8   Synopsis
9       fishd [(-h|--help|-v|--version)]
10
11   Description
12       The fishd daemon is used to load, save and distribute universal
13       variable information. fish automatically connects to fishd via a socket
14       on startup. If no instance of fishd is running, fish spawns a new fishd
15       instance. fishd will create a socket in /tmp, and wait for incoming
16       connections from universal variable clients, such as fish, When no
17       clients are connected, fishd will automatically shut down.

23   Files
24       ~/.fishd.HOSTNAME permanent storage location for universal variable
25       data. The data is stored as a set of set and set_export commands such
26       as would be parsed by fishd. If an instance of fishd is running (which
27       is generally the case), manual modifications to ~/.fishd.HOSTNAME will
28       be lost. Do NOT edit this file manually!
29
30       /tmp/fishd.socket.USERNAME the socket which fishd uses to communicate
31       with all clients.
32
33       /tmp/fishd.log.USERNAME the fishd log file
