Package: bash
Version: 3.0-12
Severity: minor
Commands echoed injob control messages are not properly escaped.
To illustrate, try this in an xterm/rxvt:
(: "^[[31m") &
^^ replace this by ctrl-v escape
to insert a _verbatim_ escape character,
i.e. <ctrl-v> <escape> '[' '3' etc.
You'll get something similar to this:
cerebro ~# (: "^[[31m") &
[1] 7305
[1] Done ( : "" )
cerebro ~#
except that the text is red starting with the last '"' character, in
the "Done" message, as the escape [31m command sequence has been output
verbatim to the terminal, instead of quoting it as when inputting it.
The output of the jobs builtin and other messages are also affected.
