Ahoy! Fisherman gets a super patch v0.3.1
This patch contains several amends for 0.3.0 and
other minor documentation corrections.  Major
documentation revision and rewrite.

fisher help shows fisher(1) by default now.

Fix a critical bug that was causing fisher uninstall
--force to remove not the symbolic link, but the
actual files. Closes #24

Rename orphan tag to custom for plugins installed
using a custom URL.

warning Remove fisher --link flag and create symbolic
links by default for local paths. The user does not
have to worry about symbolic links or whether the
copy is as symbolic link or not anymore. If the user
tries to install a local path, then the best thing
to do is to create a symbolic link. This also
eliminates the need to call update.

warning Remove fisher --cache and fisher --validate.
Now, that these options are separated into their own
function and they are intentionally private, there
is no need for them.

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
Search the Fisherman index database\. You can use a custom index file by setting \fB$fisher_index\fR to your preferred URL or file\. See \fBfisher help config\fR and \fIIndex\fR in \fBfisher(7)\fR\.
.
.P
A copy of the index is downloaded every time a search query happens, keeping the index up to date all the time\.
.
.P
The index file consists of records separated by blank lines \fB\'\en\en\'\fR and each record consists of fields separated by a single line \fB\'\en\'\fR\.
.
.P
For example:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
name
url
info
tag1 tag2 tag3 \.\.\.
author
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
See \fIOutput\fR for more information\.
.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.
.TP
\fB\-s \-\-select[=all|cache|remote]\fR
Select the record source\. \-\-select=\fIcache\fR queries only local plugins, i\.e\., those inside \fB$fisher_cache\fR\. \-\-select=\fIremote\fR queries all plugins not in the cache, i\.e, those available to install\. \-\-select=\fIall\fR queries everything\.
.
.TP
\fB\-f \-\-field=name|url|info|tag|author\fR
Display only the given fields from the selected records\. Use \-\-\fIfield\fR as a shortcut for \-\-field=\fIfield\fR\. For example \fBfisher search \-\-url\fR will display only the URLs for
.
.TP
\fB\-\-field[=match]\fR
Filter the result set by \fIfield\fR=\fImatch\fR, where \fIfield\fR can be one or more of \fBname\fR, \fBurl\fR, \fBinfo\fR, \fBtag\fR or \fBauthor\fR\. If \fImatch\fR is not given, this is equivalent to \-\-select=\fIfield\fR\. Use \fB!=\fR to negate the query\.
.
.TP
\fB\-\-field[~/regex/]\fR
Essentially the same as \-\-\fIfield\fR=\fImatch\fR, but with Regular Expression support\. \-\-\fIfield\fR~/\fIregex\fR/ filters the result set using the given /\fIregex\fR/\. For example, \-\-name=/^\fImatch\fR$/ is the same as \-\-\fIfield\fR=\fImatch\fR and \-\-url~/oh\-my\-fish/ selects only oh\-my\-fish plugins\. Use \fB!~\fR to negate the query\.
.
.TP
\fB\-a \-\-and\fR
Join query with the logical AND operator\.
.
.TP
\fB\-o \-\-or\fR
Join query with the logical OR operator\. This the default operator for each query\.
.
.TP
\fB\-Q \-\-query=field[&&,||]field\.\.\.\fR
Use a custom search expression\. For example, \fB\-\-query=name~/[0\-9]/||name~/^[xyz]/\fR selects all plugins that contain numbers in their name \fIor\fR begin with the characters \fIx\fR, \fIy\fR or \fIz\fR\.
.
.TP
\fB\-q \-\-quiet\fR
Enable quiet mode\.
.
.TP
\fB\-h \-\-search\fR
Show help\.
.
.SH "OUTPUT"
The default behavior is to print the result set to standard output in their original format\.

Search is optimized for parsing when using the filters: \fB\-\-name\fR, \fB\-\-url\fR, \fB\-\-info\fR, \fB\-\-tags\fR, \fB\-\-author\fR or \fB\-\-field=name|url|info|tag|author\fR\.
