It looks like the patch is over-agressive allowing backslashes to quote characters in a backquoted command substitution. I will update the patch, and send out the new one.

However, for f in `seq 2`; do echo /dev/null; done|wc -l yields 2 (presumably because of using the bash builtin echo) ___ Bug-bash mailing list Bug-bash@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-bash
Bash-3.1 Official Patch 10 - UPDATED
BASH PATCH REPORT = Bash-Release: 3.1 Patch-ID: bash31-010 Bug-Reported-by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug-Reference-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Bug-Reference-URL: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2006-01/msg00090.html Bug-Description: There is a difference in behavior between bash-3.0 and bash-3.1 involving parsing of single- and double-quoted strings occurring in old-style command substitution. The difference has to do with how backslashes are processed. This patch restores a measure of backwards compatibility while the question of POSIX conformance and ultimately correct behavior is discussed. THIS IS AN UPDATED PATCH.

You probably have ls aliased to 'ls -F', or some combination of options that includes -F. (Check with "alias ls".) Read the documentation for ls to see if there is a different combination of options that gives you the behavior you want. If you can't find it, you can write to bug-coreutils@gnu.org to submit a feature request. paul ___ Bug-bash mailing list Bug-bash@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-bash
