$SHELL
instead ofsh
forexecute
action and$FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND
(#481)- Changes in fuzzy completion API
_fzf_compgen_{path,dir}
_fzf_complete_COMMAND_post

- 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.

- Added
--tabstop=SPACES
option
- Added OR operator for extended-search mode
- Added
--execute-multi
action - Fixed incorrect cursor position when unicode wide characters are used in
--prompt
- Fixes and improvements in shell extensions
- Extended-search mode is now enabled by default
--extended-exact
is deprecated and instead we have--exact
for orthogonally controlling "exactness" of search
- Fixed not to display non-printable characters
- Added
double-click
for--bind
option - More robust handling of SIGWINCH
- Fixed panic when trying to set colors after colors are disabled (#370)
- Fixed unserialized interrupt handling during execute action which often caused invalid memory access and crash
- Changed
--tiebreak=length
(default) to use trimmed length when--nth
is used
- Replaced
--header-file
with--header
option --header
and--header-lines
can be used together- Changed exit status
- 0: Okay
- 1: No match
- 2: Error
- 130: Interrupted
- 64-bit linux binary is statically-linked with ncurses to avoid compatibility issues.
'
-prefix to unquote the term in--extended-exact
mode- Backward scan when
--tiebreak=end
is set
- Fixed to remove ANSI code from output when
--with-nth
is set
- 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
- Improvement in perceived response time of queries
- Eager, efficient rune array conversion
- Graceful exit when failed to initialize ncurses (invalid $TERM)
- Improved ranking algorithm when
--nth
option is set - Changed the default command not to fail when there are files whose names start with dash
- Added
--margin
option - Added options for sticky header
--header-file
--header-lines
- Added
cancel
action which clears the input or closes the finder when the input is already empty- e.g.
export FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS="--bind esc:cancel"
- e.g.
- Added
delete-char/eof
action to differentiateCTRL-D
andDEL
- Fixed to allow binding colon and comma keys
- Fixed ANSI processor to handle color regions spanning multiple lines
- More actions for
--bind
select-all
deselect-all
toggle-all
ignore
execute(...)
action for running arbitrary command without leaving fzffzf --bind "ctrl-m:execute(less {})"
fzf --bind "ctrl-t:execute(tmux new-window -d 'vim {}')"
- If the command contains parentheses, use any of the follows alternative
notations to avoid parse errors
execute[...]
execute~...~
execute!...!
execute@...@
execute#...#
execute$...$
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,
--history-size MAX_ENTRIES
(default: 1000)
- Cyclic scrolling can be enabled with
--cycle
- Fixed the bug where the spinner was not spinning on idle input stream
- e.g.
sleep 100 | fzf
- e.g.
- Added synonyms for key names that can be specified for
--bind
,--toggle-sort
, and--expect
- Fixed the color of multi-select marker on the current line
- Fixed to allow
^pattern$
in extended-search mode
- Color customization with the extended
--color
option
- Fixed premature termination of Reader in the presence of a long line which is longer than 64KB
- Added
--bind
option for custom key bindings
- Fixed to update "inline-info" immediately after terminal resize
- Fixed ANSI code offset calculation
- Added
--inline-info
option for saving screen estate (#202)- Useful inside Neovim
- e.g.
let $FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS = $FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS.' --inline-info'
- 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
- Performance optimization
- Less aggressive memoization to limit memory usage
- Added color scheme for light background:
--color=light
- Added
--tiebreak
option (#191) - Added
--no-hscroll
option (#193) - Visual indication of
--toggle-sort
(#194)
- Fixed Unicode case handling (#186)
- Fixed to terminate on RuneError (#185)
- Added
--toggle-sort
option (#173)--toggle-sort=ctrl-r
is applied toCTRL-R
shell extension
- 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
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.
- Fixed to ignore ANSI escape code
\e[K
(#162)
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.
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
)
- Fixed panic on
--no-sort --filter ''
(#149)
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.
--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
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.
- Added
--sync
option for multi-staged filtering
--select-1
and--exit-0
will start finder immediately when the condition cannot be met
