Package: tcsh
Version: 6.17.02-3
Severity: normal
If the alias "jobcmd" contains "!#:q", then all your typed commands are
stored twice in the history. Once as typed, and once with only the first
argument (and aliases expanded).
The issue does not arise if you don't use the ":q" modifier. This bug
was not present in 6.17.02-3 and is present in 6.17.02-2.
Here's how you can reproduce this:
1. Set jobcmd to use !#:q in some way. E.g.:
alias jobcmd echo -n '"\e]0;"\!#:q"\a"'
2. Run any command. E.g.
/bin/echo a b
3. See the bottom of your history.
583 0:31 /bin/echo a b
-50000000 0:31 /bin/echo a
584 0:31 history | tail
4. Alternately go up in the history (using the "up" key). You'll first
see a command "/bin/echo a" (which you never typed). Pressing the
"up" key again, you'll get the command "/bin/echo a b" which you
typed.
