Vim uses POSIX-compatible syntax for running commands in the shell
(unless using one of the few non-POSIX shells it recognizes).
Obviously, Fish strays fairly far from POSIX so your best bet it to tell
Vim to use a different shell. It may be possible to tweak the
shell-related options (like 'shellxquote', 'shellquote', etc.) but it's
easier just to change the shell. Here's what I used to have in my vimrc
when I used fish:
if $SHELL =~ 'fish'
set shell='/bin/sh'
endif
