Related problem

i often use the fzf fuzzy finder in nushell pipelines but i have a problem when not piping its output to str trim

according to @fdncred, the behaviour in https://asciinema.org/a/564496 is expected 👌

Note
code:

>_ let var = ("yes\nno" | to text | fzf | str trim); $var
yes

>_ let var = ("yes\no" | to text | fzf); $var
Error: nu::shell::external_command

  × External command failed

  help:

however, i find the error in itself not very descriptive 🤔
because, in the end, fzf does not fail at all here! 😮

Describe the solution you'd like

i'm not sure what the issue with fzf without str trim here is, so i do not know what the message should be 🤔

however, i'm pretty sure the fzf external command did NOT fail, so the error message should probably NOT be "External command failed" 😋

Describe alternatives you've considered
