- ----- From: David Rothenberger Subject: Problem with bash completion Sometimes bash gets confused and starts adding a slash at the end of files when I do tab-completion. Here's a simple reproduction script: ~ > bash --noprofile --norc -i bash-3.2$ mkdir /tmp/bash-problem bash-3.2$ cd /tmp/bash-problem bash-3.2$ mkdir d bash-3.2$ touch x bash-3.2$ chmod 755 x bash-3.2$ ./x <---- tab after x completes correctly bash-3.2$ ./d/ <---- ditto with d bash: ./d/: is a directory bash-3.2$ "$(ls ./d/)" <---- pressed tab after d bash: : command not found bash-3.2$ ./x/ <---- tab after x now adds slash Once the shell starts doing this, it keeps doing it. Restarting bash solves the problem. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (Cygwin) Comment: Public key at home.comcast.net/~ericblake/eblake.gpg Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkfYkD0ACgkQ84KuGfSFAYDDGwCfalSk2f/RJfh4ysHaET9Wh7tz xH4AoKVip75HIyoEtXfMkIvDTT80N6Ii =HdVT -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
