# Description It's commonly forgotten or overlooked that a lot of `std repeat` functionality can be handled with the built-in `fill`. Added 'repeat` as a search term for `fill` to improve discoverability. Also replaced one of the existing examples with one `fill`ing an empty string, a la `repeat`. There were 6 examples already, and 3 of them pretty much were variations on the same theme, so I repurposed one of those rather than adding a 7th. # User-Facing Changes Changes to `help` only # Tests + Formatting - 🟢 `toolkit fmt` - 🟢 `toolkit clippy` - 🟢 `toolkit test` - 🟢 `toolkit test stdlib` # After Submitting I assume the "Commands" doc is auto-generated from the `help`, but I'll double-check that assumption.
Nushell core libraries and plugins
These sub-crates form both the foundation for Nu and a set of plugins which extend Nu with additional functionality.
Foundational libraries are split into two kinds of crates:
- Core crates - those crates that work together to build the Nushell language engine
- Support crates - a set of crates that support the engine with additional features like JSON support, ANSI support, and more.
Plugins are likewise also split into two types:
- Core plugins - plugins that provide part of the default experience of Nu, including access to the system properties, processes, and web-connectivity features.
- Extra plugins - these plugins run a wide range of different capabilities like working with different file types, charting, viewing binary data, and more.
