Hi there,
I have bash 4.2.8(2)-release with readline 6.2 running on GNU/Linux.
I've exported a variable and when I press TAB, the result is a backslash.
For example, with the case of the $HOME variable:
$ mkdir $HOME/test
$ cd $HOME/test<TAB>
The result is:
cd \$HOME/test
Instead of showing the full path.
Why bash 4.2 is trying to escape an environment variable (expanding with a
directory or a file)?.
Already discussed. See the discussion starting at
