Preview does not work properly on sk 0.9.4 with fish 3.2.1

[TakaakiFuruse]

As shown on the gif, the Preview function does not work properly on fish 3.2.1. I realized after I upgraded to 3.2.1 from 3.2.0.

Once I removed preview, sk --ansi -i -c 'ag --color "{}"' it started working properly. I am totally unsure what is going on, but I am happy to take a look at the issue.

I've been facing a similar issue:

exec bash
sk --ansi -i -c 'rg -l "{}"' --preview "cat {+}"

This is how I am able to reproduce this on my system:

#!/bin/bash
cd "$(mktemp -d)"

# Get v0.6.3 (an aribtrarily old version that works)
wget https://github.com/lotabout/skim/releases/download/v0.6.3/skim-v0.6.3-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz
tar -xzf skim-v0.6.3-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz
rm skim-v0.6.3-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz
mv sk sk_063

# Get v0.9.4 
wget https://github.com/lotabout/skim/releases/download/v0.9.4/skim-v0.9.4-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
tar -xzf skim-v0.9.4-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
rm skim-v0.9.4-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
mv sk sk_094


# Test v0.6.3 (working)
./sk_063 --ansi -i -c 'rg -t txt -l {}' --preview "cat {} | head -n 100"

# Test v0.9.4 (Not working!)
./sk_094 --ansi -i -c 'rg -t txt -l {}' --preview "cat {} | head -n 100"

if it's relevant, this was on bash 5.1.4.

edit: After playing with it for a while, it seems that the issue is that the --preview is incompatible with the command mode -c, which is really unfortunate because this was really useful for searching through documents.

So I fixed this by piping the output of find into skim, then the command mode and preview would work together, in the absence of piping those into sk the would not work together, I could either have a preview (just cat) or I could use the command mode.

Regardless, piping find into skim fixes this for me.

Preview with command seems to be working for me again in version 3.3.1
