Clink

• Changed the installer to always install the icon files.
• Fixed the clink.bat script and the updater when the user account name contains & | < or > characters.
• Fixed display and insertion of completions generated by argmatchers that used fromhistory=true.
• Fixed the uninstaller to delete some files it accidentally left behind.
• Fixed a diagnostic message lacking detail in an obscure case of coroutine cancellation.

• Changed to only generate suggestions if there is no more input available. For example, otherwise pasting input could repeatedly generate suggestions over and over and refresh the display, even though the suggestions will be discarded by the next input key.
• Changed the clink-diagnostics command to show total time spent by each coroutine.

• Changed how repeated deletions work in popup lists (such as the history popup list): pressing Del repeatedly now deletes downwards by default (previously it deleted upwards).
• Added new clink.popup_delete_direction setting to control the direction of deletions when pressing Del repeatedly in popup lists (such as the history popup list).
• Added new Lua API clink.argmatcherloader() which registers a callback function that can intercept and extend on-demand loading for argmatchers.
• Running clink config prompt show now shows the name of the currently selected *.clinkprompt custom prompt (if any).
• Fixed macro text playback in macros containing a newline (regression introduced by an incorrect change in v1.2.34 which was exacerbated by a change in v1.7.17).

• Added new Lua API os.getdiskfreespace() which returns the free and total space.
• Improved detection of Windows Terminal during clink config prompt.
• Fixed clink config prompt and clink set to load the user's .inputrc file (some settings it in can affect prompt previews, for example).

• Added a new starship.clinkprompt script. Run clink config prompt use starship to use it.
• Added --all flag to show all themes or prompts: clink config theme show --all or clink config prompt show --all.
• Added input hint text for :chaincommand() and for the onadvance and onalias callbacks. If no input hint is specified then the default input hint text is "Argument expected: command [args]".
• Improved error reporting in the oh-my-posh.clinkprompt script.
• Fixed input line coloring for clink set some_string_setting clear.
• Fixed #799; in legacy console, using the clink-selectall-conhost bindable command scrolls back to the last line after dismissing the Fi

• Added an optional hide= field in _argmatcher:addarg() and _argmatcher:addflags(). Any strings listed in the hide field are added to the argument slot or list of flags, but completion functions will not show them. This gives argument slots the same ability that flags had with _argmatcher:hideflags().
• Added the OSC9;9 escape sequence to the prompt in Windows Terminal and ConEmu, to let the terminal know the current directory. For example, this enables Windows Terminal's "Duplicate Tab" command to apply the current directory to the new tab.
• Fixed the suggestion list to hide and go temporarily inactive after commands like complete which print some output and then show another prompt line. The suggestion list becomes active again after something changes the

v1.8.2

• Improved highlight position and length detection in the suggestion list for some completions.
• Added new suggestionlist.num_history setting to control how many history suggestions can be shown before suggestions from other sources (from 1 to 8).
• Added an optimization when re-drawing the suggestion list.
• Added to vi mode the F2 key binding for the clink-toggle-suggestion-list command.
• Fixed the right alignment of the autosuggest hint string in vi mode (regression introduced in v1.3.43).
• Fixed #797; crash when typing in vi mode (regression introduced in v1.8.0).

v1.8.1

• Fixed #796; unable to load Clink on Win7 and earlier (regression introduced in v1.8.0 by Readline changes).

v1.8.1

• Fixed #796; unable to load Clink on Win7 and earlier (regression introduced in v1.8.0 by Readline changes).

v1.8.0

• Added an interactive list mode for choosing from available suggestions. This is similar to PowerShell's "listview" mode.
  • Added a clink-toggle-suggestion-list command (F2 by default) which toggles the suggestion list mode on/off.
  • Added a suggestionlist.default setting which can make a Clink session start with the suggestion list mode on.
  • Added new color.suggestionlist* color settings for the suggestion list colors.
• Added new Lua API clink.opensessionstream() which opens or creates a named in-memory stream that behaves like a Lua file handle and lasts for

• Added new Lua API clink.opensessionstream() which opens or creates a named in-memory stream that behaves like a Lua file handle and lasts for the duration of the Clink session, even when the Lua VM is restarted (such as by Ctrl-x,Ctrl-r).
• Added debug.log_prompt setting which log

• Explicitly disable loadlib and related support in Lua; Clink uses a statically linked Lua engine and does not support dynamic C libraries.
• Fixed the onprovideline event so it doesn't interfere with the same_dir mode of prompt.transient.
• Fixed input line coloring of echo in for %i (1 2 3) do @echo %i (regression introduced in v1.6.16).
• Fixed how clink autorun set parses flags and quotes, so that clink autorun set \"c:\my tools\clink\" inject --autorun works as expected.
• Fixed the exec.commands setting when an argmatcher uses :chaincommand().
• Fixed edge cases for @ command prefix when an argmatcher uses :chaincommand().
• Fixed #779; an argmatcher

• Fixed TAB expansion of foo ~ when there is no argmatcher for foo.
• Fixed #772; uninstall fails to uninstall autorun if the logged on user is not an administrator.
• Fixed #773; unexpected completion behavior after a doskey alias command.
