All that was said is that there could have been a bug in bash. But you showed us a way out of it, so thanx again.
There is no bug in bash completion ... beside that is is not very handy like completion in tcsh or zsh. As you can see from script in attachment #273967 it requires wide bash knowledge to write such scripts ... a reason why some of the hasty written completion functions of the bash_completion package will fail in some corner cases. And the reason why simple completions for the cd command leads into such large shell function as found in /etc/profile.d/complete.bash ... you may compare this with /etc/profile.d/complete.tcsh ... last one is (IMHO) much more reliable. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
