fish suggests commands as you type based on history and completions, just like a web browser. Watch out, Netscape Navigator 4.0! </div>
Glorious VGA Color
fish natively supports term256, the state of the art in terminal technology. You'll have an astonishing 256 colors available for use! </div> </div>
Sane Scripting
fish is fully scriptable, and its syntax is simple, clean, and consistent. You'll never write esac again. </div>
Web Based configuration
For those lucky few with a graphical computer, you can set your colors and view functions, variables, and history all from a web page. </div> </div>
Man Page Completions
Other shells support programmable completions, but only fish generates them automatically by parsing your installed man pages. </div>
Works Out Of The Box
fish will delight you with features like tab completions and syntax highlighting that just work, with nothing new to learn or configure. </div> </div> </div>
