NAME
fishd - universal variable daemon
Synopsis
fishd [(-h|--help|-v|--version)]
Description
The fishd daemon is used to load, save and
distribute universal variable information. fish automatically
connects to fishd via a socket on startup. If no instance of fishd
is running, fish spawns a new fishd instance. fishd will create a
socket in /tmp, and wait for incoming connections from universal
variable clients, such as fish, When no clients are connected,
fishd will automatically shut down.

Files
~/.config/fish/fishd.HOSTNAME permanent storage
location for universal variable data. The data is stored as a set
of set and set_export commands such as would be parsed by fishd.
The file must always be stored in ASCII format. If an instance of
fishd is running (which is generally the case), manual
modifications to ~/.fishd.HOSTNAME will be lost. Do NOT edit this
file manually!
/tmp/fishd.socket.USERNAME the socket which fishd uses to
communicate with all clients.
/tmp/fishd.log.USERNAME the fishd log file
