Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
in a tcsh execute these commands:
set rmstar
mkdir test
cd test
touch bla
rm *
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
tcsh asks "Do you really want to delete all files? [N/y] " and answered with "y"
tcsh doesnt continue, instead I'm looping in the answer and only ^C stops it
Note, if $rmstar is unset, everything works as expected
* What was the outcome of this action?
nothing happens anymore. no prompt, no command execution.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
"/bin/rm *" should be executed
