Package: bash Version: 4.3-14 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer,
Tab completion seems to work fine for file names with special characters. Except with newlines: touch "$(echo -e 'a\ttab')" touch "$(echo -e 'with-a\rcr')" touch "$(echo -e 'but-a\nnl')" Tab completion works fine for the first two files. But for the last one I get: $ echo b<tab><tab> but-a nl $ echo bu<tab><tab> but-a nl and so forth. I tried '\echo' instead, just in case this is cased by a broken completion function. But I get the same result. I'll just note that this is a minor issue I never actually ran into in "real life". -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: armhf Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=he_IL.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=he_IL.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages bash depends on: ii base-files 9.4 ii dash 0.5.7-4+b1 ii debianutils 4.5.1 ii libc6 2.19-22 ii libncurses5 6.0+20150810-1 ii libtinfo5 6.0+20150810-1 Versions of packages bash recommends: ii bash-completion 1:2.1-4.2 Versions of packages bash suggests: pn bash-doc <none> -- no debconf information
