fish, the friendly interactive shell, is a commandline shell intended to be interactive and user-friendly.

fish is intentionally not fully POSIX compliant, it aims at addressing POSIX inconsistencies (as perceived by the creators) with a simplified or a different syntax. This means that even simple POSIX compliant scripts may require some significant adaptation or even full rewriting to run with fish.

basically a text expansion. I have g=git, so when I type "g push" after I hit space after g, it expands it to git in the terminal as if i just typed out git myself. My history doesnt show "g push" it shows "git push" before I push enter
