+*arith* *arithmetic* *arithmetic-expansion*
+
+#ARITHMETIC EXPANSION#
+
+Arithmetic expansion evaluates a mathematical expression and substitutes
+the result. The expression is subject to parameter expansion and command
+substitution before evaluation.
+
+  `$((expression))`
+
+      Example:
+        `echo $((2 + 3))`       # prints: 5
+        `x=$((width * height))`
+
+==============================================================================
+1. Operators                                   *arith-operators*
+
+  The following operators are supported, listed from highest to lowest
+  precedence:
+
+  `( )`                                        *arith-parens*
+
+      Grouping. Override default precedence.
+
+      Example:
+        `echo $(( (2+3) * 4 ))`  # prints: 20
+
+  `*` `/` `%`                                  *arith-muldivmod*
+
+      Multiplication, division, and modulo (remainder).
+
+      Example:
+        `echo $((10 / 3))`       # prints: 3
+        `echo $((10 % 3))`       # prints: 1
+
+  `+` `-`                                      *arith-addsub*
+
+      Addition and subtraction.
+
+      Example:
+        `echo $((10 - 3 + 1))`   # prints: 8
+
+==============================================================================
+2. Variables in Expressions                    *arith-variables*
+
+  Variables can be referenced by name inside arithmetic expressions.
+  They are expanded and converted to numbers.
+
+      `x=10`
+      `echo $(($x + 5))`        # prints: 15
+      `echo $((x + 5))`         # also works
+
+  If a variable is unset or not a valid number, an error is reported.
+
+==============================================================================
+3. Nesting                                     *arith-nesting*
+
+  Arithmetic expressions can be nested with parentheses to any depth:
+
+      `echo $(( (1+2) * (3+4) ))`  # prints: 21
+
+  Arithmetic expansion can also appear inside other expansions:
+
+      `echo "Total: $((price * qty))"`
+
+==============================================================================
+4. Whitespace                                  *arith-whitespace*
+
+  Whitespace inside `$((...))` is ignored and can be used freely for
+  readability:
+
+      `echo $((2+3))`           # prints: 5
+      `echo $(( 2 + 3 ))`       # same result

+
+#AUTOCMDS#
+
+Autocmds (automatic commands) execute shell commands in response to
+specific events. They provide a hook system for customizing shell
+behavior without modifying the shell itself.
+
+==============================================================================
+1. Registration                                *autocmd-register*
+
+  `autocmd [OPTIONS] {kind} {command}`
+
+  Register {command} to run whenever the event {kind} fires.
+
+  Options:
+
+    `-p {pattern}`                             *autocmd-pattern*
+
+        Only run this autocmd when {pattern} (a regex) matches the
+        event's context string. The context varies by event type:
+        for |autocmd-pre-cmd| it is the command being executed, for
+        |autocmd-post-change-dir| it is the target directory, etc.
+
+    `-c`                                       *autocmd-clear*
+
+        Clear all autocmds of the specified {kind}. No command is
+        needed.
+
+  Examples:
+
+      `autocmd post-cmd 'echo "exit: $?"'`
+      `autocmd -p '^git' pre-cmd 'echo running git...'`
+      `autocmd -c pre-cmd`
+
+==============================================================================
+2. Event Kinds                                 *autocmd-kinds*
+
+  2.1 Command Execution                        *autocmd-cmd-events*
+
+  `pre-cmd`                                    *autocmd-pre-cmd*
+
+      Fires before a command is executed. The command string is
+      available for pattern matching.
+
+  `post-cmd`                                   *autocmd-post-cmd*
+
+      Fires after a command finishes. The command string is available
+      for pattern matching.
+
+  2.2 Directory Changes                        *autocmd-dir-events*
+
+  `pre-change-dir`                             *autocmd-pre-change-dir*
+
+      Fires before `cd` changes the working directory. The target
+      directory is available for pattern matching.
+
+      Special variables:
+        `$_NEW_DIR`    the directory being changed to
+        `$_OLD_DIR`    the current directory (before the change)
+
+  `post-change-dir`                            *autocmd-post-change-dir*
+
+      Fires after a successful directory change.
+
+      Special variables:
+        `$_NEW_DIR`    the new working directory
+        `$_OLD_DIR`    the previous directory
+
+  2.3 Job Events                               *autocmd-job-events*
+
+  `on-job-finish`                              *autocmd-on-job-finish*
+
+      Fires when a background job completes. The job's command string
+      is available for pattern matching.
+
+  2.4 Prompt Events                            *autocmd-prompt-events*
+
+  `pre-prompt`                                 *autocmd-pre-prompt*
+
+      Fires before the prompt is rendered. Useful for updating prompt
+      state.
+
+  `post-prompt`                                *autocmd-post-prompt*
+
+      Fires after the prompt is rendered.
+
+  2.5 Mode Change Events                       *autocmd-mode-events*
+
+  `pre-mode-change`                            *autocmd-pre-mode-change*
+
+      Fires before the vi editing mode changes. The `$SHED_VI_MODE`
+      variable still holds the old mode.
+
+  `post-mode-change`                           *autocmd-post-mode-change*
+
+      Fires after the vi editing mode changes. `$SHED_VI_MODE` reflects
+      the new mode.
+
+  2.6 History Events                           *autocmd-hist-events*
+
+  `on-history-open`                            *autocmd-on-history-open*

+        `$_NUM_MATCHES`  count of matching entries
+        `$_SEARCH_STR`   the current search string
+
+  `on-history-close`                           *autocmd-on-history-close*
+
+      Fires when the history search is dismissed without selecting.
+
+  `on-history-select`                          *autocmd-on-history-select*
+
+      Fires when a history entry is selected. The entry text is
+      available for pattern matching.
+
+      Special variables:
+        `$_HIST_ENTRY`   the selected history entry
+
+  2.7 Completion Events                        *autocmd-comp-events*
+
+  `on-completion-start`                        *autocmd-on-completion-start*
+
+      Fires when the completion menu becomes visible.
+
+      Special variables:
+        `$_MATCHES`      array of completion candidates
+        `$_NUM_MATCHES`  count of candidates
+        `$_SEARCH_STR`   the token being completed

+
+  `on-completion-select`                       *autocmd-on-completion-select*
+
+      Fires when a completion candidate is accepted. The candidate
+      is available for pattern matching.
+
+      Special variables:
+        `$_COMP_CANDIDATE`  the selected completion candidate
+
+  2.8 Screensaver Events                       *autocmd-screensaver-events*
+
+  `on-screensaver-exec`                        *autocmd-on-screensaver-exec*
+
+      Fires when the screensaver activates after the idle timeout.
+      The screensaver command (see `shopt prompt.screensaver_cmd`) is
+      available for pattern matching.
+
+  `on-screensaver-return`                      *autocmd-on-screensaver-return*
+
+      Fires when the shell returns from the screensaver command.
+      The screensaver command is available for pattern matching.

+  2.9 Exit Event                               *autocmd-exit-event*
+
+  `on-exit`                                    *autocmd-on-exit*
+
+      Fires when the shell is about to exit.
+
+==============================================================================
+3. Behavior                                    *autocmd-behavior*
+
+  - Multiple autocmds can be registered for the same event kind. They
+    execute in registration order.
+
+  - If an autocmd command fails, the error is printed but subsequent
+    autocmds for the same event still run.
+
+  - Autocmds do not affect the shell's exit status (`$?`). The exit
+    status is saved before autocmd execution and restored afterward.
+
+  - Pattern matching uses Rust regex syntax. If an autocmd has no
+    pattern, it always fires for its event kind.
+
+  - Special variables (e.g. `$_NEW_DIR`) are only available within the
+    scope of the autocmd execution. They are not set globally.
+
+==============================================================================
+4. Examples                                    *autocmd-examples*
+
+  Notify on directory change:
+
+      `autocmd post-change-dir 'echo "moved to $_NEW_DIR"'`
+
+  Run a linter only on git commands:
+
+      `autocmd -p '^git commit' post-cmd 'lint-check'`
+
+  Refresh prompt on mode change (for mode indicator):
+
+      `autocmd post-mode-change 'kill -USR1 $$'`
+			(SIGUSR1 can be used to remotely refresh the prompt. See |prompt|)
+
+  Log completed jobs:
+
+      `autocmd on-job-finish 'echo "job done" >> /tmp/jobs.log'`
+
+  Clean up on exit:
+
+      `autocmd on-exit 'rm -f /tmp/my-shell-*.tmp'`

+#EX MODE#
+
+Ex mode provides colon commands for operations that go beyond single-key
+normal mode actions. Enter ex mode by pressing `:` in normal mode.
+
+The command line supports full editing via insert mode, and has its own
+command history navigable with `Up` and `Down`.
+
+==============================================================================
+1. Shell Commands                              *ex-shell*
+
+  `:!{cmd}`                                    *ex-bang*
+
+      Execute {cmd} in the shell. The following special variables are
+      set during execution and can be read or modified:
+
+        `$_BUFFER`    the current editor buffer contents
+        `$_CURSOR`    the cursor position (flat byte index)
+        `$_ANCHOR`    the visual selection anchor position
+
+      If the command modifies these variables, the editor state is
+      updated accordingly. This allows ex commands to programmatically
+      edit the buffer.
+
+      If the command sets `$_KEYS`, the value is fed back into the
+      editor as a key sequence.
+
+      Example:
+        `:!echo "$_BUFFER" | tr a-z A-Z > /tmp/out`
+        `:!_BUFFER=$(echo "$_BUFFER" | sort)`
+
+==============================================================================
+2. File Operations                             *ex-file*
+
+  `:r {file}`                                  *ex-read*
+
+      Read the contents of {file} and insert them into the buffer at
+      the cursor position.
+
+  `:r !{cmd}`                                  *ex-read-cmd*
+
+      Execute {cmd} and insert its output into the buffer.
+
+  `:w {file}`                                  *ex-write*
+
+      Write the buffer contents to {file}. Creates the file if it does
+      not exist, or truncates it if it does.
+
+  `:w >> {file}`                               *ex-write-append*
+
+      Append the buffer contents to {file}.
+
+  `:w !{cmd}`                                  *ex-write-cmd*
+
+      Pipe the buffer contents to {cmd} as stdin.
+
+  `:e {file}`                                  *ex-edit*
+
+      Open {file} in the editor defined by `$EDITOR`. Requires the
+      `EDITOR` environment variable to be set.
+
+      Example:
+        `:e ~/.config/shed/shedrc`
+
+==============================================================================
+3. Buffer Operations                           *ex-buffer*
+
+  `:d`                                         *ex-delete*
+
+      Delete the entire buffer.
+
+  `:y`                                         *ex-yank*
+
+      Yank the entire buffer into the default register.
+
+  `:pu`                                        *ex-put*
+
+      Put (paste) from the default register after the cursor.
+
+==============================================================================
+4. Other Commands                              *ex-other*
+
+  `:q`                                         *ex-quit*
+
+      Quit the editor / exit the shell.
+
+  `:help {topic}`                              *ex-help*
+
+      Display help for {topic}. Runs the `help` builtin.
+
+==============================================================================
+5. Path Expansion                              *ex-paths*
+
+  File paths in ex commands are subject to variable expansion. You can
+  use environment variables in paths:
+
+      `:e $HOME/.config/shed/shedrc`
+      `:w ${TMPDIR}/output.txt`
+
+==============================================================================
+6. Ex Command History                          *ex-history*
+
+  Ex mode maintains its own command history, separate from the main
+  shell history. Navigate with `Up` and `Down` while in ex mode.

+
+  `*`                                          *glob-star*
+
+      Matches any string of zero or more characters, except that it does
+      not match a leading `.` (see |glob-dotglob|) or a `/`.
+
+      Example:
+        `echo *.txt`             # all .txt files
+        `ls src/*.rs`            # all .rs files in src/
+
+  `?`                                          *glob-question*
+
+      Matches exactly one character, with the same restrictions as `*`.
+
+      Example:
+        `ls file?.txt`           # file1.txt, fileA.txt, etc.
+
+  `[...]`                                      *glob-bracket*
+
+      Matches any one of the enclosed characters. A range can be specified
+      with a hyphen.
+
+      `[abc]`      matches `a`, `b`, or `c`
+      `[a-z]`      matches any lowercase letter
+      `[0-9]`      matches any digit
+      `[A-Za-z]`   matches any letter
+
+  `[!...]` `[^...]`                            *glob-bracket-negate*
+
+      Matches any character NOT in the set.
+
+      Example:
+        `ls [!.]*.txt`           # .txt files not starting with dot
+        `echo file[^0-9].txt`    # files without a digit
+
+==============================================================================
+2. Hidden Files                                *glob-dotglob*
+
+  By default, patterns do not match files whose names begin with `.`
+  (hidden files). A leading dot must be matched explicitly:
+
+      `echo .*`                  # only hidden files
+      `echo .* *`               # hidden and non-hidden files
+
+  The `dotglob` shell option changes this behavior:
+
+      `shopt core.dotglob true`
+
+  When enabled, `*` and `?` will also match files starting with `.`.
+
+==============================================================================
+3. Brace Expansion                             *brace* *brace-expansion*
+
+  Brace expansion is performed before globbing and generates multiple
+  words from a single pattern. It is not a POSIX feature.
+
+  `{a,b,c}`                                   *brace-list*
+
+      Comma-separated list. Each item becomes a separate word.
+
+      Example:
+        `echo {a,b,c}`           # prints: a b c
+        `echo file.{txt,log}`    # prints: file.txt file.log
+        `mkdir -p src/{bin,lib}`
+
+  `{N..M}`                                    *brace-range*
+
+      Numeric or character range.
+
+      Example:
+        `echo {1..5}`            # prints: 1 2 3 4 5
+        `echo {a..f}`            # prints: a b c d e f
+        `echo {5..1}`            # prints: 5 4 3 2 1
+
+  `{N..M..S}`                                 *brace-range-step*
+
+      Numeric range with step {S}.
+
+      Example:
+        `echo {0..10..2}`        # prints: 0 2 4 6 8 10
+        `echo {1..20..5}`        # prints: 1 6 11 16
+
+  `{01..10}`                                  *brace-range-pad*
+
+      Zero-padded ranges. If either endpoint has leading zeros, all
+      generated values are padded to the same width.
+
+      Example:
+        `echo {01..05}`          # prints: 01 02 03 04 05
+        `echo {001..3}`          # prints: 001 002 003
+
+  Brace expansion can be nested and combined with other expansions:
+
+      `echo {a,b{1..3},c}`      # prints: a b1 b2 b3 c
+
+==============================================================================
+4. Quoting and Escaping                        *glob-quoting*
+
+  Glob characters lose their special meaning when quoted:
+
+      `echo "*"`                 # prints literal *
+      `echo '*.txt'`            # prints literal *.txt
+      `echo \*`                 # prints literal *
+
+  This is important when passing patterns to commands like `find` or
+  `grep` where you want the command (not the shell) to interpret the
+  pattern.
+
+==============================================================================
+5. Tilde Expansion                             *tilde* *tilde-expansion*
+
+  Tilde expansion is performed before pathname expansion.
+
+  `~`                                          *tilde-home*
+
+      Expands to the value of `$HOME`.
+
+  `~/path`                                     *tilde-home-path*
+
+      Expands `~` to `$HOME`, then appends the path.
+
+      Example:
+        `cd ~/projects`
+        `ls ~/.config`
+
+  `~user`                                      *tilde-user*
+
+      Expands to the home directory of {user}.
+
+      Example:
+        `ls ~root`               # /root
+        `cat ~nobody/.profile`
+
+  `~uid`                                       *tilde-uid*
+
+      Expands to the home directory of the user with numeric uid {uid}.
+      This is a shed-specific extension.
+
+      Example:
+        `echo ~0`                # /root (uid 0)
+        `echo ~1000`             # first normal user's home

+  1.4 Operators                                *operators*
+
+  Operators take a {motion} or |text-object| to define the range they
+  act on. Double an operator to act on the whole line (e.g. `dd`, `>>`,

+  `c{motion}`                                  *key-c*
+
+      Delete the text covered by {motion} and enter insert mode.

+      Yank (copy) the text covered by {motion} into a register.
+
+      `yy`      yank the whole line
+      `Y`       yank the whole line
+
+  `>{motion}`                                  *key-indent*
+
+      Indent the lines covered by {motion}.
+
+      `>>`      indent the current line

+
+      Dedent the lines covered by {motion}.
+
+      `<<`      dedent the current line
+
+  `={motion}`                                  *key-equalize*
+
+      Auto-indent the lines covered by {motion}. Uses the minimum
+      nesting depth of each line's start and end to determine the
+      correct indentation level.
+
+      `==`      equalize the current line
+
+  `g~{motion}`                                 *key-toggle-case*
+
+      Toggle the case of the text covered by {motion}.

+
+      Convert the text covered by {motion} to lowercase.
+
+  `gU{motion}`                                 *key-gU*

+
+      Replace the character under the cursor with {char}. With a count,
+      replaces that many characters.

+      Preserves leading zeros and prefix.
+
+  `Ctrl+X`                                     *key-ctrl-x*
+
+      Decrement the number under the cursor.
+
+  1.6 Entering Other Modes                     *mode-entry*
+
+  `i`       insert before cursor               *key-i*
+  `a`       insert after cursor                 *key-a*

+  `R`       enter replace mode                  *key-R*
+  `v`       enter visual mode (character-wise)  *key-v*
+  `V`       enter visual mode (line-wise)       *key-V-visual*
+  `gv`      reselect last visual region         *key-gv*
+  `:`       enter ex mode                       *key-colon*
+
+  1.7 Registers                                *registers*
+
+  `"{reg}`                                     *key-register*
+
+      Use register {reg} for the next delete, yank, or put. Registers
+      `a`-`z` store text; uppercase `A`-`Z` appends to the corresponding
+      lowercase register.
+
+==============================================================================
+2. Insert Mode                                 *insert-mode*
+
+  Insert mode is for typing text. Characters are inserted at the cursor.
+
+  `Esc`           return to normal mode
+  `Backspace`     delete character before cursor
+  `Ctrl+H`        same as Backspace
+  `Ctrl+W`        delete word before cursor
+  `Delete`        delete character under cursor
+  `Tab`           trigger completion (see |completion|)
+  `Shift+Tab`     trigger completion (reverse direction)
+  `Ctrl+R`        open history search (see |history-search|)
+  `Ctrl+V`        enter verbatim mode (insert literal key sequence)
+  `Enter`         submit line or insert newline if input is incomplete
+
+  Arrow keys, Home, and End work as expected for navigation.
+
+==============================================================================
+3. Visual Mode                                 *visual-mode*
+
+  Visual mode selects a region of text. Enter with `v` (character-wise)
+  or `V` (line-wise) from normal mode.
+
+  All normal-mode motions work to extend the selection. Operators act
+  on the selected region without needing a motion:
+
+  `d` `x`     delete selection
+  `c` `s` `S` change selection (delete and enter insert mode)
+  `y`         yank selection
+  `p` `P`     paste, replacing selection
+  `>` `<`     indent / dedent selection
+  `=`         equalize selection
+  `~`         toggle case of selection
+  `u`         lowercase selection
+  `U`         uppercase selection
+  `r{char}`   replace every character in selection with {char}
+  `J`         join selected lines
+  `o` `O`     swap cursor and selection anchor
+
+  Press `Esc` to return to normal mode without acting.
+
+==============================================================================
+4. Replace Mode                                *replace-mode*
+
+  Replace mode overwrites existing characters as you type. Enter with
+  `R` from normal mode.
+
+  `Esc`           return to normal mode
+  `Backspace`     undo the last replacement
+
+  All other keys replace the character under the cursor and advance.
+
+==============================================================================
+5. Ex Mode                                     *ex-mode-keys*
+
+  Ex mode accepts colon commands. Enter with `:` from normal mode.
+  See |ex| for available commands.
+
+  `Enter`         execute the command
+  `Esc`           cancel and return to normal mode
+  `Ctrl+C`        clear the command line
+  `Up` `Down`     navigate ex command history
+
+==============================================================================
+6. Text Objects                                *text-objects*
+
+  Text objects define a range of text based on structure. They are used
+  with operators: `d`, `c`, `y`, etc. Each has an "inner" (`i`) and
+  "around" (`a`) variant.
+
+  `iw` `aw`                                    *obj-word*
+
+      Word (punctuation-delimited). `aw` includes trailing whitespace.
+
+  `iW` `aW`                                    *obj-WORD*
+
+      WORD (whitespace-delimited). `aW` includes trailing whitespace.
+
+  `i"` `a"`                                    *obj-dquote*
+
+      Double-quoted string.
+
+  `i'` `a'`                                    *obj-squote*
+
+      Single-quoted string.
+
+  `` i` `` `` a` ``                            *obj-backtick*
+
+      Backtick-quoted string.
+
+  `i)` `a)` `ib` `ab`                         *obj-paren*
+
+      Parenthesized block.
+
+  `i]` `a]`                                    *obj-bracket*
+
+      Square-bracketed block.
+
+  `i}` `a}` `iB` `aB`                         *obj-brace*
+
+      Brace-delimited block.
+
+  `i<` `a<`                                    *obj-angle*
+
+      Angle-bracketed block.
+
+  `it` `at`                                    *obj-tag*
+
+      XML/HTML tag block.
+
+  `is` `as`                                    *obj-sentence*
+
+      Sentence.
+
+  `ip` `ap`                                    *obj-paragraph*
+
+      Paragraph (separated by blank lines).
+
+==============================================================================
+7. Counts                                      *counts*
+
+  Most motions, operators, and actions accept a numeric count prefix:
+
+      `3j`        move down 3 lines
+      `2dw`       delete 2 words
+      `5>>`       indent 5 lines
+      `10l`       move 10 characters right
+
+  When both the operator and the motion have counts, they are
+  multiplied: `2d3w` deletes 6 words.
+
+==============================================================================
+8. Viewport                                    *viewport*
+
+  When the buffer is taller than the terminal, the editor displays a
+  scrolling viewport. The viewport follows the cursor and respects the
+  `line.scroll_offset` shopt (minimum lines visible above/below the cursor).
+
+  `Ctrl+D`    scroll down half a screen
+  `Ctrl+U`    scroll up half a screen
+  `Ctrl+G`    display current position in the buffer
+
+  Line numbers in the left margin reflect actual buffer positions, not
+  viewport-relative indices.
+
+==============================================================================
+9. User-Defined Keymaps                        *keymaps* *keymap*
+
+  Custom key bindings are created with the `keymap` command:
+
+    `keymap [flags] {keys} {action}`
+
+  Flags select the mode(s) the binding applies to:
+
+    `-n`      normal mode
+    `-i`      insert mode
+    `-v`      visual mode
+    `-x`      ex mode
+    `-o`      operator-pending mode
+    `-r`      replace mode
+
+  Keys and actions use angle-bracket notation for special keys:
+
+    `<CR>`    Enter             `<Esc>`     Escape
+    `<Tab>`   Tab               `<BS>`      Backspace
+    `<Del>`   Delete            `<Space>`   Space
+    `<Up>` `<Down>` `<Left>` `<Right>`      Arrow keys
+    `<Home>` `<End>`            Home / End
+    `<F1>` - `<F12>`            Function keys
+    `<CMD>`   Enter ex mode
+    `<Leader>`                  Leader key (set via `shopt prompt.leader`)
+
+  Modifier prefixes:
+
+    `C-`      Control           `A-` `M-`   Alt / Meta
+    `S-`      Shift
+
+  Examples:
+
+    `keymap -n <Leader>w ':w<CR>'`     Leader+w writes to file
+    `keymap -i jk '<Esc>'`             jk exits insert mode
+    `keymap -n <C-n> ':!mycmd<CR>'`    Ctrl+n runs a shell command
+
+  To remove a binding:
+
+    `keymap --remove {keys}`
+
+==============================================================================
+10. Completion                                 *completion*
+
+  `Tab`       start or cycle through completion candidates (forward)
+  `Shift+Tab` cycle backward
+
+  When the completion menu is visible, `Tab` and arrow keys navigate
+  candidates. `Enter` accepts the selected candidate. `Esc` dismisses
+  the menu.
+
+==============================================================================
+11. History Search                             *history-search*
+
+  `Ctrl+R`    open fuzzy history search (from insert or ex mode)
+
+  Type to filter history entries. `Enter` accepts the selected entry.
+  `Esc` dismisses the search.

+
+#PARAMETER EXPANSION#
+
+The shell provides several forms of parameter expansion for working with
+variables. In each form, {word} is subject to tilde expansion, parameter
+expansion, command substitution, and arithmetic expansion.
+
+If {parameter} is unset or null, the behavior depends on the operator used.
+"Unset" means the variable has never been assigned. "Null" means the variable
+is set but its value is the empty string.
+
+==============================================================================
+1. Basic Forms                                  *param-basic*
+
+  `$var`           Value of {var}
+  `${var}`         Same, with explicit braces (needed for `${var}foo`)
+
+Braces are required when {var} is followed by characters that could be part
+of the name, or when using any of the operators below.
+
+==============================================================================
+2. Default Values                               *param-default*
+
+  `${var:-word}`                                *param-default-val*
+
+      Use default value. If {var} is unset or null, expand to {word}.
+      Otherwise, expand to the value of {var}.
+
+      Example:
+        `name=${1:-world}`
+        `echo "hello $name"`    # prints "hello world" if \$1 is unset
+
+  `${var-word}`                                 *param-default-nonnull*
+
+      Like `:-` but only substitutes {word} if {var} is completely unset,
+      not if it is null.
+
+==============================================================================
+3. Assign Defaults                              *param-assign*
+
+  `${var:=word}`                                *param-assign-val*
+
+      Assign default value. If {var} is unset or null, assign {word} to
+      {var} and then expand to the new value.
+
+      Note: This cannot be used with positional parameters or special
+      parameters.
+
+      Example:
+        `echo ${cache:=/tmp/cache}`    # sets and uses \$cache
+
+  `${var=word}`                                 *param-assign-nonnull*
+
+      Like `:=` but only assigns if {var} is completely unset.
+
+==============================================================================
+4. Error on Unset                               *param-error*
+
+  `${var:?word}`                                *param-error-val*
+
+      Display error. If {var} is unset or null, print {word} to stderr
+      and exit (in a non-interactive shell). If {word} is omitted, a
+      default message is printed.
+
+      Example:
+        `input=${1:?usage: myscript \<filename\>}`
+
+  `${var?word}`                                 *param-error-nonnull*
+
+      Like `:?` but only errors if {var} is completely unset.
+
+==============================================================================
+5. Alternate Value                              *param-alt*
+
+  `${var:+word}`                                *param-alt-val*
+
+      Use alternate value. If {var} is unset or null, expand to nothing.
+      Otherwise, expand to {word}.
+
+      Example:
+        `echo ${verbose:+--verbose}`   # flag only if \$verbose is set
+
+  `${var+word}`                                 *param-alt-nonnull*
+
+      Like `:+` but substitutes {word} only if {var} is set (even if null).
+
+==============================================================================
+6. String Length                                *param-length*
+
+  `${#var}`                                     *param-strlen*
+
+      Expands to the length of the value of {var} in characters.
+
+      Example:
+        `str="hello"`
+        `echo ${#str}`         # prints 5
+
+==============================================================================
+7. Substring Removal                            *param-substring*
+
+  `${var#pattern}`                              *param-trim-short-left*
+
+      Remove shortest matching prefix. Removes the shortest match of
+      {pattern} from the beginning of the value of {var}.
+
+  `${var##pattern}`                             *param-trim-long-left*
+
+      Remove longest matching prefix.
+
+      Example:
+        `path="/home/user/file.txt"`
+        `echo ${path##*/}`     # prints "file.txt"
+
+  `${var%pattern}`                              *param-trim-short-right*
+
+      Remove shortest matching suffix. Removes the shortest match of
+      {pattern} from the end of the value of {var}.
+
+  `${var%%pattern}`                             *param-trim-long-right*
+
+      Remove longest matching suffix.
+
+      Example:
+        `file="archive.tar.gz"`
+        `echo ${file%%.*}`     # prints "archive"
+        `echo ${file%.*}`      # prints "archive.tar"
+
+==============================================================================
+8. Search and Replace                           *param-replace*
+
+  `${var/pattern/replacement}`                  *param-replace-first*
+
+      Replace first match. Replaces the first occurrence of {pattern}
+      in the value of {var} with {replacement}.
+
+  `${var//pattern/replacement}`                 *param-replace-all*
+
+      Replace all matches.
+
+      Example:
+        `str="hello world"`
+        `echo ${str/o/0}`      # prints "hell0 world"
+        `echo ${str//o/0}`     # prints "hell0 w0rld"
+
+  `${var/#pattern/replacement}`                 *param-replace-prefix*
+
+      Replace if matching at the beginning.
+
+  `${var/%pattern/replacement}`                 *param-replace-suffix*
+
+      Replace if matching at the end.
+
+==============================================================================
+9. Case Modification                            *param-case*
+
+  `${var^}`                                     *param-upper-first*
+
+      Uppercase the first character of {var}.
+
+  `${var^^}`                                    *param-upper-all*
+
+      Uppercase all characters.
+
+  `${var,}`                                     *param-lower-first*
+
+      Lowercase the first character of {var}.
+
+  `${var,,}`                                    *param-lower-all*
+
+      Lowercase all characters.
+
+      Example:
+        `name="john doe"`
+        `echo ${name^}`        # prints "John doe"
+        `echo ${name^^}`       # prints "JOHN DOE"
+
+==============================================================================
+10. Substrings                                  *param-slice*
+
+  `${var:offset}`                               *param-slice-from*

+  `${var:offset:length}`                        *param-slice-range*
+
+      Substring of {length} characters starting at {offset}.
+
+      Negative offsets count from the end (note the space before the minus
+      to distinguish from `:-`):

+
+#PROMPT#
+
+The shell displays a configurable prompt before each command. Two prompt
+strings are available: PS1 (the main prompt) and PSR (an optional
+right-aligned prompt).
+
+==============================================================================
+1. Setting the Prompt                          *prompt-set*
+
+  The prompt is controlled by the `PS1` and `PSR` environment variables.
+  Set them in your shell configuration:
+
+      `PS1='\u@\h:\W\$ '`
+      `PSR='$SHED_VI_MODE'`
+
+  Prompts are re-expanded before each display, so command substitutions
+  and functions are evaluated every time.
+
+==============================================================================
+2. Escape Sequences                            *prompt-escapes*
+
+  The following backslash escapes are recognized in PS1 and PSR:
+
+  `\u`                                         *prompt-user*
+
+      The current username (from $USER).
+
+  `\h`                                         *prompt-host*
+
+      The hostname (from $HOST).
+
+  `\w`                                         *prompt-pwd*
+
+      The current working directory, with $HOME replaced by `~`.
+
+      Example:
+        `/home/user/projects`  ->  `~/projects`
+
+  `\W`                                         *prompt-pwd-short*
+
+      Truncated working directory. Shows only the last N path segments,
+      where N is controlled by `shopt prompt.trunc_prompt_path`
+      (default: 4).
+
+      Example (with trunc_prompt_path=2):
+        `/home/user/projects/myapp`  ->  `projects/myapp`
+
+  `\s`                                         *prompt-shell*
+
+      The shell name: `shed`.
+
+  `\$`                                         *prompt-symbol*
+
+      `#` if the effective UID is 0 (root), `$` otherwise.
+
+  `\j`                                         *prompt-jobs*
+
+      The number of background jobs currently managed by the shell.
+
+  `\t`                                         *prompt-runtime-ms*
+
+      The runtime of the last command in milliseconds.
+
+  `\T`                                         *prompt-runtime-fmt*
+
+      The runtime of the last command in human-readable format
+      (e.g. `1m 23s 456ms`).
+
+  `\n`                                         *prompt-newline*
+
+      A literal newline. Use this to create multi-line prompts.
+
+  `\r`                                         *prompt-return*
+
+      A literal carriage return.
+
+  `\\`                                         *prompt-backslash*
+
+      A literal backslash.
+
+  `\e[...`                                     *prompt-ansi*
+
+      An ANSI escape sequence. The sequence starts with `\e[` and ends
+      at the first letter character. Used for colors and formatting.
+
+      Common codes:
+        `\e[0m`       reset all attributes
+        `\e[1m`       bold
+        `\e[3m`       italic
+        `\e[4m`       underline
+        `\e[31m`      red foreground
+        `\e[32m`      green foreground
+        `\e[33m`      yellow foreground
+        `\e[34m`      blue foreground
+        `\e[35m`      magenta foreground
+        `\e[36m`      cyan foreground
+        `\e[1;32m`    bold green
+
+      Example:
+        `PS1='\e[1;32m\u\e[0m@\e[34m\h\e[0m:\w\$ '`
+
+==============================================================================
+3. Functions in Prompts                        *prompt-functions*
+
+  `\@{funcname}`                               *prompt-func*
+  `\@funcname`
+
+      Call a shell function and insert its output. The function must
+      be defined before the prompt is expanded. If the function does
+      not exist, the literal sequence is displayed.
+
+      Example:
+        `git_branch() { git branch --show-current 2>/dev/null; }`
+        `PS1='\u@\h (\@git_branch)\$ '`
+
+      This allows dynamic prompt content that updates on every command.
+
+==============================================================================
+4. Right Prompt (PSR)                          *prompt-right* *psr*
+
+  The PSR variable defines an optional right-aligned prompt displayed
+  on the last line of PS1. It supports the same escape sequences as PS1.
+
+  PSR is only displayed when it fits: if the combined width of the
+  input line and PSR exceeds the terminal width, PSR is hidden.
+
+  PSR is restricted to a single line. If it contains newlines, only the
+  first line is used.
+
+      `PSR='$SHED_VI_MODE'`
+      `PSR='\T'`              # show last command runtime on the right
+
+==============================================================================
+5. Multi-Line Prompts                          *prompt-multiline*
+
+  PS1 may span multiple lines using `\n`. The editor tracks line
+  positions for proper cursor movement and redrawing.
+
+      `PS1='\e[1m\u@\h\e[0m\n\W\$ '`
+
+  This displays the username and hostname on the first line, and the
+  working directory and prompt symbol on the second.
+
+==============================================================================
+6. echo -p                                     *echo-prompt*
+
+  The `echo` builtin accepts a `-p` flag that enables prompt-style
+  expansion on its arguments. All prompt escape sequences listed above
+  are recognized.
+
+      `echo -p '\u'`          # prints the current username
+      `echo -p '\W'`          # prints the truncated working directory
+      `echo -p '\e[31mred\e[0m'`  # prints "red" in red
+
+  The `-p` flag can be combined with `-n` (no trailing newline) and
+  `-e` (interpret escape sequences like `\n` and `\t`). When both `-e`
+  and `-p` are used, prompt expansion runs first, then escape sequence
+  interpretation.
+
+==============================================================================
+7. Prompt Options (shopt)                      *prompt-options*
+
+  The following options under `shopt prompt.*` affect prompt behavior:
+
+  `prompt.trunc_prompt_path`                   *opt-trunc-path*
+
+      Maximum number of path segments shown by `\W`. Default: 4.
+
+  `prompt.highlight`                           *opt-highlight*
+
+      Enable syntax highlighting in the input line. Default: true.
+
+  `prompt.auto_indent`                         *opt-auto-indent*
+
+      Automatically indent new lines to match the current nesting
+      depth. Default: true.
+
+  `prompt.linebreak_on_incomplete`             *opt-linebreak*
+
+      Insert a newline when Enter is pressed on an incomplete command
+      (e.g. unclosed quotes or pipes). Default: true.
+
+  `prompt.line_numbers`                        *opt-line-numbers*
+
+      Display line numbers in the left margin for multi-line buffers.
+      Default: true.
+
+  `prompt.leader`                              *opt-leader*
+
+      The leader key sequence for |keymaps|. Default: `" "` (space).
+
+  `prompt.comp_limit`                          *opt-comp-limit*
+
+      Maximum number of completion candidates to display. Default: 100.
+
+  `prompt.completion_ignore_case`              *opt-comp-case*
+
+      Case-insensitive tab completion. Default: false.
+
+==============================================================================
+8. Special Variables                           *prompt-variables*
+
+  `SHED_VI_MODE`                               *var-vi-mode*
+
+      Set automatically before each prompt to the current vi mode name:
+      `NORMAL`, `INSERT`, `VISUAL`, `COMMAND`, `REPLACE`, `SEARCH`, or
+      `COMPLETE`. Useful in PSR or prompt functions.
+
+      Example:
+        `PSR='$SHED_VI_MODE'`
+
+==============================================================================
+9. Remote Refresh (SIGUSR1)                    *prompt-sigusr1*
+
+  Sending `SIGUSR1` to the shell process causes it to re-expand and
+  redraw the prompt. This is useful for updating the prompt from
+  external processes (e.g. a background script that detects a state
+  change).
+
+      `kill -USR1 $$`
+
+  Combined with prompt functions (see |prompt-func|), this allows the
+  prompt to reflect changes that happen outside the shell's normal
+  command cycle.

+*redirect* *redirection* *redir*
+
+#REDIRECTION#
+
+Redirections allow you to control where a command reads its input from and
+where it sends its output. A redirection applies to a specific file
+descriptor; if no descriptor number is given, output redirections default
+to stdout (fd 1) and input redirections default to stdin (fd 0).
+
+==============================================================================
+1. Output Redirection                          *redir-output*
+
+  `command > file`                             *redir-out*
+
+      Redirect stdout to {file}, creating it if it does not exist or
+      truncating it if it does.
+
+      Example:
+        `echo hello > out.txt`
+        `ls 2> errors.txt`       # redirect stderr
+
+  `command >| file`                            *redir-out-force*
+
+      Like `>` but overrides the {noclobber} option. If {noclobber} is set,
+      `>` will refuse to overwrite an existing file; `>|` forces the
+      overwrite.
+
+  `command >> file`                            *redir-append*
+
+      Append stdout to {file}, creating it if it does not exist.
+
+      Example:
+        `echo line >> log.txt`
+
+==============================================================================
+2. Input Redirection                           *redir-input*
+
+  `command < file`                             *redir-in*
+
+      Redirect {file} to stdin.
+
+      Example:
+        `sort < unsorted.txt`
+
+==============================================================================
+3. Read-Write Redirection                      *redir-readwrite*
+
+  `command <> file`                            *redir-rw*
+
+      Open {file} for both reading and writing on the specified file
+      descriptor (default fd 0). The file is created if it does not exist
+      but is not truncated.
+
+      Useful with the `seek` builtin for random-access file operations.
+
+      Example:
+        `exec 3<> data.bin`
+        `seek 3 0 set`           # seek to beginning
+
+==============================================================================
+4. File Descriptor Duplication                 *redir-dup*
+
+  `command N>&M`                               *redir-dup-out*
+
+      Duplicate output file descriptor {M} onto {N}. After this, writing
+      to fd {N} goes to the same place as fd {M}.
+
+      Example:
+        `command > out.txt 2>&1`  # stderr goes where stdout goes
+
+  `command N<&M`                               *redir-dup-in*
+
+      Duplicate input file descriptor {M} onto {N}.
+
+  `command N>&-`                               *redir-close-out*
+  `command N<&-`                               *redir-close-in*
+
+      Close file descriptor {N}.
+
+      Example:
+        `exec 3>&-`              # close fd 3
+
+==============================================================================
+5. Pipelines                                   *redir-pipe*
+
+  `command1 | command2`                        *pipe*
+
+      Connect stdout of {command1} to stdin of {command2}. Both commands
+      run concurrently.
+
+      Example:
+        `cat file.txt | grep pattern | sort`
+
+  `command1 |& command2`                       *pipe-and*
+
+      Connect both stdout and stderr of {command1} to stdin of {command2}.
+      Equivalent to `command1 2>&1 | command2`.
+
+==============================================================================
+6. Here Documents                              *heredoc*
+
+  `command << DELIM`                           *redir-heredoc*
+
+      Read input from the script body until a line containing only {DELIM}
+      is found. The text between is fed to stdin of {command}.
+
+      Parameter expansion, command substitution, and arithmetic expansion
+      are performed in the body unless the delimiter is quoted.
+
+      Example:
+        `cat << EOF`
+        `Hello $USER`
+        `EOF`
+
+  `command << 'DELIM'`                         *redir-heredoc-literal*
+
+      Quoting the delimiter (single or double quotes) suppresses all
+      expansion in the heredoc body. The text is passed literally.
+
+      Example:
+        `cat << 'EOF'`
+        `This $variable is not expanded`
+        `EOF`
+
+  `command <<- DELIM`                          *redir-heredoc-indent*
+
+      Like `<<` but strips leading tab characters from each line of the
+      body and from the closing delimiter. This allows heredocs to be
+      indented for readability without affecting the content.
+
+      Example:
+        `if true; then`
+        `	cat <<- EOF`
+        `	indented content`
+        `	EOF`
+        `fi`
+
+==============================================================================
+7. Here Strings                                *herestring*
+
+  `command <<< word`                           *redir-herestring*
+
+      Feed {word} as a single string to stdin of {command}, with a
+      trailing newline appended. {word} is subject to the usual expansions.
+
+      Example:
+        `read first rest <<< "hello world"`
+        `bc <<< "2 + 2"`
+
+==============================================================================
+8. File Descriptor Numbers                     *redir-fd*
+
+  Any redirection operator can be prefixed with a file descriptor number:
+
+      `2> file`       redirect stderr to file
+      `3< file`       open file on fd 3
+      `4>> file`      append to file on fd 4
+      `5<> file`      open file read-write on fd 5
+
+  Standard file descriptors:
+
+      0   stdin
+      1   stdout
+      2   stderr
+
+  File descriptors 3 and above are available for general use with `exec`.
+
+==============================================================================
+9. Combining Redirections                      *redir-combine*
+
+  Multiple redirections can appear on a single command, processed left
+  to right:
+
+      `command > out.txt 2>&1`   # stdout to file, stderr to same file
+      `command 2>&1 > out.txt`   # different! stderr to terminal,
+                                 # stdout to file
+
+  Order matters: each redirection is applied in sequence.
