CHANGELOG
0.56.0
- Added
--gap[=N]
option to display empty lines between items.- This can be useful to visually separate adjacent multi-line items.
# All bash functions, highlighted declare -f | perl -0777 -pe 's/^}\n/}\0/gm' | bat --plain --language bash --color always | fzf --read0 --ansi --reverse --multi --highlight-line --gap
- Or just to make the list easier to read. For single-line items, you probably want to set
--color gutter:-1
as well to hide the gutter.fzf --gap --color gutter:-1
- This can be useful to visually separate adjacent multi-line items.
- Bug fixes
0.55.0
Release highlights: https://junegunn.github.io/fzf/releases/0.55.0/
- Added
exact-boundary-match
type to the search syntax. When a search term is single-quoted, fzf will search for the exact occurrences of the string with both ends at word boundaries.fzf --query "'here'" << EOF come here not there EOF
- [bash] Fuzzy path completion is enabled for all commands
-
- If the default completion is not already set
-
- And if the current bash supports
complete -D
option
- And if the current bash supports
- However, fuzzy completion for some commands can be "dynamically" disabled by the dynamic completion loader
- See the comment in
__fzf_default_completion
function for more information
-
- Comments are now allowed in
$FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS
and$FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS_FILE
export FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS=' # Layout options --layout=reverse --info=inline-right # Show info on the right side of the prompt line # ... '
- Hyperlinks (OSC 8) are now supported in the preview window and in the main window
printf '<< \e]8;;http://github.com/junegunn/fzf\e\\Link to \e[32mfz\e[0mf\e]8;;\e\\ >>' | fzf --ansi fzf --preview "printf '<< \e]8;;http://github.com/junegunn/fzf\e\\Link to \e[32mfz\e[0mf\e]8;;\e\\ >>'"
- The default
--ellipsis
is now··
instead of..
. - [vim] A spec can have
exit
callback that is called with the exit status of fzf- This can be used to clean up temporary resources or restore the original state when fzf is closed without a selection
- Fixed
--tmux bottom
when the status line is not at the bottom - Fixed extra scroll offset in multi-line mode (
--read0
or--wrap
) - Added fallback
ps
command forkill
completion on Cygwin
0.54.3
- Fixed incompatibility of adaptive height specification and 'start:reload'
# A regression in 0.54.0 would cause this to fail fzf --height '~100%' --bind 'start:reload:seq 10'
- Environment variables are now available to
$FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND
FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND='echo $FZF_QUERY' fzf --query foo
0.54.2
- Fixed incorrect syntax highlighting of truncated multi-line entries
- Updated GoReleaser to 2.1.0 to simplify notarization of macOS binaries
- macOS archives will be in
tar.gz
format instead ofzip
format since we no longer notarize the zip files but binaries
- macOS archives will be in
- (Windows) Reverted a mintty fix in 0.54.0
- As a result, mouse may not work on mintty in fullscreen mode. However, fzf will correctly read non-ASCII input in fullscreen mode (
--no-height
). - fzf unfortunately cannot read non-ASCII input when not in fullscreen mode on Windows. So if you need to input non-ASCII characters, add
--no-height
to your$FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS
. - Any help in fixing this issue will be appreciated (#3799, #3847).
- As a result, mouse may not work on mintty in fullscreen mode. However, fzf will correctly read non-ASCII input in fullscreen mode (
0.54.1
- Updated fastwalk dependency for built-in directory walker
- Reverted ALT-C binding of fish to use
cd
instead ofbuiltin cd
builtin cd
was introduced to work around a bug ofcd
coming fromzoxide init --cmd cd fish
where it cannot handle--
argument.- However, the default
cd
of fish is actually a wrapper function for supportingcd -
, so we want to use it instead. - See #3928 for more information and consider helping zoxide fix the bug.
0.54.0
Release highlights: https://junegunn.github.io/fzf/releases/0.54.0/
- Implemented line wrap of long items
--wrap
option enables line wrap--wrap-sign
customizes the sign for wrapped lines (default:↳
)toggle-wrap
action toggles line wraphistory | fzf --tac --wrap --bind 'ctrl-/:toggle-wrap' --wrap-sign $'\t↳ '
- fzf by default binds
CTRL-/
andALT-/
totoggle-wrap
- Updated shell integration scripts to leverage line wrap
- CTRL-R binding includes
--wrap-sign $'\t↳ '
to indent wrapped lines kill **
completion uses--wrap
to show the whole line by default instead of showing it in the preview window
- CTRL-R binding includes
- Added
--info-command
option for customizing the info line# Prepend the current cursor position in yellow fzf --info-command='echo -e "\x1b[33;1m$FZF_POS\x1b[m/$FZF_INFO 💛"'
$FZF_INFO
is set to the original info text- ANSI color codes are supported
- Pointer and marker signs can be set to empty strings
# Minimal style fzf --pointer '' --marker '' --prompt '' --info hidden
- Better cache management and improved rendering for
--tail
- Improved
--sync
behavior- When
--sync
is provided, fzf will not render the interface until the initial filtering and the associated actions (bound to any ofstart
,load
,result
, orfocus
) are complete.# fzf will not render intermediate states (sleep 1; seq 1000000; sleep 1) | fzf --sync --query 5 --listen --bind start:up,load:up,result:up,focus:change-header:Ready
- When
- GET endpoint is now available from
execute
andtransform
actions (it used to timeout due to lock conflict)fzf --listen --sync --bind 'focus:transform-header:curl -s localhost:$FZF_PORT?limit=0 | jq .'
- Added
offset-middle
action to place the current item is in the middle of the screen - fzf will not start the initial reader when
reload
orreload-sync
is bound tostart
event.fzf < /dev/null
or: | fzf
are no longer required and extraneousload
event will not fire due to the empty list.# Now this will work as expected. Previously, this would print an invalid header line. # `fzf < /dev/null` or `: | fzf` would fix the problem, but then an extraneous # `load` event would fire and the header would be prematurely updated. fzf --header 'Loading ...' --header-lines 1 \ --bind 'start:reload:sleep 1; ps -ef' \ --bind 'load:change-header:Loaded!'
- Fixed mouse support on Windows
- Fixed crash when using
--tiebreak=end
with very long items - zsh 5.0 compatibility (thanks to @LangLangBart)
- Fixed
--walker-skip
to also skip symlinks to directories - Fixed
result
event not fired when input stream is not complete - New tags will have
v
prefix so that they are available on https://proxy.golang.org/
0.53.0
Release highlights: https://junegunn.github.io/fzf/releases/0.53.0/
- Multi-line display
- See Processing multi-line items
- fzf can now display multi-line items
# All bash functions, highlighted declare -f | perl -0777 -pe 's/^}\n/}\0/gm' | bat --plain --language bash --color always | fzf --read0 --ansi --reverse --multi --highlight-line # Ripgrep multi-line output rg --pretty bash | perl -0777 -pe 's/\n\n/\n\0/gm' | fzf --read0 --ansi --multi --highlight-line --reverse --tmux 70%
- To disable multi-line display, use
--no-multi-line
- To disable multi-line display, use
- CTRL-R bindings of bash, zsh, and fish have been updated to leverage multi-line display
- The default
--pointer
and--marker
have been changed from>
to Unicode bar characters as they look better with multi-line items - Added
--marker-multi-line
to customize the select marker for multi-line entries with the default set to╻┃╹
╻First line ┃... ╹Last line
- Native tmux integration
- Added
--tmux
option to replace fzf-tmux script and simplify distribution# --tmux [center|top|bottom|left|right][,SIZE[%]][,SIZE[%]] # Center, 100% width and 70% height fzf --tmux 100%,70% --border horizontal --padding 1,2 # Left, 30% width fzf --tmux left,30% # Bottom, 50% height fzf --tmux bottom,50%
- To keep the implementation simple, it only uses popups. You need tmux 3.3 or later.
- To use
--tmux
in Vim plugin:let g:fzf_layout = { 'tmux': '100%,70%' }
- Added
- Added support for endless input streams
- See Browsing log stream with fzf
- Added
--tail=NUM
option to limit the number of items to keep in memory. This is useful when you want to browse an endless stream of data (e.g. log stream) with fzf while limiting memory usage.# Interactive filtering of a log stream tail -f *.log | fzf --tail 100000 --tac --no-sort --exact
- Better Windows Support
- fzf now works on Git bash (mintty) out of the box via winpty integration
- Many fixes and improvements for Windows
- man page is now embedded in the binary;
fzf --man
to see it - Changed the default
--scroll-off
to 3, as we think it's a better default - Process started by
execute
action now directly writes to and reads from/dev/tty
. Manual/dev/tty
redirection for interactive programs is no longer required.# Vim will work fine without /dev/tty redirection ls | fzf --bind 'space:execute:vim {}' > selected
- Added
print(...)
action to queue an arbitrary string to be printed on exit. This was mainly added to work around the limitation of--expect
where it's not compatible with--bind
on the same key and it would ignore other actions bound to it.# This doesn't work as expected because --expect is not compatible with --bind fzf --multi --expect ctrl-y --bind 'ctrl-y:select-all' # This is something you can do instead fzf --multi --bind 'enter:print()+accept,ctrl-y:select-all+print(ctrl-y)+accept'
- We also considered making them compatible, but realized that some users may have been relying on the current behavior.
NO_COLOR
environment variable is now respected. If the variable is set, fzf defaults to--no-color
unless otherwise specified.
0.52.1
- Fixed a critical bug in the Windows version
- Windows users are strongly encouraged to upgrade to this version
0.52.0
- Added
--highlight-line
to highlight the whole current line (à laset cursorline
of Vim) - Added color names for selected lines:
selected-fg
,selected-bg
, andselected-hl
fzf --border --multi --info inline-right --layout reverse --marker ▏ --pointer ▌ --prompt '▌ ' \ --highlight-line --color gutter:-1,selected-bg:238,selected-fg:146,current-fg:189
- Added
click-header
event that is triggered when the header section is clicked. When the event is triggered,$FZF_CLICK_HEADER_COLUMN
and$FZF_CLICK_HEADER_LINE
are set.fd --type f | fzf --header $'[Files] [Directories]' --header-first \ --bind 'click-header:transform: (( FZF_CLICK_HEADER_COLUMN <= 7 )) && echo "reload(fd --type f)" (( FZF_CLICK_HEADER_COLUMN >= 9 )) && echo "reload(fd --type d)" '
- Add
$FZF_COMPLETION_{DIR,PATH}_OPTS
for separately customizing the behavior of fuzzy completion# Set --walker options without 'follow' not to follow symbolic links FZF_COMPLETION_PATH_OPTS="--walker=file,dir,hidden" FZF_COMPLETION_DIR_OPTS="--walker=dir,hidden"
- Fixed Windows argument escaping
- Bug fixes and improvements
- The code was heavily refactored to allow using fzf as a library in Go programs. The API is still experimental and subject to change.
0.51.0
- Added a new environment variable
$FZF_POS
exported to the child processes. It's the vertical position of the cursor in the list starting from 1.# Toggle selection to the top or to the bottom seq 30 | fzf --multi --bind 'load:pos(10)' \ --bind 'shift-up:transform:for _ in $(seq $FZF_POS $FZF_MATCH_COUNT); do echo -n +toggle+up; done' \ --bind 'shift-down:transform:for _ in $(seq 1 $FZF_POS); do echo -n +toggle+down; done'
- Added
--with-shell
option to start child processes with a custom shell command and flagsgem list | fzf --with-shell 'ruby -e' \ --preview 'pp Gem::Specification.find_by_name({1})' \ --bind 'ctrl-o:execute-silent: spec = Gem::Specification.find_by_name({1}) [spec.homepage, *spec.metadata.filter { _1.end_with?("uri") }.values].uniq.each do system "open", _1 end '
- Added
change-multi
action for dynamically changing--multi
optionchange-multi
- enable multi-select mode with no limitchange-multi(NUM)
- enable multi-select mode with a limitchange-multi(0)
- disable multi-select mode
- Windows improvements
become
action is now supported on Windows- Unlike in *nix, this does not use
execve(2)
. Instead it spawns a new process and waits for it to finish, so the exact behavior may differ.
- Unlike in *nix, this does not use
- Fixed argument escaping for Windows cmd.exe. No redundant escaping of backslashes.
- Bug fixes and improvements
0.50.0
- Search performance optimization. You can observe 50%+ improvement in some scenarios.

- Added
jump
andjump-cancel
events that are triggered when leavingjump
mode# Default behavior fzf --bind space:jump # Same as jump-accept action fzf --bind space:jump,jump:accept # Accept on jump, abort on cancel fzf --bind space:jump,jump:accept,jump-cancel:abort # Change header on jump-cancel fzf --bind 'space:change-header(Type jump label)+jump,jump-cancel:change-header:Jump cancelled'
- Added a new environment variable
$FZF_KEY
exported to the child processes. It's the name of the last key pressed.fzf --bind 'space:jump,jump:accept,jump-cancel:transform:[[ $FZF_KEY =~ ctrl-c ]] && echo abort'
- fzf can be built with profiling options. See BUILD.md for more information.
- Bug fixes
0.49.0
- Ingestion performance improved by around 40% (more or less depending on options)
--info=hidden
and--info=inline-right
will no longer hide the horizontal separator by default. This gives you more flexibility in customizing the layout.fzf --border --info=inline-right fzf --border --info=inline-right --separator ═ fzf --border --info=inline-right --no-separator fzf --border --info=hidden fzf --border --info=hidden --separator ━ fzf --border --info=hidden --no-separator
- Added two environment variables exported to the child processes
FZF_PREVIEW_LABEL
FZF_BORDER_LABEL
# Use the current value of $FZF_PREVIEW_LABEL to determine which actions to perform git ls-files | fzf --header 'Press CTRL-P to change preview mode' \ --bind='ctrl-p:transform:[[ $FZF_PREVIEW_LABEL =~ cat ]] \ && echo "change-preview(git log --color=always \{})+change-preview-label([[ log ]])" \ || echo "change-preview(bat --color=always \{})+change-preview-label([[ cat ]])"'
- Renamed
track
action totrack-current
to highlight the difference between the global tracking state set by--track
and a one-off tracking actiontrack
is still available as an alias
- Added
untrack-current
andtoggle-track-current
actions*-current
actions are no-op when the global tracking state is set
- Bug fixes and minor improvements
0.48.1
- CTRL-T and ALT-C bindings can be disabled by setting
FZF_CTRL_T_COMMAND
andFZF_ALT_C_COMMAND
to empty strings respectively when sourcing the script# bash FZF_CTRL_T_COMMAND= FZF_ALT_C_COMMAND= eval "$(fzf --bash)" # zsh FZF_CTRL_T_COMMAND= FZF_ALT_C_COMMAND= eval "$(fzf --zsh)" # fish fzf --fish | FZF_CTRL_T_COMMAND= FZF_ALT_C_COMMAND= source
- Setting the variables after sourcing the script will have no effect
- Bug fixes
0.48.0
- Shell integration scripts are now embedded in the fzf binary. This simplifies the distribution, and the users are less likely to have problems caused by using incompatible scripts and binaries.
- bash
# Set up fzf key bindings and fuzzy completion eval "$(fzf --bash)"
- zsh
# Set up fzf key bindings and fuzzy completion eval "$(fzf --zsh)"
- fish
# Set up fzf key bindings fzf --fish | source
- bash
- Added options for customizing the behavior of the built-in walker
Option Description Default --walker=OPTS
Walker options ( [file][,dir][,follow][,hidden]
)file,follow,hidden
--walker-root=DIR
Root directory from which to start walker .
--walker-skip=DIRS
Comma-separated list of directory names to skip .git,node_modules
- Examples
# Built-in walker is only used by standalone fzf when $FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND is not set unset FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND fzf # default: --walker=file,follow,hidden --walker-root=. --walker-skip=.git,node_modules fzf --walker=file,dir,hidden,follow --walker-skip=.git,node_modules,target # Walker options in $FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS export FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS="--walker=file,dir,hidden,follow --walker-skip=.git,node_modules,target" fzf # Reading from STDIN; --walker is ignored seq 100 | fzf --walker=dir # Reading from $FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND; --walker is ignored export FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND='seq 100' fzf --walker=dir
- Examples
- Shell integration scripts have been updated to use the built-in walker with these new options and they are now much faster out of the box.
0.47.0
- Replaced "the default find command" with a built-in directory walker to simplify the code and to achieve better performance and consistent behavior across platforms.
This doesn't affect you if you have
$FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND
set.- Breaking changes:
- Unlike the previous "find" command, the new traversal code will list hidden files, but hidden directories will still be ignored
- No filtering of
devtmpfs
orproc
types - Traversal is parallelized, so the order of the entries will be different each time
- You may wonder why fzf implements directory walker anyway when it's a filter program following the Unix philosophy. But fzf has had the walker code for years to tackle the performance problem on Windows. And I decided to use the same approach on different platforms as well for the benefits listed above.
- Built-in walker is using the excellent charlievieth/fastwalk library, which easily outperforms its competitors and supports safely following symlinks.
- Breaking changes:
- Added
$FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS_FILE
to allow managing default options in a file- See #3618
- Option precedence from lower to higher
- Options read from
$FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS_FILE
- Options from
$FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS
- Options from command-line arguments
- Options read from
- Bug fixes and improvements
0.46.1
- Bug fixes and improvements
- Fixed Windows binaries
- Downgraded Go version to 1.20 to support older versions of Windows
- Updated rivo/uniseg dependency to v0.4.6
0.46.0
- Added two new events
result
- triggered when the filtering for the current query is complete and the result list is readyresize
- triggered when the terminal size is changed
- fzf now exports the following environment variables to the child processes
Variable Description FZF_LINES
Number of lines fzf takes up excluding padding and margin FZF_COLUMNS
Number of columns fzf takes up excluding padding and margin FZF_TOTAL_COUNT
Total number of items FZF_MATCH_COUNT
Number of matched items FZF_SELECT_COUNT
Number of selected items FZF_QUERY
Current query string FZF_PROMPT
Prompt string FZF_ACTION
The name of the last action performed - This allows you to write sophisticated transformations like so
# Script to dynamically resize the preview window transformer=' # 1 line for info, another for prompt, and 2 more lines for preview window border lines=$(( FZF_LINES - FZF_MATCH_COUNT - 4 )) if [[ $FZF_MATCH_COUNT -eq 0 ]]; then echo "change-preview-window:hidden" elif [[ $lines -gt 3 ]]; then echo "change-preview-window:$lines" elif [[ $FZF_PREVIEW_LINES -ne 3 ]]; then echo "change-preview-window:3" fi ' seq 10000 | fzf --preview 'seq {} 10000' --preview-window up \ --bind "result:transform:$transformer" \ --bind "resize:transform:$transformer"
- And we're phasing out
{fzf:prompt}
and{fzf:action}
- This allows you to write sophisticated transformations like so
- Changed mattn/go-runewidth dependency to rivo/uniseg for accurate results
- Set
--ambidouble
if your terminal displays ambiguous width characters (e.g. box-drawing characters for borders) as 2 columns RUNEWIDTH_EASTASIAN=1
is still respected for backward compatibility, but it's recommended that you use this new option instead
- Set
- Bug fixes
0.45.0
- Added
transform
action to conditionally perform a series of actions# Disallow selecting an empty line echo -e "1. Hello\n2. Goodbye\n\n3. Exit" | fzf --height '~100%' --reverse --header 'Select one' \ --bind 'enter:transform:[[ -n {} ]] && echo accept || echo "change-header:Invalid selection"' # Move cursor past the empty line echo -e "1. Hello\n2. Goodbye\n\n3. Exit" | fzf --height '~100%' --reverse --header 'Select one' \ --bind 'enter:transform:[[ -n {} ]] && echo accept || echo "change-header:Invalid selection"' \ --bind 'focus:transform:[[ -n {} ]] && exit; [[ {fzf:action} =~ up$ ]] && echo up || echo down' # A single key binding to toggle between modes fd --type file | fzf --prompt 'Files> ' \ --header 'CTRL-T: Switch between Files/Directories' \ --bind 'ctrl-t:transform:[[ ! {fzf:prompt} =~ Files ]] && echo "change-prompt(Files> )+reload(fd --type file)" || echo "change-prompt(Directories> )+reload(fd --type directory)"'
- Added placeholder expressions
{fzf:action}
- The name of the last action performed{fzf:prompt}
- Prompt string (including ANSI color codes){fzf:query}
- Synonym for{q}
- Added support for negative height
# Terminal height minus 1, so you can still see the command line fzf --height=-1
- This handles a terminal resize better than
--height=$(($(tput lines) - 1))
- This handles a terminal resize better than
- Added
accept-or-print-query
action that acts likeaccept
but prints the current query when there's no match for the query# You can make CTRL-R paste the current query when there's no match export FZF_CTRL_R_OPTS='--bind enter:accept-or-print-query'
- Note that there are alternative ways to implement the same strategy
# 'become' is apparently more versatile but it's not available on Windows. export FZF_CTRL_R_OPTS='--bind "enter:become:if [ -z {} ]; then echo {q}; else echo {}; fi"' # Using the new 'transform' action export FZF_CTRL_R_OPTS='--bind "enter:transform:[ -z {} ] && echo print-query || echo accept"'
- Note that there are alternative ways to implement the same strategy
- Added
show-header
andhide-header
actions - Bug fixes
0.44.1

- Shell extensions
- Updated bash completion for fzf options
- bash key bindings no longer requires perl; it will use awk or mawk instead if perl is not found
- Basic context-aware completion for ssh command
- Applied
--scheme=path
for better ordering of the result
- Bug fixes and improvements
0.42.0
- Added new info style:
--info=right
- Added new info style:
--info=inline-right
- Added new border style
thinblock
which uses symbols for legacy computing one eighth block elements- Similarly to
block
, this style is suitable when using a different background color because the window is completely contained within the border.BAT_THEME=GitHub fzf --info=right --border=thinblock --preview-window=border-thinblock \ --margin=3 --scrollbar=▏▕ --preview='bat --color=always --style=numbers {}' \ --color=light,query:238,fg:238,bg:251,bg+:249,gutter:251,border:248,preview-bg:253
- This style may not render correctly depending on the font and the terminal emulator.
- Similarly to
0.41.1
- Fixed a bug where preview window is not updated when
--disabled
is set and a reload is triggered bychange:reload
binding
0.41.0
- Added color name
preview-border
andpreview-scrollbar
- Added new border style
block

0.40.0
- Added
zero
event that is triggered when there's no match# Reload the candidate list when there's no match echo $RANDOM | fzf --bind 'zero:reload(echo $RANDOM)+clear-query' --height 3
- New actions
- Added
track
action which makes fzf track the current item when the search result is updated. If the user manually moves the cursor, or the item is not in the updated search result, tracking is automatically disabled. Tracking is useful when you want to see the surrounding items by deleting the query string.# Narrow down the list with a query, point to a command, # and hit CTRL-T to see its surrounding commands. export FZF_CTRL_R_OPTS=" --preview 'echo {}' --preview-window up:3:hidden:wrap --bind 'ctrl-/:toggle-preview' --bind 'ctrl-t:track+clear-query' --bind 'ctrl-y:execute-silent(echo -n {2..} | pbcopy)+abort' --color header:italic --header 'Press CTRL-Y to copy command into clipboard'"
- Added

- Added
toggle-track
action
- Added
- Fixed
--track
behavior when used with--tac
- However, using
--track
with--tac
is not recommended. The resulting behavior can be very confusing.
- However, using

0.39.0
- Added
one
event that is triggered when there's only one match# Automatically select the only match seq 10 | fzf --bind one:accept
- Added
--track
option that makes fzf track the current selection when the result list is updated. This can be useful when browsing logs using fzf with sorting disabled.git log --oneline --graph --color=always | nl | fzf --ansi --track --no-sort --layout=reverse-list
- If you use
--listen
option without a port number fzf will automatically allocate an available port and export it as$FZF_PORT
environment variable.# Automatic port assignment fzf --listen --bind 'start:execute-silent:echo $FZF_PORT > /tmp/fzf-port' # Say hello curl "localhost:$(cat /tmp/fzf-port)" -d 'preview:echo Hello, fzf is listening on $FZF_PORT.'
- A carriage return and a line feed character will be rendered as dim ␍ and
␊ respectively.
printf "foo\rbar\nbaz" | fzf --read0 --preview 'echo {}'
- fzf will stop rendering a non-displayable characters as a space. This will
likely cause less glitches in the preview window.
fzf --preview 'head -1000 /dev/random'
- Bug fixes and improvements
0.38.0
- New actions
become(...)
- Replace the current fzf process with the specified command usingexecve(2)
system call. See https://github.com/junegunn/fzf#turning-into-a-different-process for more information.# Open selected files in Vim fzf --multi --bind 'enter:become(vim {+})' # Open the file in Vim and go to the line git grep --line-number . | fzf --delimiter : --nth 3.. --bind 'enter:become(vim {1} +{2})'
- This action is not supported on Windows
show-preview

action is triggered
0.37.0
- Added a way to customize the separator of inline info
fzf --info 'inline: ╱ ' --prompt '╱ ' --color prompt:bright-yellow
- New event
focus
- Triggered when the focus changes due to a vertical cursor movement or a search result updatefzf --bind 'focus:transform-preview-label:echo [ {} ]' --preview 'cat {}' # Any action bound to the event runs synchronously and thus can make the interface sluggish # e.g. lolcat isn't one of the fastest programs, and every cursor movement in # fzf will be noticeably affected by its execution time fzf --bind 'focus:transform-preview-label:echo [ {} ] | lolcat -f' --preview 'cat {}' # Beware not to introduce an infinite loop seq 10 | fzf --bind 'focus:up' --cycle
- New actions
change-border-label
change-preview-label
transform-border-label
transform-preview-label
- Bug fixes and improvements
0.36.0
- Added
--listen=HTTP_PORT
option to start HTTP server. It allows external processes to send actions to perform via POST method.# Start HTTP server on port 6266 fzf --listen 6266 # Send actions to the server curl -XPOST localhost:6266 -d 'reload(seq 100)+change-prompt(hundred> )'
- Added draggable scrollbar to the main search window and the preview window
# Hide scrollbar fzf --no-scrollbar # Customize scrollbar fzf --scrollbar ┆ --color scrollbar:blue
- New event
- Added
load
event that is triggered when the input stream is complete and the initial processing of the list is complete.# Change the prompt to "loaded" when the input stream is complete (seq 10; sleep 1; seq 11 20) | fzf --prompt 'Loading> ' --bind 'load:change-prompt:Loaded> ' # You can use it instead of 'start' event without `--sync` if asynchronous # trigger is not an issue. (seq 10; sleep 1; seq 11 20) | fzf --bind 'load:last'
- Added
- New actions
- Added
pos(...)
action to move the cursor to the numeric positionfirst
andlast
are equivalent topos(1)
andpos(-1)
respectively
# Put the cursor on the 10th item seq 100 | fzf --sync --bind 'start:pos(10)' # Put the cursor on the 10th to last item seq 100 | fzf --sync --bind 'start:pos(-10)'
- Added
reload-sync(...)
action which replaces the current list only after the reload process is complete. This is useful when the command takes a while to produce the initial output and you don't want fzf to run against an empty list while the command is running.# You can still filter and select entries from the initial list for 3 seconds seq 100 | fzf --bind 'load:reload-sync(sleep 3; seq 1000)+unbind(load)'
- Added
next-selected
andprev-selected
actions to move between selected items# `next-selected` will move the pointer to the next selected item below the current line # `prev-selected` will move the pointer to the previous selected item above the current line seq 10 | fzf --multi --bind ctrl-n:next-selected,ctrl-p:prev-selected # Both actions respect --layout option seq 10 | fzf --multi --bind ctrl-n:next-selected,ctrl-p:prev-selected --layout reverse
- Added
change-query(...)
action that simply changes the query string to the given static string. This can be useful when used with--listen
.curl localhost:6266 -d "change-query:$(date)"
- Added
transform-prompt(...)
action for transforming the prompt string using an external command# Press space to change the prompt string using an external command # (only the first line of the output is taken) fzf --bind 'space:reload(ls),load:transform-prompt(printf "%s> " "$(date)")'
- Added
transform-query(...)
action for transforming the query string using an external command# Press space to convert the query to uppercase letters fzf --bind 'space:transform-query(tr "[:lower:]" "[:upper:]" <<< {q})' # Bind it to 'change' event for automatic conversion fzf --bind 'change:transform-query(tr "[:lower:]" "[:upper:]" <<< {q})' # Can only type numbers fzf --bind 'change:transform-query(sed "s/[^0-9]//g" <<< {q})'
put
action can optionally take an argument string# a will put 'alpha' on the prompt, ctrl-b will put 'bravo' fzf --bind 'a:put+put(lpha),ctrl-b:put(bravo)'
- Added
- Added color name
preview-label
for--preview-label
(defaults tolabel
for--border-label
) - Better support for (Windows) terminals where each box-drawing character
takes 2 columns. Set
RUNEWIDTH_EASTASIAN
environment variable to0
or1
.- On Vim, the variable will be automatically set if
&ambiwidth
isdouble
- On Vim, the variable will be automatically set if
- Behavior changes
- fzf will always execute the preview command if the command template
contains
{q}
even when it's empty. If you prefer the old behavior, you'll have to check if{q}
is empty in your command.# This will show // even when the query is empty : | fzf --preview 'echo /{q}/' # But if you don't want it, : | fzf --preview '[ -n {q} ] || exit; echo /{q}/'
double-click
will behave the same asenter
unless otherwise specified, so you don't have to repeat the same action twice in--bind
in most cases.# No need to bind 'double-click' to the same action fzf --bind 'enter:execute:less {}' # --bind 'double-click:execute:less {}'
- If the color for
separator
is not specified, it will default to the color forborder
. Same holds true forscrollbar
. This is to reduce the number of configuration items required to achieve a consistent color scheme. - If
follow
flag is specified in--preview-window
option, fzf will automatically scroll to the bottom of the streaming preview output. But when the user manually scrolls the window, the following stops. With this version, fzf will resume following if the user scrolls the window to the bottom. - Default border style on Windows is changed to
sharp
because some Windows terminals are not capable of displayingrounded
border characters correctly.
- fzf will always execute the preview command if the command template
contains
- Minor bug fixes and improvements
0.35.1
- Fixed a bug where fzf with
--tiebreak=chunk
crashes on inverse match query - Fixed a bug where clicking above fzf would paste escape sequences
0.35.0
- Added
start
event that is triggered only once when fzf finder starts. Since fzf consumes the input stream asynchronously, the input list is not available unless you use--sync
.seq 100 | fzf --multi --sync --bind 'start:last+select-all+preview(echo welcome)'
- Added
--border-label
and--border-label-pos
for putting label on the border# ANSI color codes are supported # (with https://github.com/busyloop/lolcat) label=$(curl -s http://metaphorpsum.com/sentences/1 | lolcat -f) # Border label at the center fzf --height=10 --border --border-label="╢ $label ╟" --color=label:italic:black # Left-aligned (positive integer) fzf --height=10 --border --border-label="╢ $label ╟" --border-label-pos=3 --color=label:italic:black # Right-aligned (negative integer) on the bottom line (:bottom) fzf --height=10 --border --border-label="╢ $label ╟" --border-label-pos=-3:bottom --color=label:italic:black
- Also added
--preview-label
and--preview-label-pos
for the border of the preview windowfzf --preview 'cat {}' --border --preview-label=' Preview ' --preview-label-pos=2
- Info panel (match counter) will be followed by a horizontal separator by
default
- Use
--no-separator
or--separator=''
to hide the separator - You can specify an arbitrary string that is repeated to form the
horizontal separator. e.g.
--separator=╸
- The color of the separator can be customized via
--color=separator:...
- ANSI color codes are also supported
fzf --separator=╸ --color=separator:green fzf --separator=$(lolcat -f -F 1.4 <<< ▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▆▅▄▃▂▁▁) --info=inline
- Use
- Added
--border=bold
and--border=double
along with--preview-window=border-bold
and--preview-window=border-double
0.34.0
- Added support for adaptive
--height
. If the--height
value is prefixed with~
, fzf will automatically determine the height in the range according to the input size.seq 1 | fzf --height ~70% --border --padding 1 --margin 1 seq 10 | fzf --height ~70% --border --padding 1 --margin 1 seq 100 | fzf --height ~70% --border --padding 1 --margin 1
- There are a few limitations
- Not compatible with percent top/bottom margin/padding
# This is not allowed (top/bottom margin in percent value) fzf --height ~50% --border --margin 5%,10% # This is allowed (top/bottom margin in fixed value) fzf --height ~50% --border --margin 2,10%
- fzf will not start until it can determine the right height for the input
# fzf will open immediately (sleep 2; seq 10) | fzf --height 50% # fzf will open after 2 seconds (sleep 2; seq 10) | fzf --height ~50% (sleep 2; seq 1000) | fzf --height ~50%
- Not compatible with percent top/bottom margin/padding
- There are a few limitations
- Fixed tcell renderer used to render full-screen fzf on Windows
--no-clear
is deprecated. Usereload
action instead.
0.33.0
- Added
--scheme=[default|path|history]
option to choose scoring scheme- (Experimental)
- We updated the scoring algorithm in 0.32.0, however we have learned that
this new scheme (
default
) is not always giving the optimal result path
: Additional bonus point is only given to the characters after path separator. You might want to choose this scheme if you have many files with spaces in their paths.history
: No additional bonus points are given so that we give more weight to the chronological ordering. This is equivalent to the scoring scheme before 0.32.0. This also sets--tiebreak=index
.
- ANSI color sequences with colon delimiters are now supported.
printf "\e[38;5;208mOption 1\e[m\nOption 2" | fzf --ansi printf "\e[38:5:208mOption 1\e[m\nOption 2" | fzf --ansi
- Support
border-{up,down}
as the synonyms forborder-{top,bottom}
in--preview-window
- Added support for ANSI
strikethrough
printf "\e[9mdeleted" | fzf --ansi fzf --color fg+:strikethrough
0.32.1
- Fixed incorrect ordering of
--tiebreak=chunk
- fzf-tmux will show fzf border instead of tmux popup border (requires tmux 3.3)
fzf-tmux -p70% fzf-tmux -p70% --color=border:bright-red fzf-tmux -p100%,60% --color=border:bright-yellow --border=horizontal --padding 1,5 --margin 1,0 fzf-tmux -p70%,100% --color=border:bright-green --border=vertical # Key bindings (CTRL-T, CTRL-R, ALT-C) will use these options export FZF_TMUX_OPTS='-p100%,60% --color=border:green --border=horizontal --padding 1,5 --margin 1,0'
0.32.0
- Updated the scoring algorithm
- Different bonus points to different categories of word boundaries
(listed higher to lower bonus point)
- Word after whitespace characters or beginning of the string
- Word after common delimiter characters (
/,:;|
) - Word after other non-word characters
# foo/bar.sh` is preferred over `foo-bar.sh` on `bar` fzf --query=bar --height=4 << EOF foo-bar.sh foo/bar.sh EOF
- Different bonus points to different categories of word boundaries
(listed higher to lower bonus point)
- Added a new tiebreak
chunk
- Favors the line with shorter matched chunk. A chunk is a set of consecutive non-whitespace characters.
- Unlike the default
length
, this scheme works well with tabular input# length prefers item #1, because the whole line is shorter, # chunk prefers item #2, because the matched chunk ("foo") is shorter fzf --height=6 --header-lines=2 --tiebreak=chunk --reverse --query=fo << "EOF" N | Field1 | Field2 | Field3 - | ------ | ------ | ------ 1 | hello | foobar | baz 2 | world | foo | bazbaz EOF
- If the input does not contain any spaces,
chunk
is equivalent tolength
. But we're not going to set it as the default because it is computationally more expensive.
- Bug fixes and improvements
0.31.0
- Added support for an alternative preview window layout that is activated
when the size of the preview window is smaller than a certain threshold.
# If the width of the preview window is smaller than 50 columns, # it will be displayed above the search window. fzf --preview 'cat {}' --preview-window 'right,50%,border-left,<50(up,30%,border-bottom)' # Or you can just hide it like so fzf --preview 'cat {}' --preview-window '<50(hidden)'
- fzf now uses SGR mouse mode to properly support mouse on larger terminals
- You can now use characters that do not satisfy
unicode.IsGraphic
constraint for--marker
,--pointer
, and--ellipsis
. Allows Nerd Fonts and stuff. Use at your own risk. - Bug fixes and improvements
- Shell extension
kill
completion now requires trigger sequence (**
) for consistency
0.30.0
- Fixed cursor flickering over the screen by hiding it during rendering
- Added
--ellipsis
option. You can take advantage of it to make fzf effectively search non-visible parts of the item.# Search against hidden line numbers on the far right nl /usr/share/dict/words | awk '{printf "%s%1000s\n", $2, $1}' | fzf --nth=-1 --no-hscroll --ellipsis='' | awk '{print $2}'
- Added

- You can rotate through the different options separated by
- Fixed rendering of the prompt line when overflow occurs with
--info=inline
0.28.0
- Added
--header-first
option to print header before the prompt linefzf --header $'Welcome to fzf\n▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔' --reverse --height 30% --border --header-first
- Added
--scroll-off=LINES
option (similar toscrolloff
option of Vim)- You can set it to a very large number so that the cursor stays in the
middle of the screen while scrolling
fzf --scroll-off=5 fzf --scroll-off=999
- You can set it to a very large number so that the cursor stays in the
middle of the screen while scrolling
- Fixed bug where preview window is not updated on
reload
(#2644) - fzf on Windows will also use
$SHELL
to execute external programs- See #2638 and #2647
- Thanks to @rashil2000, @vovcacik, and @janlazo
0.27.3
- Preview window is
hidden
by default when there arepreview
bindings but--preview
command is not given - Fixed bug where
{n}
is not properly reset onreload
- Fixed bug where spinner is not displayed on
reload
- Enhancements in tcell renderer for Windows (#2616)
- Vim plugin
sinklist
is added as a synonym tosink*
so that it's easier to add a function to a spec dictionarylet spec = { 'source': 'ls', 'options': ['--multi', '--preview', 'cat {}'] } function spec.sinklist(matches) echom string(a:matches) endfunction call fzf#run(fzf#wrap(spec))

" fzf will read the stream file while allowing other processes to append to it call fzf#run({'source': 'cat /dev/null > /tmp/stream; tail -f /tmp/stream'})
- It is now possible to open popup window relative to the current window
let g:fzf_layout = { 'window': { 'width': 0.9, 'height': 0.6, 'relative': v:true, 'yoffset': 1.0 } }
- Vim plugin will stop immediately even when the source command hasn't finished

--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

- Unicode spinner
- More keys and actions for
--bind
- Added PowerShell script for downloading Windows binary
- Vim plugin: Built-in floating windows support
let g:fzf_layout = { 'window': { 'width': 0.9, 'height': 0.6 } }

- CTRL-R will start with the current command-line as the initial query
- CTRL-R properly supports multi-line commands
- Fuzzy completion API changed
# 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
andpreview-bg
for--color
)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.: | fzf --bind 'change:reload:seq {q}' --phony
- Added
clear-query
andclear-selection
actions for--bind
- It is now possible to split a composite bind action over multiple
--bind
expressions by prefixing the later ones with+
.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.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.
# 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 selectedseq 100 | fzf --multi 3 --reverse --height 50%
- If a placeholder expression for
--preview
andexecute
action (and the newreload
action) containsf
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 exceedARG_MAX
.# 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 withselect-all
andtoggle-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.
# usage: _fzf_setup_completion path|dir COMMANDS... _fzf_setup_completion path git kubectl
- Info line style can be changed by
--info=STYLE

--no-unicode
option for drawing borders in non-Unicode, ASCII characters FZF_PREVIEW_LINES
andFZF_PREVIEW_COLUMNS
are exported to preview process- fzf still overrides
LINES
andCOLUMNS
as before, but they may be reset by the default shell.
- fzf still overrides
- Bug fixes and improvements
- Built with Go 1.12.1

if any of the placeholder expressions (e.g.
{q}
,{+}
) evaluates to a non-empty string. - More keys for binding:
shift-{up,down}

- Right click is now bound to
toggle
action by default --bind
understandsleft-click
andright-click
- Right click is now bound to

- e.g.
ctrl-space
is allowed in--bind
0.16.2
- Dropped ncurses dependency
- Binaries for freebsd, openbsd, arm5, arm6, arm7, and arm8

. Multiple actions can be chained using+
separator.- e.g.
fzf --bind 'ctrl-y:execute(echo -n {} | pbcopy)+abort'
- e.g.
--preview-window
with size 0 is allowed. This is used to make fzf execute preview command in the background without displaying the result.- Minor bug fixes and improvements

- Added
--no-bold
(and--bold
) option - Improved escape sequence processing for WSL
- Added support for
alt-[0-9]
,f11
, andf12
for--bind
and--expect
0.15.7
- Fixed panic when color is disabled and header lines contain ANSI colors
0.15.6
- Windows binaries! (@kelleyma49)
- Fixed the bug where header lines are cleared when preview window is toggled

- Fixed cursor keys (or any key sequence that starts with ESC) on WSL by making fzf wait for additional keystrokes after ESC for up to 100ms
0.15.5
- Setting foreground color will no longer set background color to black
- e.g.
fzf --color fg:153
- e.g.
--tiebreak=end
will consider relative position instead of absolute distance- Updated
fzf#wrap
function to respectg:fzf_colors
0.15.4
- Added support for range expression in preview and execute action
- e.g.
ls -l | fzf --preview="echo user={3} when={-4..-2}; cat {-1}" --header-lines=1
{q}
will be replaced to the single-quoted string of the current query
- e.g.
- Fixed to properly handle unicode whitespace characters
- Display scroll indicator in preview window
- Inverse search term will use exact matcher by default
- This is a breaking change, but I believe it makes much more sense. It is
almost impossible to predict which entries will be filtered out due to
a fuzzy inverse term. You can still perform inverse-fuzzy-match by
prepending
!'
to the term.

$SHELL
instead ofsh
forexecute
action and$FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND
(#481)- Changes in fuzzy completion API
_fzf_compgen_{path,dir}
_fzf_complete_COMMAND_post
for post-processing
0.11.2
--tiebreak
now accepts comma-separated list of sort criteria- Each criterion should appear only once in the list
index
is only allowed at the end of the listindex
is implicitly appended to the list when not specified- Default is
length
(or equivalentlylength,index
)
begin
criterion will ignore leading whitespaces when calculating the index- Added
toggle-in
andtoggle-out
actions- Switch direction depending on
--reverse
-ness export FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS="--bind tab:toggle-out,shift-tab:toggle-in"
- Switch direction depending on
- Reduced the initial delay when
--tac
is not given- fzf defers the initial rendering of the screen up to 100ms if the input
stream is ongoing to prevent unnecessary redraw during the initial
phase. However, 100ms delay is quite noticeable and might give the
impression that fzf is not snappy enough. This commit reduces the
maximum delay down to 20ms when
--tac
is not specified, in which case the input list quickly fills the entire screen.

mode- Backward scan when
--tiebreak=end
is set
0.10.4
- Fixed to remove ANSI code from output when
--with-nth
is set
0.10.3
- Fixed slow performance of
--with-nth
when used with--delimiter
- Regular expression engine of Golang as of now is very slow, so the fixed version will treat the given delimiter pattern as a plain string instead of a regular expression unless it contains special characters and is a valid regular expression.
- Simpler regular expression for delimiter for better performance
0.10.2
Fixes and improvements
- Improvement in perceived response time of queries
- Eager, efficient rune array conversion

- e.g.
- Added
delete-char/eof
action to differentiateCTRL-D
andDEL
Minor improvements/fixes
- Fixed to allow binding colon and comma keys
- Fixed ANSI processor to handle color regions spanning multiple lines
0.10.0
New features
- More actions for
--bind
select-all
deselect-all
toggle-all
ignore
execute(...)
action for running arbitrary command without leaving fzffzf --bind "ctrl-m:execute(less {})"
fzf --bind "ctrl-t:execute(tmux new-window -d 'vim {}')"
- If the command contains parentheses, use any of the follows alternative
notations to avoid parse errors
execute[...]
execute~...~
execute!...!
execute@...@
execute#...#
execute$...$
execute%...%
execute^...^
execute&...&
execute*...*
execute;...;
execute/.../
execute|...|
execute:...
- This is the special form that frees you from parse errors as it does not expect the closing character
- The catch is that it should be the last one in the comma-separated list
- Added support for optional search history
--history HISTORY_FILE
- When used,
CTRL-N
andCTRL-P
are automatically remapped tonext-history
andprevious-history
- When used,

0.9.12
New features
- Added
--bind
option for custom key bindings
Bug fixes
- Fixed to update "inline-info" immediately after terminal resize
- Fixed ANSI code offset calculation
0.9.11
New features
- Added
--inline-info
option for saving screen estate (#202)- Useful inside Neovim
- e.g.
let $FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS = $FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS.' --inline-info'
Bug fixes
- Invalid mutation of input on case conversion (#209)
- Smart-case for each term in extended-search mode (#208)
- Fixed double-click result when scroll offset is positive
0.9.10
Improvements

--tiebreak
option (#191) - Added
--no-hscroll
option (#193) - Visual indication of
--toggle-sort
(#194)
0.9.8
Bug fixes
- Fixed Unicode case handling (#186)
- Fixed to terminate on RuneError (#185)
0.9.7
New features
- Added
--toggle-sort
option (#173)--toggle-sort=ctrl-r
is applied toCTRL-R
shell extension
Bug fixes
- Fixed to print empty line if
--expect
is set and fzf is completed by--select-1
or--exit-0
(#172) - Fixed to allow comma character as an argument to
--expect
option
0.9.6
New features
Added --expect
option (#163)
If you provide a comma-separated list of keys with --expect
option, fzf will
allow you to select the match and complete the finder when any of the keys is
pressed. Additionally, fzf will print the name of the key pressed as the first
line of the output so that your script can decide what to do next based on the
information.
fzf --expect=ctrl-v,ctrl-t,alt-s,f1,f2,~,@
The updated vim plugin uses this option to implement ctrlp-compatible key bindings.
Bug fixes
- Fixed to ignore ANSI escape code
\e[K
(#162)
0.9.5
New features
Added --ansi
option (#150)
If you give --ansi
option to fzf, fzf will interpret ANSI color codes from
the input, display the item with the ANSI colors (true colors are not
supported), and strips the codes from the output. This option is off by
default as it entails some overhead.
Improvements
Reduced initial memory footprint (#151)
By removing unnecessary copy of pointers, fzf will use significantly smaller
amount of memory when it's started. The difference is hugely noticeable when
the input is extremely large. (e.g. locate / | fzf
)
Bug fixes
- Fixed panic on
--no-sort --filter ''
(#149)
0.9.4
New features
Added --tac
option to reverse the order of the input.
One might argue that this option is unnecessary since we can already put tac
or tail -r
in the command pipeline to achieve the same result. However, the
advantage of --tac
is that it does not block until the input is complete.
Backward incompatible changes
Changed behavior on --no-sort
--no-sort
option will no longer reverse the display order within finder. You
may want to use the new --tac
option with --no-sort
.
history | fzf +s --tac
Improvements
--filter
will not block when sort is disabled
When fzf works in filtering mode (--filter
) and sort is disabled
(--no-sort
), there's no need to block until input is complete. The new
version of fzf will print the matches on-the-fly when the following condition
is met:
--filter TERM --no-sort [--no-tac --no-sync]
or simply:
-f TERM +s
This change removes unnecessary delay in the use cases like the following:
fzf -f xxx +s | head -5
However, in this case, fzf processes the lines sequentially, so it cannot
utilize multiple cores, and fzf will run slightly slower than the previous
mode of execution where filtering is done in parallel after the entire input
is loaded. If the user is concerned about this performance problem, one can
add --sync
option to re-enable buffering.
0.9.3
New features
- Added
--sync
option for multi-staged filtering
Improvements
--select-1
and--exit-0
will start finder immediately when the condition cannot be met
