Subject: history completion oddity
Date: Tue, 20 Jun 2000 17:31:48 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <0FWG003OMOKZCF@la-la.cambridgesiliconradio.com> (raw)
I expect Sven will tell me this is the way it should work (or has to work),
but it's worth a try...
history completion (ESC-/) on
% echo ${PWD
does nothing. On
% echo ${PWD/
it gives me what I expect (don't ask):
% echo ${PWD/bc01/bc01/test}/$f
I would guess that something visceral is grabbing potential parameter
completions before the history code can do anything --- given the second
result, the list of history words is OK, and also, more subtly, it's not
falling over on the incompletely parsed parameter. I didn't get very far
looking at the trace output, a large chunk of which (in my case) seems to
be testing for colouring strings.
