This works:
$ bind 'set enable-bracketed-paste on'; bind -v | grep 'bracketed'
set enable-bracketed-paste on
However, almost any variation of the parameter "on" is not understood by
readline:
$ bind 'set enable-bracketed-paste on .'; bind -v | grep 'bracketed'
set enable-bracketed-paste off
$ bind 'set enable-bracketed-paste "on"'; bind -v | grep 'bracketed'
set enable-bracketed-paste off
Without any error or warning !!
It appears to fall to default value, while this:
$ bind 'set bell-style on' ; bind -v | grep 'bell-style'
set bell-style audible
$ bind 'set bell-style onf' ; bind -v | grep 'bell-style'
set bell-style audible
Stays at its last value.
It seems that the parser for this options is unable to process anything
after a valid parameter. And it doesn't emit an error or warning either.
Since the parser needs some improvement: Could it be possible to add the
capability to detect a `#` after the options as a comment ?
