16 base ANSI colors can be specified by their names
fzf --color fg:3,fg+:11
fzf --color fg:yellow,fg+:bright-yellow
Fix bug where --read0 not properly displaying long lines
Added unbind action. In the following Ripgrep launcher example,
you can use unbind(reload) to switch to fzf-only filtering mode.
Vim plugin
Vim plugin will stop immediately even when the source command hasn't finished
It is now possible to open popup window relative to the currrent window
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.
- Sigificant 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👎underline,hl+👎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

- 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
let g:fzf_layout = { 'tmux': '-p90%,60%' }
```
0.21.1
------

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.
lang/go/go-package.mk install several files that are not needed for packages
that just install a program. Define `do-install' target to avoid that.
While here also install fzf-tmux in bin/, man pages under ${PKGMANDIR}
accordingly and shell completions/bindings and vim plugin under
share/fzf. Update MESSAGE to reflect this change.
PKGREVISION++
Discussed with <maya>.
0.17.3
------
- `$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
fzf is a general-purpose command-line fuzzy finder. It's an
interactive Unix filter for command-line that can be used with any
list; files, command history, processes, hostnames, bookmarks, git
commits, etc.
