Subject: Expanding quotes
Date: Tue, 17 Dec 2013 15:48:39 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <l8po7s$1og$1@ger.gmane.org> (raw)
Hi everyone,
mkdir test
cd test
touch file file\' file\"
ls *\"<TAB>
results in:
% ls file file\" file\'
although the result of the pure glob *\" is correct, and only contains
file\". This confused me yesterday, where I almost got the impression
that the quote was breaking the match.
Another tidbit:
% ls *[\']<TAB>
doesn't expand entirely, although it globs correctly file\' when executed.
The problem only exists with the quote/double quote (in both forms).
