---

• 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 window

  fzf --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

• 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%

• Fixed tcell renderer used to render full-screen fzf on Windows
• --no-clear is deprecated. Use reload 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 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 for border-{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

• 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 to
    length. 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 rebind action for restoring bindings after unbind
  • Switching between Ripgrep mode and fzf mode
    
• Bug fixes and improvements

0.29.0

• Added change-preview(...) action to change the --preview command
  • cf. preview(...) is a one-off action that doesn't change the default
    preview command
• Added change-preview-window(...) action
  • You can rotate through the different options separated by |

    fzf --preview 'cat {}' --preview-window right,40% \
        --bind 'ctrl-/:change-preview-window(right,70%|down,40%,border-top|hidden|)'

• 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 line

  fzf --header $'Welcome to fzf\n▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔' --reverse --height 30% --border --header-first

• Added --scroll-off=LINES option (similar to scrolloff 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

• 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 are preview bindings but --preview command is not given
• Fixed bug where {n} is not properly reset on reload
• Fixed bug where spinner is not displayed on reload
• Enhancements in tcell renderer for Windows (#2616)
• Vim plugin
  • sinklist is added as a synonym to sink* so that it's easier to add a function to a spec dictionary

    let spec = { 'source': 'ls', 'options': ['--multi', '--preview', 'cat {}'] }
    function spec.sinklist(matches)
      echom string(a:matches)
    endfunction
    
    call fzf#run(fzf#wrap(spec))

  • Vim 7 compatibility
