fish - the friendly interactive shell
   Synopsis
       fish [-h] [-v] [-c command] [FILE [ARGUMENTS...]]

   Description
       A commandline shell written mainly with interactive use in mind. The full manual is available in html by using the help command from inside
       fish.

       o -c or --command=COMMANDS evaluate the specified commands instead of reading from the commandline

       o -d or --debug-level=DEBUG_LEVEL specify the verbosity level of fish. A higher number means higher verbosity. The default level is 1.

       o -h or --help display help and exit

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

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

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

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

       o -v or --version display version and exit

       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.
