Bash Version: 4.2 Patch Level: 7 Release Status: release Description: When enter in console "ls $HOME/" and press TAB for completion, then bash add slash for special characters like $ { } When I back to wersion 4.1_p10 then problem is gone. Problem also exists with 4.2_p6 and 4.2_p1 (these veriosn I have checked). Repeat-By: 1/ type: ls $HOME 2/ press TAB 3/ Should get: ls \$HOME 4/ Try the same with ${HOME} 5/ Should get \$\{HOME\}
