Re: completion always appends /
Hello GNU Bash developers! a week ago I've send you a bug report and as follow-up the fix patch below, but so far I did not get any reply, not even an ACK or ticket number that anyone received my mails. I would like to roll out that bug fix and did hope that I'll get a) any reaction and comment on my report and esp. on the patch b) this will be a an official patch before I roll out my new binaries. otherwise I'll have to revert my patch later and apply your (possibly different and better) fix later, resulting in another rollout which I'd like to avoid... anyone reading bash-bug mails these day ? any comments or suggestions/optimizations for this patch ? thanks for any hint!

It works fine for me using rxvt-unicode 8.1 and bash 3.2.13(1) from ubuntu 7.04. If a urxvt window is maximized or grows large enough to exceed the screen size, then the number of columns changes and $COLUMNS is updated immediately without using any kill command. (If the window is not maximized and remains small enough fit the screen then the number of lines and columns is not changed by the font change escape sequence.) -- Mike Stroyan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

There may not be an official patch for this; it's a relatively minor issue. Chet -- ``The lyf so short, the craft so long to lerne.'' - Chaucer Live Strong. No day but today.

Hi Chet, thanks for your quick answer!

YMMV. for me and some of my colleagues it's not that minor at all. my typical "work week" is to login on monday moring and logout every friday evening. during this time I "collect" multiple xterms with bash each having a directory stack of ~10-30+ and quite often 10++ backgound jobs (so I'm pretty shell based;) loosing the whole context of such a shell is pretty annoying, and with that / appended to every completion it's no fun anymore to work with such a shell... so for some of us this is real issue and one major reason to roll out a new bash version on 200+ machines (10+ different plattforms)... anyway, thanks for your help finding the correct place for this fix, Harald Koenig -- "I hope to die ___ _ before I *have* to use Microsoft Word.", 0--,|/OOO\ Donald E.
