Steven vanZyl a82d93630f Fix DYM and add aliases
Fixed the use-package! declaration for eshell-did-you-mean since it
needed a different mode in the :after than I thought.
I also put together a quick hack to try and fix an issue with
did-you-mean, but it doesn't seem to work reliably right now. More
testing required.

Also added two aliases, one `gg` for to open magit-status and one `ff`
as an additional alias to find-file that follows the Doom keybindings
better.

Description

This module provides additional features for the built-in Emacs Shell

The Emacs Shell or eshell is a shell-like command interpreter implemented in Emacs Lisp. It is an alternative to traditional shells such as bash, zsh, fish, etc. that is built into Emacs and entirely cross-platform.

Maintainers

This module has no dedicated maintainers.

Module Flags

This module provides no flags, but does gain auto-completion if :completion company is enabled.

Hacks

  • Even with fish-completion-fallback-on-bash-p non-nil, fish must be installed for bash completion to work. Workaround in config.el.
  • eshell-did-you-mean does not work on first invocation, so we manually invoke it once.

Prerequisites

fish shell for completions, falling back to bash shell if fish is not found. If neither shell is found, completions may not be available.

Features

  • Command completion with Company
  • fish-style prompt with Git integration
  • z-like directory jumping
  • Command-not-found recommendations
