Hi, I don't know what the etiquette is for using this mailing list but I hope it's OK to just get straight to the bug.
*STEPS TO REPRODUCE* 1. run the following commands to get everything set up: $ touch hiya $ mkdir '$HOME' $ touch '$HOME/hiya' 2. Now to reproduce the bug, type: $ rm "$HOME/hi THEN PRESS TAB! It incorrectly escapes the $ resulting in: $ rm "\$HOME/hiya" If the user does not notice and presses return it will DELETE THE WRONG FILE!!! GNU bash, version 4.3.30(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) libreadline6 6.3-8 Debian Testing Thankyou for maintaining bash and happy debugging! Joseph
