Fish shell man page #5521

Description

Currently, man fish is very sparse, listing only command line options to the fish command itself. One can get information about fish itself through help. Then one could also get information about fish commands, etc... through man. However, I find it jarring having to help first to then man. Moreover, some commands clash with pretty standard ones like (for example) test from coreutils.

bash is great on this matter, where I can just man bash and forget about clunkly web interfaces. I can even use my text editor as a MANPAGER and not break my workflow (especially in Linux where trackpad support is flimsy). How about getting the full fish manual on man fish? Likewise, if this is not feasible, do you recommend a way of generating the man pages myself?

Thanks
