Subject: zsh 3.1.9-dev-6: trace output filename problem with patch
Date: Thu, 14 Sep 2000 00:37:51 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200009140437.AAA02999@soup.ql.org> (raw)
When inserting the command to look at the trace output from ^X? in an
editor, zsh forgets to quote the filename.
zsh% \ls^X?
Trace output left in /tmp/zsh1708\ls1 (up-history to view)
...
^P
emacsclient /tmp/zsh1708\ls1 ;: '\ls'
The problem: the \ in the filename needs to be quoted here but isn't.
The same things happens if there are other characters that require
quoting (such as *) in the first word. When inserting the editor
command into the history in _complete_debug, can't zsh quote $tmp?
Here is my suggested fix, made from the installed
3.1.9-dev-6/functions directory:
--- _complete_debug.safe Wed Sep 13 11:05:24 2000
+++ _complete_debug Thu Sep 14 00:29:57 2000
