Was this intentional? Hm. No. The new code uses what is now probably the standard way to do quoting. I.e. you get the same as with the (q) parameter flag. The different style in compctl wasn't intentional (I mean: it wasn't intentional *there*). And personally I like the quoted form better even if it is sometimes unnecessary. Especially if I compare the strings inserted for matches like `a*~b'. Other opinions? Bye Sven -- Sven Wischnowsky wischnow@informatik.hu-berlin.de
