A pasted character firing a wait-arming binding swallowed the
subsequent bracketed-paste-end, leaving t.pasting set forever and
suppressing queryChanged for all later input. Let paste begin/end
through the block so pasting state is maintained and the search for
the edited query is dispatched.
Background transform results are unrelated to the block; dropping them
would silently lose completed work. Applies both the dedicated
bg-transform-* setters and actions parsed from generic bg-transform
output (inBgCallback). Searches initiated by a bg result are not
waited for.
Blocks execution of subsequent actions until the current search
completes, so motion actions operate on the complete result set.
# Move to the best match only after the search is done
fzf --bind 'start:search(foo)+wait+best'
- Blocks when a search is in progress, will be triggered by preceding
actions, or the query was edited in the same binding; no-op otherwise
- Initial input load counts as a search in progress, so 'start:wait'
blocks until the input is fully loaded and searched
- User input ignored while blocked; keys bound to abort/cancel cancel
the wait and discard pending actions instead
- Debounced feedback after 200ms: dimmed prompt, hidden cursor, and
(..) on the info line
- Fires like result, but only after the input stream closes
- Use for one-shot per-query actions that would otherwise re-fire on
every intermediate snapshot during loading

Async callbacks fire a later iteration than the one that scheduled
them, so newCommand/reloadSync/denylist must persist across iterations.
fzf --bind 'space:bg-transform:echo reload:date'
- every(N) fires every N seconds (fractional, floored to 0.01s)
- Encoded as tui.Every with duration in Char as milliseconds, so
every(1) and every(2) coexist as distinct keymap entries
- FZF_IDLE_TIME exposes whole seconds since the last user activity
(keystroke or mouse event); pair with every() for idle-based
patterns like auto-accept/auto-quit
Close#1211
Separate item identity from cursor tracking:
- Add --id-nth=NTH to define item identity fields for cross-reload ops
- --track reverts to a simple boolean flag
- track-current action no longer accepts nth argument
- With --multi, selections are preserved across reload-sync by matching
identity keys in the reloaded list
Close#4718Close#4701Close#4483Close#4409Close#3460Close#2441
Allow --track to accept an optional nth expression for cross-reload
tracking. When a reload is triggered, fzf extracts a tracking key from
the current item using the nth expression, blocks the UI, and searches
for a matching item in the reloaded list.
- --track=.. tracks by entire line, --track=1 by first field, etc.
- --track without NTH retains existing index-based behavior
- UI is blocked during search (dimmed query, hidden cursor, +T*/+t*)
- reload unblocks eagerly on match; reload-sync waits for stream end
- Escape/Ctrl-C cancels blocked state without quitting
- track-current action accepts optional nth: track-current(1)
- Validate nth expression at parse time for both --track and track()
- Cache trackKeyFor results per item to avoid redundant computation
- Rename executeRegexp to argActionRegexp

All input lines now enter the chunklist with sequential indices, and
header lines are excluded from matching via Pattern.startIndex and
PassMerger offset. This allows the number of header lines to be changed
at runtime with change-header-lines(N), transform-header-lines, and
bg-transform-header-lines actions.
- Remove EvtHeader event; header items are read directly from chunks
- Add startIndex to Pattern and PassMerger for skipping header items
- Add targetIndex field to Terminal for cursor repositioning across
header-lines changes

This commit fixes incorrect coloring for items that contain zero-width
characters. It also makes ellipsis coloring consistent when text is
trimmed from either the left or the right.
Fix#4620Close#4646
Close#4430
Example:
# Implement popup that disappears after 1 second
# * Use footer as the popup
# * Use `bell` to ring the terminal bell
# * Use `bg-transform-footer` to clear the footer after 1 second
# * Use `bg-cancel` to ignore currently running background transform actions
fzf --multi --list-border \
--bind 'enter:execute-silent(echo -n {+} | pbcopy)+bell' \
--bind 'enter:+transform-footer(echo Copied {} to clipboard)' \
--bind 'enter:+bg-cancel+bg-transform-footer(sleep 1)'
fzf would restore the original query in input-less mode after executing
a chain of actions.
This commit changes the behavior so that the restoration
happens after each action to allow something like
'show-input+change-query(...)+hide-input'.
Fix#4326
