NAME
     fish - the friendly interactive shell

SYNOPSIS
	fish [OPTIONS] [-c command] [FILE [ARGUMENTS...]]

DESCRIPTION
     fish  is  a command-line shell written mainly with interactive use in mind.
     This page briefly describes the options for invoking fish. The full  manual
     is available in HTML by using the help command from inside fish, and in the
     fish-doc(1)  man  page. The tutorial is available as HTML via help tutorial
     or in fish-tutorial(1).

     The following options are available:

     * -c or --command=COMMANDS evaluate the specified commands instead of read-
       ing from the commandline

     * -C or --init-command=COMMANDS evaluate the specified commands after read-
       ing the configuration, before running the  command  specified  by  -c  or
       reading interactive input

     * -d or --debug=CATEGORY_GLOB enables debug output and specifies a glob for
       matching debug categories (like fish -d). Defaults to empty.

     * -o  or  --debug-output=path Specify a file path to receive the debug out-
       put, including categories and fish_trace. The default is stderr.

     * -i or --interactive specify that fish is to run in interactive mode

     * -l or --login specify that fish is to run as a login shell

     * -n or --no-execute do not  execute  any	commands,  only  perform  syntax
       checking

     * -p  or  --profile=PROFILE_FILE when fish exits, output timing information
       on all executed commands to the specified file

     * -P or --private enables private mode, so fish  will  not  access  old  or
       store new history.

     * --print-rusage-self when fish exits, output stats from getrusage

     * --print-debug-categories  outputs  the list of debug categories, and then
       exits.

     * -v or --version display version and exit

     * -D or --debug-stack-frames=DEBUG_LEVEL specify how many stack  frames  to
       display	when debug messages are written. The default is zero. A value of
       3 or 4 is usually sufficient to gain insight into how a given debug  call
       was reached but you can specify a value up to 128.

     * -f or --features=FEATURES enables one or more feature flags (separated by
       a comma). These are how fish stages changes that might break scripts.

     The  fish	exit  status is generally the exit status of the last foreground
     command. If fish is exiting because of a parse error, the	exit  status  is
     127.
