Fisherman v0.2.0 * Improved README, added links to screencasts, updated documentation with new changes and fixed other typos and composition errors. * Removed `fisher update --cache` in favor of `fisher --cache | fisher update` and `fisher uninstall --all` in favor of `fisher --cache | fisher uninstall`. * Fisherman does not move initialization / configuration files following the convention `name`.config.fish to `$fisher_config/functions`, but to `$fisher_config/conf.d` now and evaluates each `*.config.fish` inside at shell start as usual. Closes #13. * Added `fisher --cache[=base]` option to retrieve contents in `$fisher_cache`, eliminating flaky usage of `find(1)`. Closes #11. * Fisherman now generates information about plugins installed via custom URLs. For the description, a shortened version of the URL is used. For the URL the full URL is used. For tags, the URL is fuzzily checked and tags such as _theme_, _plugin_, _config_ and _omf_ are added. The tag _orphan_ is added by default as well. Finally, the author is generated by retrieving the e-mail or username of the author of the first commit in the plugin's repository. Closes #9 and #14. * Changed `--path-in-cache` to `--translate.` This function translates an name or supported URL/URL variation into a path inside `$fisher_cache`. This allows you to treat plugins installed via custom URLs almost like regular plugins if they are installed. Closes #8. * Fixed a bug with `mktemp` failing on some systems. Closes #7. Thanks @tobywf. * Added [CODE_OF_CONDUCT][code_of_conduct]. Closes #6. * Fisherman can now unload themes within the same shell, without having to restart the session. Closes #5. * Fisherman can now load themes within the same shell, without having to restart the session using `exec fish`. Shoddy themes, for example those failing to declare global variables with the `-g` flag still require the session to be reset. See [**related**][bobthefish-19]. Closes #4. * Move `getopts` implementation to `share/getopts.awk`. Closes #3. * Support dots inside URIs in `fisher --validate`. Closes #2.

Read *fishfile* and write contents to standard output. If *fishfile* is null or an empty string, your user *fishfile* in `$fisher_config`/fishfile will be used instead. Use a dash `-` to force reading from the standard input. Oh My Fish! bundle files are supported as well.
* `-V`, `--validate`=*keyword*:
Validate a *name* or *url*. If *keyword* resembles a url, the algorithm will attempt to normalize the url by adding / removing missing components. Otherwise, it will assume *keyword* is a potential plugin name and use the following regex `^[a-z]+[._-]?[a-z0-9]+` to validate the string. This method is used internally to validate user input and support url variations such as *owner/repo*, *gh:owner/repo*, *bb:owner/repo*, etc. See `fisher`(7)#{`Plugins`}.
If *keyword* is null or an empty string, `--validate` reads keyword*s* from the standard input.

A Fisherman command is a function that you can invoke using the `fisher` utility. By convention, any function of the form `fisher_<my_command>` is registered as Fisherman command. You can create plugins that add new commands as well as regular utilities. See `fisher help commands` and `fisher help plugins` for more information.
