The cygwin-specific file /etc/fish/config.d/cygwin.fish has this section: # Work around an autocompletion bug, where fish tries to execute strings # in parentheses in the PATH. For example it tries to run the x86 function # if it sees a PATH component like '/cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)'. # See https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/952#issuecomment-27499216 . # Work around the most common cases here.
function R --description "print '(R)'" echo '(R)' end function tm --description "print '(tm)'" echo '(tm)' end function TM --description "print '(TM)'" echo '(TM)' end function x86 --description "print '(x86)'" echo '(x86)' end function X86 --description "print '(X86)'" echo '(X86)' end This was to work around fish bug https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/952. However, this bug was fixed in version 2.3.0. I tested this quickly by removing the workaround and fish seemed to complete paths swimmingly (heh). I suggest this section is removed from fish-2.3.1 as these workarounds are no longer needed.
