  • Fish shell

    You can change the used shell in the configs. At least for Alacritty, when I used it (dont care, it was still kinda broken, I just use Konsole)

    • Interesting, I never heard of setting your shell in the emulator config. I just used 'chsh' once when I setup the install.

      • Yeah please dont use chsh.

        Zsh may work, dash (which is a faster, smaller reimplementation of bash) may work.

        But fish absolutely doesnt.

        Just because you want to have a nice writing experience, that doesnt mean your whole OS needs a different shell.

        I will experiment with dash though. Ubuntu uses it as the root shell, so it is really well tested.

  • Yes! Zsh-syntax-highlighting is a starting point to look at. You can also use fish shell
