actions to the server curl -XPOST localhost:6266 -d 'reload(seq 100)+change-prompt(hundred> )' ``` - Added draggable scrollbar to the main search window and the preview window ```sh # Hide scrollbar fzf --no-scrollbar # Customize scrollbar fzf --scrollbar ┆ --color scrollbar:blue ``` - New event - Added `load` event that is triggered when the input stream is complete and the initial processing of the list is complete. ```sh # Change the prompt to "loaded" when the input stream is complete (seq 10; sleep 1; seq 11 20) | fzf --prompt 'Loading> ' --bind 'load:change-prompt:Loaded> ' # You can use it instead of 'start' event without `--sync` if asynchronous # trigger is not an issue. (seq 10; sleep 1; seq 11 20) | fzf --bind 'load:last' ``` - New actions - Added `pos(...)` action to move the cursor to the numeric position - `first` and `last` are equivalent to `pos(1)` and `pos(-1)` respectively ```sh # Put the cursor on the 10th item seq 100 | fzf --sync --bind 'start:pos(10)' # Put the cursor on the 10th to last item seq 100 | fzf --sync --bind 'start:pos(-10)' ``` - Added `reload-sync(...)` action which replaces the current list only after the reload process is complete. This is useful when the command takes a while to produce the initial output and you don't want fzf to run against an empty list while the command is running. ```sh # You can still filter and select entries from the initial list for 3 seconds seq 100 | fzf --bind 'load:reload-sync(sleep 3; seq 1000)+unbind(load)' ``` - Added `next-selected` and `prev-selected` actions to move between selected items ```sh # `next-selected` will move the pointer to the next selected item below the current line # `prev-selected` will move the pointer to the previous selected item above the current line seq 10 | fzf --multi --bind ctrl-n:next-selected,ctrl-p:prev-selected # Both actions respect --layout option seq 10 | fzf --multi --bind ctrl-n:next-selected,ctrl-p:prev-selected --layout reverse ``` - Added `change-query(...)` action that simply changes the query string to the given static string. This can be useful when used with `--listen`. ```sh curl localhost:6266 -d "change-query:$(date)" ``` - Added `transform-prompt(...)` action for transforming the prompt string using an external command ```sh # Press space to change the prompt string using an external command # (only the first line of the output is taken) fzf --bind 'space:reload(ls),load:transform-prompt(printf "%s> " "$(date)")' ``` - Added `transform-query(...)` action for transforming the query string using an external command ```sh # Press space to convert the query to uppercase letters fzf --bind 'space:transform-query(tr "[:lower:]" "[:upper:]" <<< {q})' # Bind it to 'change' event for automatic conversion fzf --bind 'change:transform-query(tr "[:lower:]" "[:upper:]" <<< {q})' # Can only type numbers fzf --bind 'change:transform-query(sed "s/[^0-9]//g" <<< {q})' ``` - `put` action can optionally take an argument string ```sh # a will put 'alpha' on the prompt, ctrl-b will put 'bravo' fzf --bind 'a:put+put(lpha),ctrl-b:put(bravo)' ``` - Added color name `preview-label` for `--preview-label` (defaults to `label` for `--border-label`) - Better support for (Windows) terminals where each box-drawing character takes 2 columns. Set `RUNEWIDTH_EASTASIAN` environment variable to `0` or `1`. - On Vim, the variable will be automatically set if `&ambiwidth` is `double` - Behavior changes - fzf will always execute the preview command if the command template contains `{q}` even when it's empty. If you prefer the old behavior, you'll have to check if `{q}` is empty in your command. ```sh # This will show // even when the query is empty : | fzf --preview 'echo /{q}/' # But if you don't want it, : | fzf --preview '[ -n {q} ] || exit; echo /{q}/' ``` - `double-click` will behave the same as `enter` unless otherwise specified, so you don't have to repeat the same action twice in `--bind` in most cases. ```sh # No need to bind 'double-click' to the same action fzf --bind 'enter:execute:less {}' # --bind 'double-click:execute:less {}' ``` - If the color for `separator` is not specified, it will default to the color for `border`. Same holds true for `scrollbar`. This is to reduce the number of configuration items required to achieve a consistent color scheme. - If `follow` flag is specified in `--preview-window` option, fzf will automatically scroll to the bottom of the streaming preview output. But when the user manually scrolls the window, the following stops. With this version, fzf will resume following if the user scrolls the window to the bottom. - Default border style on Windows is changed to `sharp` because some Windows terminals are not capable of displaying `rounded` border characters correctly. - Minor bug fixes and improvements 0.35.1 ------ - Fixed a bug where fzf with `--tiebreak=chunk` crashes on inverse match query - Fixed a bug where clicking above fzf would paste escape sequences 0.35.0 ------ - Added `start` event that is triggered only once when fzf finder starts. Since fzf consumes the input stream asynchronously, the input list is not available unless you use `--sync`. ```sh seq 100 | fzf --multi --sync --bind 'start:last+select-all+preview(echo welcome)' ``` - Added `--border-label` and `--border-label-pos` for putting label on the border ```sh # ANSI color codes are supported # (with https://github.com/busyloop/lolcat) label=$(curl -s http://metaphorpsum.com/sentences/1 | lolcat -f) # Border label at the center fzf --height=10 --border --border-label="╢ $label ╟" --color=label:italic:black # Left-aligned (positive integer) fzf --height=10 --border --border-label="╢ $label ╟" --border-label-pos=3 --color=label:italic:black # Right-aligned (negative integer) on the bottom line (:bottom) fzf --height=10 --border --border-label="╢ $label ╟" --border-label-pos=-3:bottom --color=label:italic:black ``` - Also added `--preview-label` and `--preview-label-pos` for the border of the preview window ```sh fzf --preview 'cat {}' --border --preview-label=' Preview ' --preview-label-pos=2 ``` - Info panel (match counter) will be followed by a horizontal separator by default - Use `--no-separator` or `--separator=''` to hide the separator - You can specify an arbitrary string that is repeated to form the horizontal separator. e.g. `--separator=╸` - The color of the separator can be customized via `--color=separator:...` - ANSI color codes are also supported ```sh fzf --separator=╸ --color=separator:green fzf --separator=$(lolcat -f -F 1.4 <<< ▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▆▅▄▃▂▁▁) --info=inline ``` - Added `--border=bold` and `--border=double` along with `--preview-window=border-bold` and `--preview-window=border-double` 0.34.0 ------ - Added support for adaptive `--height`. If the `--height` value is prefixed with `~`, fzf will automatically determine the height in the range according to the input size. ```sh seq 1 | fzf --height ~70% --border --padding 1 --margin 1 seq 10 | fzf --height ~70% --border --padding 1 --margin 1 seq 100 | fzf --height ~70% --border --padding 1 --margin 1 ``` - There are a few limitations - Not compatible with percent top/bottom margin/padding ```sh # This is not allowed (top/bottom margin in percent value) fzf --height ~50% --border --margin 5%,10% # This is allowed (top/bottom margin in fixed value) fzf --height ~50% --border --margin 2,10% ``` - fzf will not start until it can determine the right height for the input ```sh # fzf will open immediately (sleep 2; seq 10) | fzf --height 50% # fzf will open after 2 seconds (sleep 2; seq 10) | fzf --height ~50% (sleep 2; seq 1000) | fzf --height ~50% ``` - Fixed tcell renderer used to render full-screen fzf on Windows - ~~`--no-clear` is deprecated. Use `reload` action instead.~~ 0.33.0 ------ - Added `--scheme=[default|path|history]` option to choose scoring scheme - (Experimental) - We updated the scoring algorithm in 0.32.0, however we have learned that this new scheme (`default`) is not always giving the optimal result - `path`: Additional bonus point is only given to the characters after path separator. You might want to choose this scheme if you have many files with spaces in their paths. - `history`: No additional bonus points are given so that we give more weight to the chronological ordering. This is equivalent to the scoring scheme before 0.32.0. This also sets `--tiebreak=index`. - ANSI color sequences with colon delimiters are now supported. ```sh printf "\e[38;5;208mOption 1\e[m\nOption 2" | fzf --ansi printf "\e[38:5:208mOption 1\e[m\nOption 2" | fzf --ansi ``` - Support `border-{up,down}` as the synonyms for `border-{top,bottom}` in `--preview-window` - Added support for ANSI `strikethrough` ```sh printf "\e[9mdeleted" | fzf --ansi fzf --color fg+:strikethrough ``` 0.32.1 ------ - Fixed incorrect ordering of `--tiebreak=chunk` - fzf-tmux will show fzf border instead of tmux popup border (requires tmux 3.3) ```sh fzf-tmux -p70% fzf-tmux -p70% --color=border:bright-red fzf-tmux -p100%,60% --color=border:bright-yellow --border=horizontal --padding 1,5 --margin 1,0 fzf-tmux -p70%,100% --color=border:bright-green --border=vertical # Key bindings (CTRL-T, CTRL-R, ALT-C) will use these options export FZF_TMUX_OPTS='-p100%,60% --color=border:green --border=horizontal --padding 1,5 --margin 1,0' ``` 0.32.0 ------ - Updated the scoring algorithm - Different bonus points to different categories of word boundaries (listed higher to lower bonus point) - Word after whitespace characters or beginning of the string - Word after common delimiter characters (`/,:;|`) - Word after other non-word characters ```sh # foo/bar.sh` is preferred over `foo-bar.sh` on `bar` fzf --query=bar --height=4 << EOF foo-bar.sh foo/bar.sh EOF ``` - Added a new tiebreak `chunk` - Favors the line with shorter matched chunk. A chunk is a set of consecutive non-whitespace characters. - Unlike the default `length`, this scheme works well with tabular input ```sh # length prefers item #1, because the whole line is shorter, # chunk prefers item #2, because the matched chunk ("foo") is shorter fzf --height=6 --header-lines=2 --tiebreak=chunk --reverse --query=fo << "EOF" N | Field1 | Field2 | Field3 - | ------ | ------ | ------ 1 | hello | foobar | baz 2 | world | foo | bazbaz EOF ``` - If the input does not contain any spaces, `chunk` is equivalent to `length`. But we're not going to set it as the default because it is computationally more expensive. - Bug fixes and improvements 0.31.0 ------ - Added support for an alternative preview window layout that is activated when the size of the preview window is smaller than a certain threshold. ```sh # If the width of the preview window is smaller than 50 columns, # it will be displayed above the search window. fzf --preview 'cat {}' --preview-window 'right,50%,border-left,<50(up,30%,border-bottom)' # Or you can just hide it like so fzf --preview 'cat {}' --preview-window '<50(hidden)' ``` - fzf now uses SGR mouse mode to properly support mouse on larger terminals - You can now use characters that do not satisfy `unicode.IsGraphic` constraint for `--marker`, `--pointer`, and `--ellipsis`. Allows Nerd Fonts and stuff. Use at your own risk. - Bug fixes and improvements - Shell extension - `kill` completion now requires trigger sequence (`**`) for consistency 0.30.0 ------ - Fixed cursor flickering over the screen by hiding it during rendering - Added `--ellipsis` option. You can take advantage of it to make fzf effectively search non-visible parts of the item. ```sh # Search against hidden line numbers on the far right nl /usr/share/dict/words | awk '{printf "%s%1000s\n", $2, $1}' | fzf --nth=-1 --no-hscroll --ellipsis='' | awk '{print $2}' ``` - Added `rebind` action for restoring bindings after `unbind` - Bug fixes and improvements 0.29.0 ------ - Added `change-preview(...)` action to change the `--preview` command - cf. `preview(...)` is a one-off action that doesn't change the default preview command - Added `change-preview-window(...)` action - You can rotate through the different options separated by `|` ```sh fzf --preview 'cat {}' --preview-window right:40% \ --bind 'ctrl-/:change-preview-window(right,70%|down,40%,border-top|hidden|)' ``` - Fixed rendering of the prompt line when overflow occurs with `--info=inline` 0.28.0 ------ - Added `--header-first` option to print header before the prompt line ```sh fzf --header $'Welcome to fzf\n▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔' --reverse --height 30% --border --header-first ``` - Added `--scroll-off=LINES` option (similar to `scrolloff` option of Vim) - You can set it to a very large number so that the cursor stays in the middle of the screen while scrolling ```sh fzf --scroll-off=5 fzf --scroll-off=999 ``` - Fixed bug where preview window is not updated on `reload` (#2644) - fzf on Windows will also use `$SHELL` to execute external programs - See #2638 and #2647 - Thanks to @rashil2000, @vovcacik, and @janlazo 0.27.3 ------ - Preview window is `hidden` by default when there are `preview` bindings but `--preview` command is not given - Fixed bug where `{n}` is not properly reset on `reload` - Fixed bug where spinner is not displayed on `reload` - Enhancements in tcell renderer for Windows (#2616) - Vim plugin - `sinklist` is added as a synonym to `sink*` so that it's easier to add a function to a spec dictionary ```vim let spec = { 'source': 'ls', 'options': ['--multi', '--preview', 'cat {}'] } function spec.sinklist(matches) echom string(a:matches) endfunction call fzf#run(fzf#wrap(spec)) ``` - Vim 7 compatibility 0.27.2 ------ - 16 base ANSI colors can be specified by their names ```sh fzf --color fg:3,fg+:11 fzf --color fg:yellow,fg+:bright-yellow ``` - Fix bug where `--read0` not properly displaying long lines 0.27.1 ------ - Added `unbind` action. In the following Ripgrep launcher example, you can use `unbind(reload)` to switch to fzf-only filtering mode. - See https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/blob/master/ADVANCED.md#switching-to-fzf-only-search-mode - Vim plugin - Vim plugin will stop immediately even when the source command hasn't finished ```vim " fzf will read the stream file while allowing other processes to append to it call fzf#run({'source': 'cat /dev/null > /tmp/stream; tail -f /tmp/stream'}) ``` - It is now possible to open popup window relative to the current window ```vim let g:fzf_layout = { 'window': { 'width': 0.9, 'height': 0.6, 'relative': v:true, 'yoffset': 1.0 } } ``` 0.27.0 ------ - More border options for `--preview-window` ```sh fzf --preview 'cat {}' --preview-window border-left fzf --preview 'cat {}' --preview-window border-left --border horizontal fzf --preview 'cat {}' --preview-window top:border-bottom fzf --preview 'cat {}' --preview-window top:border-horizontal ``` - Automatically set `/dev/tty` as STDIN on execute action ```sh # Redirect /dev/tty to suppress "Vim: Warning: Input is not from a terminal" # ls | fzf --bind "enter:execute(vim {} < /dev/tty)" # "< /dev/tty" part is no longer needed ls | fzf --bind "enter:execute(vim {})" ``` - Bug fixes and improvements - Signed and notarized macOS binaries (Huge thanks to [BACKERS.md](https://github.com/junegunn/junegunn/blob/main/BACKERS.md)!) 0.26.0 ------ - Added support for fixed header in preview window ```sh # Display top 3 lines as the fixed header fzf --preview 'bat --style=header,grid --color=always {}' --preview-window '~3' ``` - More advanced preview offset expression to better support the fixed header ```sh # Preview with bat, matching line in the middle of the window below # the fixed header of the top 3 lines # # ~3 Top 3 lines as the fixed header # +{2} Base scroll offset extracted from the second field # +3 Extra offset to compensate for the 3-line header # /2 Put in the middle of the preview area # git grep --line-number '' | fzf --delimiter : \ --preview 'bat --style=full --color=always --highlight-line {2} {1}' \ --preview-window '~3:+{2}+3/2' ``` - Added `select` and `deselect` action for unconditionally selecting or deselecting a single item in `--multi` mode. Complements `toggle` action. - Significant performance improvement in ANSI code processing - Bug fixes and improvements - Built with Go 1.16 0.25.1 ------ - Added `close` action - Close preview window if open, abort fzf otherwise - Bug fixes and improvements 0.25.0 ------ - Text attributes set in `--color` are not reset when fzf sees another `--color` option for the same element. This allows you to put custom text attributes in your `$FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS` and still have those attributes even when you override the colors. ```sh # Default colors and attributes fzf # Apply custom text attributes export FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS='--color fg+:italic,hl:-1:underline,hl+:-1:reverse:underline' fzf # Different colors but you still have the attributes fzf --color hl:176,hl+:177 # Write "regular" if you want to clear the attributes fzf --color hl:176:regular,hl+:177:regular ``` - Renamed `--phony` to `--disabled` - You can dynamically enable and disable the search functionality using the new `enable-search`, `disable-search`, and `toggle-search` actions - You can assign a different color to the query string for when search is disabled ```sh fzf --color query:#ffffff,disabled:#999999 --bind space:toggle-search ``` - Added `last` action to move the cursor to the last match - The opposite action `top` is renamed to `first`, but `top` is still recognized as a synonym for backward compatibility - Added `preview-top` and `preview-bottom` actions - Extended support for alt key chords: alt with any case-sensitive single character ```sh fzf --bind alt-,:first,alt-.:last ``` 0.24.4 ------ - Added `--preview-window` option `follow` ```sh # Preview window will automatically scroll to the bottom fzf --preview-window follow --preview 'for i in $(seq 100000); do echo "$i" sleep 0.01 (( i % 300 == 0 )) && printf "\033[2J" done' ``` - Added `change-prompt` action ```sh fzf --prompt 'foo> ' --bind $'a:change-prompt:\x1b[31mbar> ' ``` - Bug fixes and improvements 0.24.3 ------ - Added `--padding` option ```sh fzf --margin 5% --padding 5% --border --preview 'cat {}' \ --color bg:#222222,preview-bg:#333333 ``` 0.24.2 ------ - Bug fixes and improvements 0.24.1 ------ - Fixed broken `--color=[bw|no]` option 0.24.0 ------ - Real-time rendering of preview window ```sh # fzf can render preview window before the command completes fzf --preview 'sleep 1; for i in $(seq 100); do echo $i; sleep 0.01; done' # Preview window can process ANSI escape sequence (CSI 2 J) for clearing the display fzf --preview 'for i in $(seq 100000); do (( i % 200 == 0 )) && printf "\033[2J" echo "$i" sleep 0.01 done' ``` - Updated `--color` option to support text styles - `regular` / `bold` / `dim` / `underline` / `italic` / `reverse` / `blink` ```sh # * Set -1 to keep the original color # * Multiple style attributes can be combined # * Italic style may not be supported by some terminals rg --line-number --no-heading --color=always "" | fzf --ansi --prompt "Rg: " \ --color fg+:italic,hl:underline:-1,hl+:italic:underline:reverse:-1 \ --color pointer:reverse,prompt:reverse,input:159 \ --pointer ' ' ``` - More `--border` options - `vertical`, `top`, `bottom`, `left`, `right` - Updated Vim plugin to use these new `--border` options ```vim " Floating popup window in the center of the screen let g:fzf_layout = { 'window': { 'width': 0.9, 'height': 0.6 } } " Popup with 100% width let g:fzf_layout = { 'window': { 'width': 1.0, 'height': 0.5, 'border': 'horizontal' } } " Popup with 100% height let g:fzf_layout = { 'window': { 'width': 0.5, 'height': 1.0, 'border': 'vertical' } } " Similar to 'down' layout, but it uses a popup window and doesn't affect the window layout let g:fzf_layout = { 'window': { 'width': 1.0, 'height': 0.5, 'yoffset': 1.0, 'border': 'top' } } " Opens on the right; " 'highlight' option is still supported but it will only take the foreground color of the group let g:fzf_layout = { 'window': { 'width': 0.5, 'height': 1.0, 'xoffset': 1.0, 'border': 'left', 'highlight': 'Comment' } } ``` - To indicate if `--multi` mode is enabled, fzf will print the number of selected items even when no item is selected ```sh seq 100 | fzf # 100/100 seq 100 | fzf --multi # 100/100 (0) seq 100 | fzf --multi 5 # 100/100 (0/5) ``` - Since 0.24.0, release binaries will be uploaded to https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/releases 0.23.1 ------ - Added `--preview-window` options for disabling flags - `nocycle` - `nohidden` - `nowrap` - `default` - Built with Go 1.14.9 due to performance regression - https://github.com/golang/go/issues/40727 0.23.0 ------ - Support preview scroll offset relative to window height ```sh git grep --line-number '' | fzf --delimiter : \ --preview 'bat --style=numbers --color=always --highlight-line {2} {1}' \ --preview-window +{2}-/2 ``` - Added `--preview-window` option for sharp edges (`--preview-window sharp`) - Added `--preview-window` option for cyclic scrolling (`--preview-window cycle`) - Reduced vertical padding around the preview window when `--preview-window noborder` is used - Added actions for preview window - `preview-half-page-up` - `preview-half-page-down` - Vim - Popup width and height can be given in absolute integer values - Added `fzf#exec()` function for getting the path of fzf executable - It also downloads the latest binary if it's not available by running `./install --bin` - Built with Go 1.15.2 - We no longer provide 32-bit binaries 0.22.0 ------ - Added more options for `--bind` - `backward-eof` event ```sh # Aborts when you delete backward when the query prompt is already empty fzf --bind backward-eof:abort ``` - `refresh-preview` action ```sh # Rerun preview command when you hit '?' fzf --preview 'echo $RANDOM' --bind '?:refresh-preview' ``` - `preview` action ```sh # Default preview command with an extra preview binding fzf --preview 'file {}' --bind '?:preview:cat {}' # A preview binding with no default preview command # (Preview window is initially empty) fzf --bind '?:preview:cat {}' # Preview window hidden by default, it appears when you first hit '?' fzf --bind '?:preview:cat {}' --preview-window hidden ``` - Added preview window option for setting the initial scroll offset ```sh # Initial scroll offset is set to the line number of each line of # git grep output *minus* 5 lines git grep --line-number '' | fzf --delimiter : --preview 'nl {1}' --preview-window +{2}-5 ``` - Added support for ANSI colors in `--prompt` string - Smart match of accented characters - An unaccented character in the query string will match both accented and unaccented characters, while an accented character will only match accented characters. This is similar to how "smart-case" match works. - Vim plugin - `tmux` layout option for using fzf-tmux ```vim let g:fzf_layout = { 'tmux': '-p90%,60%' } ``` 0.21.1 ------ - Shell extension - CTRL-R will remove duplicate commands - fzf-tmux - Supports tmux popup window (require tmux 3.2 or above) - ```sh # 50% width and height fzf-tmux -p # 80% width and height fzf-tmux -p 80% # 80% width and 40% height fzf-tmux -p 80%,40% fzf-tmux -w 80% -h 40% # Window position fzf-tmux -w 80% -h 40% -x 0 -y 0 fzf-tmux -w 80% -h 40% -y 1000 # Write ordinary fzf options after -- fzf-tmux -p -- --reverse --info=inline --margin 2,4 --border ``` - On macOS, you can build the latest tmux from the source with `brew install tmux --HEAD` - Bug fixes - Fixed Windows file traversal not to include directories - Fixed ANSI colors with `--keep-right` - Fixed _fzf_complete for zsh - Built with Go 1.14.1 0.21.0 ------ - `--height` option is now available on Windows as well (@kelleyma49) - Added `--pointer` and `--marker` options - Added `--keep-right` option that keeps the right end of the line visible when it's too long - Style changes - `--border` will now print border with rounded corners around the finder instead of printing horizontal lines above and below it. The previous style is available via `--border=horizontal` - Unicode spinner - More keys and actions for `--bind` - Added PowerShell script for downloading Windows binary - Vim plugin: Built-in floating windows support ```vim let g:fzf_layout = { 'window': { 'width': 0.9, 'height': 0.6 } } ``` - bash: Various improvements in key bindings (CTRL-T, CTRL-R, ALT-C) - CTRL-R will start with the current command-line as the initial query - CTRL-R properly supports multi-line commands - Fuzzy completion API changed ```sh # Previous: fzf arguments given as a single string argument # - This style is still supported, but it's deprecated _fzf_complete "--multi --reverse --prompt=\"doge> \"" "$@" < <( echo foo ) # New API: multiple fzf arguments before "--" # - Easier to write multiple options _fzf_complete --multi --reverse --prompt="doge> " -- "$@" < <( echo foo ) ``` - Bug fixes and improvements 0.20.0 ------ - Customizable preview window color (`preview-fg` and `preview-bg` for `--color`) ```sh fzf --preview 'cat {}' \ --color 'fg:#bbccdd,fg+:#ddeeff,bg:#334455,preview-bg:#223344,border:#778899' \ --border --height 20 --layout reverse --info inline ``` - Removed the immediate flicking of the screen on `reload` action. ```sh : | fzf --bind 'change:reload:seq {q}' --phony ``` - Added `clear-query` and `clear-selection` actions for `--bind` - It is now possible to split a composite bind action over multiple `--bind` expressions by prefixing the later ones with `+`. ```sh fzf --bind 'ctrl-a:up+up' # Can be now written as fzf --bind 'ctrl-a:up' --bind 'ctrl-a:+up' # This is useful when you need to write special execute/reload form (i.e. `execute:...`) # to avoid parse errors and add more actions to the same key fzf --multi --bind 'ctrl-l:select-all+execute:less {+f}' --bind 'ctrl-l:+deselect-all' ``` - Fixed parse error of `--bind` expression where concatenated execute/reload action contains `+` character. ```sh fzf --multi --bind 'ctrl-l:select-all+execute(less {+f})+deselect-all' ``` - Fixed bugs of reload action - Not triggered when there's no match even when the command doesn't have any placeholder expressions - Screen not properly cleared when `--header-lines` not filled on reload 0.19.0 ------ - Added `--phony` option which completely disables search functionality. Useful when you want to use fzf only as a selector interface. See below. - Added "reload" action for dynamically updating the input list without restarting fzf. See https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/issues/1750 to learn more about it. ```sh # Using fzf as the selector interface for ripgrep RG_PREFIX="rg --column --line-number --no-heading --color=always --smart-case " INITIAL_QUERY="foo" FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND="$RG_PREFIX '$INITIAL_QUERY' || true" \ fzf --bind "change:reload:$RG_PREFIX {q} || true" \ --ansi --phony --query "$INITIAL_QUERY" ``` - `--multi` now takes an optional integer argument which indicates the maximum number of items that can be selected ```sh seq 100 | fzf --multi 3 --reverse --height 50% ``` - If a placeholder expression for `--preview` and `execute` action (and the new `reload` action) contains `f` flag, it is replaced to the path of a temporary file that holds the evaluated list. This is useful when you multi-select a large number of items and the length of the evaluated string may exceed [`ARG_MAX`][argmax]. ```sh # Press CTRL-A to select 100K items and see the sum of all the numbers seq 100000 | fzf --multi --bind ctrl-a:select-all \ --preview "awk '{sum+=\$1} END {print sum}' {+f}" ``` - `deselect-all` no longer deselects unmatched items. It is now consistent with `select-all` and `toggle-all` in that it only affects matched items. - Due to the limitation of bash, fuzzy completion is enabled by default for a fixed set of commands. A helper function for easily setting up fuzzy completion for any command is now provided. ```sh # usage: _fzf_setup_completion path|dir COMMANDS... _fzf_setup_completion path git kubectl ``` - Info line style can be changed by `--info=STYLE` - `--info=default` - `--info=inline` (same as old `--inline-info`) - `--info=hidden` - Preview window border can be disabled by adding `noborder` to `--preview-window`. - When you transform the input with `--with-nth`, the trailing white spaces are removed. - `ctrl-\`, `ctrl-]`, `ctrl-^`, and `ctrl-/` can now be used with `--bind` - See https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/milestone/15?closed=1 for more details [argmax]: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/120642/what-defines-the-maximum-size-for-a-command-single-argument 0.18.0 ------ - Added placeholder expression for zero-based item index: `{n}` and `{+n}` - `fzf --preview 'echo {n}: {}'` - Added color option for the gutter: `--color gutter:-1` - Added `--no-unicode` option for drawing borders in non-Unicode, ASCII characters - `FZF_PREVIEW_LINES` and `FZF_PREVIEW_COLUMNS` are exported to preview process - fzf still overrides `LINES` and `COLUMNS` as before, but they may be reset by the default shell. - Bug fixes and improvements - See https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/milestone/14?closed=1 - Built with Go 1.12.1 0.17.5 ------ - Bug fixes and improvements - See https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/milestone/13?closed=1 - Search query longer than the screen width is allowed (up to 300 chars) - Built with Go 1.11.1 0.17.4 ------ - Added `--layout` option with a new layout called `reverse-list`. - `--layout=reverse` is a synonym for `--reverse` - `--layout=default` is a synonym for `--no-reverse` - Preview window will be updated even when there is no match for the query if any of the placeholder expressions (e.g. `{q}`, `{+}`) evaluates to a non-empty string. - More keys for binding: `shift-{up,down}`, `alt-{up,down,left,right}` - fzf can now start even when `/dev/tty` is not available by making an educated guess. - Updated the default command for Windows. - Fixes and improvements on bash/zsh completion - install and uninstall scripts now supports generating files under `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` on `--xdg` flag. See https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/milestone/12?closed=1 for the full list of changes. 0.17.3 ------ - `$LINES` and `$COLUMNS` are exported to preview command so that the command knows the exact size of the preview window. - Better error messages when the default command or `$FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND` fails. - Reverted #1061 to avoid having duplicate entries in the list when find command detected a file system loop (#1120). The default command now requires that find supports `-fstype` option. - fzf now distinguishes mouse left click and right click (#1130) - Right click is now bound to `toggle` action by default - `--bind` understands `left-click` and `right-click` - Added `replace-query` action (#1137) - Replaces query string with the current selection - Added `accept-non-empty` action (#1162) - Same as accept, except that it prevents fzf from exiting without any selection 0.17.1 ------ - Fixed custom background color of preview window (#1046) - Fixed background color issues of Windows binary - Fixed Windows binary to execute command using cmd.exe with no parsing and escaping (#1072) - Added support for `window` layout on Vim 8 using Vim 8 terminal (#1055) 0.17.0-2 -------- A maintenance release for auxiliary scripts. fzf binaries are not updated. - Experimental support for the builtin terminal of Vim 8 - fzf can now run inside GVim - Updated Vim plugin to better handle `&shell` issue on fish - Fixed a bug of fzf-tmux where invalid output is generated - Fixed fzf-tmux to work even when `tput` does not work 0.17.0 ------ - Performance optimization - One can match literal spaces in extended-search mode with a space prepended by a backslash. - `--expect` is now additive and can be specified multiple times. 0.16.11 ------- - Performance optimization - Fixed missing preview update 0.16.10 ------- - Fixed invalid handling of ANSI colors in preview window - Further improved `--ansi` performance 0.16.9 ------ - Memory and performance optimization - Around 20% performance improvement for general use cases - Up to 5x faster processing of `--ansi` - Up to 50% reduction of memory usage - Bug fixes and usability improvements - Fixed handling of bracketed paste mode - [ERROR] on info line when the default command failed - More efficient rendering of preview window - `--no-clear` updated for repetitive relaunching scenarios 0.16.8 ------ - New `change` event and `top` action for `--bind` - `fzf --bind change:top` - Move cursor to the top result whenever the query string is changed - `fzf --bind 'ctrl-w:unix-word-rubout+top,ctrl-u:unix-line-discard+top'` - `top` combined with `unix-word-rubout` and `unix-line-discard` - Fixed inconsistent tiebreak scores when `--nth` is used - Proper display of tab characters in `--prompt` - Fixed not to `--cycle` on page-up/page-down to prevent overshoot - Git revision in `--version` output - Basic support for Cygwin environment - Many fixes in Vim plugin on Windows/Cygwin (thanks to @janlazo) 0.16.7 ------ - Added support for `ctrl-alt-[a-z]` key chords - CTRL-Z (SIGSTOP) now works with fzf - fzf will export `$FZF_PREVIEW_WINDOW` so that the scripts can use it - Bug fixes and improvements in Vim plugin and shell extensions 0.16.6 ------ - Minor bug fixes and improvements - Added `--no-clear` option for scripting purposes 0.16.5 ------ - Minor bug fixes - Added `toggle-preview-wrap` action - Built with Go 1.8 0.16.4 ------ - Added `--border` option to draw border above and below the finder - Bug fixes and improvements 0.16.3 ------ - Fixed a bug where fzf incorrectly display the lines when straddling tab characters are trimmed - Placeholder expression used in `--preview` and `execute` action can optionally take `+` flag to be used with multiple selections - e.g. `git log --oneline | fzf --multi --preview 'git show {+1}'` - Added `execute-silent` action for executing a command silently without switching to the alternate screen. This is useful when the process is short-lived and you're not interested in its output. - e.g. `fzf --bind 'ctrl-y:execute!(echo -n {} | pbcopy)'` - `ctrl-space` is allowed in `--bind` 0.16.2 ------ - Dropped ncurses dependency - Binaries for freebsd, openbsd, arm5, arm6, arm7, and arm8 - Official 24-bit color support - Added support for composite actions in `--bind`.

(@kelleyma49) - Fixed the bug where header lines are cleared when preview window is toggled - Fixed not to display ^N and ^O on screen - Fixed cursor keys (or any key sequence that starts with ESC) on WSL by making fzf wait for additional keystrokes after ESC for up to 100ms 0.15.5 ------ - Setting foreground color will no longer set background color to black - e.g. `fzf --color fg:153` - `--tiebreak=end` will consider relative position instead of absolute distance - Updated `fzf#wrap` function to respect `g:fzf_colors` 0.15.4 ------ - Added support for range expression in preview and execute action - e.g. `ls -l | fzf --preview="echo user={3} when={-4..-2}; cat {-1}" --header-lines=1` - `{q}` will be replaced to the single-quoted string of the current query - Fixed to properly handle unicode whitespace characters - Display scroll indicator in preview window - Inverse search term will use exact matcher by default - This is a breaking change, but I believe it makes much more sense. It is almost impossible to predict which entries will be filtered out due to a fuzzy inverse term. You can still perform inverse-fuzzy-match by prepending `!'` to the term. 0.15.3 ------ - Added support for more ANSI attributes: dim, underline, blink, and reverse - Fixed race condition in `toggle-preview` 0.15.2 ------ - Preview window is now scrollable - With mouse scroll or with bindable actions - `preview-up` - `preview-down` - `preview-page-up` - `preview-page-down` - Updated ANSI processor to support high intensity colors and ignore some VT100-related escape sequences 0.15.1 ------ - Fixed panic when the pattern occurs after 2^15-th column - Fixed rendering delay when displaying extremely long lines 0.15.0 ------ - Improved fuzzy search algorithm - Added `--algo=[v1|v2]` option so one can still choose the old algorithm which values the search performance over the quality of the result - Advanced scoring criteria - `--read0` to read input delimited by ASCII NUL character - `--print0` to print output delimited by ASCII NUL character 0.13.5 ------ - Memory and performance optimization - Up to 2x performance with half the amount of memory 0.13.4 ------ - Performance optimization - Memory footprint for ascii string is reduced by 60% - 15 to 20% improvement of query performance - Up to 45% better performance of `--nth` with non-regex delimiters - Fixed invalid handling of `hidden` property of `--preview-window` 0.13.3 ------ - Fixed duplicate rendering of the last line in preview window 0.13.2 ------ - Fixed race condition where preview window is not properly cleared 0.13.1 ------ - Fixed UI issue with large `--preview` output with many ANSI codes 0.13.0 ------ - Added preview feature - `--preview CMD` - `--preview-window POS[:SIZE][:hidden]` - `{}` in execute action is now replaced to the single-quoted (instead of double-quoted) string of the current line - Fixed to ignore control characters for bracketed paste mode 0.12.2 ------ - 256-color capability detection does not require `256` in `$TERM` - Added `print-query` action - More named keys for binding; F1 ~ F10, ALT-/, ALT-space, and ALT-enter - Added `jump` and `jump-accept` actions that implement [EasyMotion][em]-like movement ![][jump] [em]: https://github.com/easymotion/vim-easymotion [jump]: https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/700826/15367574/b3999dc4-1d64-11e6-85da-28ceeb1a9bc2.png 0.12.1 ------ - Ranking algorithm introduced in 0.12.0 is now universally applied - Fixed invalid cache reference in exact mode - Fixes and improvements in Vim plugin and shell extensions 0.12.0 ------ - Enhanced ranking algorithm - Minor bug fixes 0.11.4 ------ - Added `--hscroll-off=COL` option (default: 10) (#513) - Some fixes in Vim plugin and shell extensions 0.11.3 ------ - Graceful exit on SIGTERM (#482) - `$SHELL` instead of `sh` for `execute` action and `$FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND` (#481) - Changes in fuzzy completion API - [`_fzf_compgen_{path,dir}`](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/commit/9617647) - [`_fzf_complete_COMMAND_post`](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/commit/8206746) for post-processing 0.11.2 ------ - `--tiebreak` now accepts comma-separated list of sort criteria - Each criterion should appear only once in the list - `index` is only allowed at the end of the list - `index` is implicitly appended to the list when not specified - Default is `length` (or equivalently `length,index`) - `begin` criterion will ignore leading whitespaces when calculating the index - Added `toggle-in` and `toggle-out` actions - Switch direction depending on `--reverse`-ness - `export FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS="--bind tab:toggle-out,shift-tab:toggle-in"` - Reduced the initial delay when `--tac` is not given - fzf defers the initial rendering of the screen up to 100ms if the input stream is ongoing to prevent unnecessary redraw during the initial phase. However, 100ms delay is quite noticeable and might give the impression that fzf is not snappy enough. This commit reduces the maximum delay down to 20ms when `--tac` is not specified, in which case the input list quickly fills the entire screen. 0.11.1 ------ - Added `--tabstop=SPACES` option 0.11.0 ------ - Added OR operator for extended-search mode - Added `--execute-multi` action - Fixed incorrect cursor position when unicode wide characters are used in `--prompt` - Fixes and improvements in shell extensions 0.10.9 ------ - Extended-search mode is now enabled by default - `--extended-exact` is deprecated and instead we have `--exact` for orthogonally controlling "exactness" of search - Fixed not to display non-printable characters - Added `double-click` for `--bind` option - More robust handling of SIGWINCH 0.10.8 ------ - Fixed panic when trying to set colors after colors are disabled (#370) 0.10.7 ------ - Fixed unserialized interrupt handling during execute action which often caused invalid memory access and crash - Changed `--tiebreak=length` (default) to use trimmed length when `--nth` is used 0.10.6 ------ - Replaced `--header-file` with `--header` option - `--header` and `--header-lines` can be used together - Changed exit status - 0: Okay - 1: No match - 2: Error - 130: Interrupted - 64-bit linux binary is statically-linked with ncurses to avoid compatibility issues. 0.10.5 ------ - `'`-prefix to unquote the term in `--extended-exact` mode - Backward scan when `--tiebreak=end` is set 0.10.4 ------ - Fixed to remove ANSI code from output when `--with-nth` is set 0.10.3 ------ - Fixed slow performance of `--with-nth` when used with `--delimiter` - Regular expression engine of Golang as of now is very slow, so the fixed version will treat the given delimiter pattern as a plain string instead of a regular expression unless it contains special characters and is a valid regular expression. - Simpler regular expression for delimiter for better performance 0.10.2 ------ ### Fixes and improvements - Improvement in perceived response time of queries - Eager, efficient rune array conversion - Graceful exit when failed to initialize ncurses (invalid $TERM) - Improved ranking algorithm when `--nth` option is set - Changed the default command not to fail when there are files whose names start with dash 0.10.1 ------ ### New features - Added `--margin` option - Added options for sticky header - `--header-file` - `--header-lines` - Added `cancel` action which clears the input or closes the finder when the input is already empty - e.g. `export FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS="--bind esc:cancel"` - Added `delete-char/eof` action to differentiate `CTRL-D` and `DEL` ### Minor improvements/fixes - Fixed to allow binding colon and comma keys - Fixed ANSI processor to handle color regions spanning multiple lines 0.10.0 ------ ### New features - More actions for `--bind` - `select-all` - `deselect-all` - `toggle-all` - `ignore` - `execute(...)` action for running arbitrary command without leaving fzf - `fzf --bind "ctrl-m:execute(less {})"` - `fzf --bind "ctrl-t:execute(tmux new-window -d 'vim {}')"` - If the command contains parentheses, use any of the follows alternative notations to avoid parse errors - `execute[...]` - `execute~...~` - `execute!...!` - `execute@...@` - `execute#...#` - `execute$...$` - `execute%...%` - `execute^...^` - `execute&...&` - `execute*...*` - `execute;...;` - `execute/.../` - `execute|...|` - `execute:...` - This is the special form that frees you from parse errors as it does not expect the closing character - The catch is that it should be the last one in the comma-separated list - Added support for optional search history - `--history HISTORY_FILE` - When used, `CTRL-N` and `CTRL-P` are automatically remapped to `next-history` and `previous-history` - `--history-size MAX_ENTRIES` (default: 1000) - Cyclic scrolling can be enabled with `--cycle` - Fixed the bug where the spinner was not spinning on idle input stream - e.g. `sleep 100 | fzf` ### Minor improvements/fixes - Added synonyms for key names that can be specified for `--bind`, `--toggle-sort`, and `--expect` - Fixed the color of multi-select marker on the current line - Fixed to allow `^pattern$` in extended-search mode 0.9.13 ------ ### New features - Color customization with the extended `--color` option ### Bug fixes - Fixed premature termination of Reader in the presence of a long line which is longer than 64KB 0.9.12 ------ ### New features - Added `--bind` option for custom key bindings ### Bug fixes - Fixed to update "inline-info" immediately after terminal resize - Fixed ANSI code offset calculation 0.9.11 ------ ### New features - Added `--inline-info` option for saving screen estate (#202) - Useful inside Neovim - e.g. `let $FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS = $FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS.' --inline-info'` ### Bug fixes - Invalid mutation of input on case conversion (#209) - Smart-case for each term in extended-search mode (#208) - Fixed double-click result when scroll offset is positive 0.9.10 ------ ### Improvements - Performance optimization - Less aggressive memoization to limit memory usage ### New features - Added color scheme for light background: `--color=light` 0.9.9 ----- ### New features - Added `--tiebreak` option (#191) - Added `--no-hscroll` option (#193) - Visual indication of `--toggle-sort` (#194) 0.9.8 ----- ### Bug fixes - Fixed Unicode case handling (#186) - Fixed to terminate on RuneError (#185) 0.9.7 ----- ### New features - Added `--toggle-sort` option (#173) - `--toggle-sort=ctrl-r` is applied to `CTRL-R` shell extension ### Bug fixes - Fixed to print empty line if `--expect` is set and fzf is completed by `--select-1` or `--exit-0` (#172) - Fixed to allow comma character as an argument to `--expect` option 0.9.6 ----- ### New features #### Added `--expect` option (#163) If you provide a comma-separated list of keys with `--expect` option, fzf will allow you to select the match and complete the finder when any of the keys is pressed. Additionally, fzf will print the name of the key pressed as the first line of the output so that your script can decide what to do next based on the information. ```sh fzf --expect=ctrl-v,ctrl-t,alt-s,f1,f2,~,@ ``` The updated vim plugin uses this option to implement [ctrlp](https://github.com/kien/ctrlp.vim)-compatible key bindings. ### Bug fixes - Fixed to ignore ANSI escape code `\e[K` (#162) 0.9.5 ----- ### New features #### Added `--ansi` option (#150) If you give `--ansi` option to fzf, fzf will interpret ANSI color codes from the input, display the item with the ANSI colors (true colors are not supported), and strips the codes from the output. This option is off by default as it entails some overhead. ### Improvements #### Reduced initial memory footprint (#151) By removing unnecessary copy of pointers, fzf will use significantly smaller amount of memory when it's started. The difference is hugely noticeable when the input is extremely large. (e.g. `locate / | fzf`) ### Bug fixes - Fixed panic on `--no-sort --filter ''` (#149) 0.9.4 ----- ### New features #### Added `--tac` option to reverse the order of the input. One might argue that this option is unnecessary since we can already put `tac` or `tail -r` in the command pipeline to achieve the same result. However, the advantage of `--tac` is that it does not block until the input is complete. ### *Backward incompatible changes* #### Changed behavior on `--no-sort` `--no-sort` option will no longer reverse the display order within finder. You may want to use the new `--tac` option with `--no-sort`. ``` history | fzf +s --tac ``` ### Improvements #### `--filter` will not block when sort is disabled When fzf works in filtering mode (`--filter`) and sort is disabled (`--no-sort`), there's no need to block until input is complete. The new version of fzf will print the matches on-the-fly when the following condition is met: --filter TERM --no-sort [--no-tac --no-sync] or simply: -f TERM +s This change removes unnecessary delay in the use cases like the following: fzf -f xxx +s | head -5 However, in this case, fzf processes the lines sequentially, so it cannot utilize multiple cores, and fzf will run slightly slower than the previous mode of execution where filtering is done in parallel after the entire input is loaded. If the user is concerned about this performance problem, one can add `--sync` option to re-enable buffering. 0.9.3 ----- ### New features - Added `--sync` option for multi-staged filtering ### Improvements - `--select-1` and `--exit-0` will start finder immediately when the condition cannot be met
