Hi! Just for a start, I am totally able to reproduce this on lenny, and it seems like Ferenc reported this also with lenny.

Am totally with you on this, the fix though isn't obvious. While escaping the dashes works to make them real dashes and this also seems to work with the backticks from my test, from a quick test I am not able to produce real apostrophs. Escaping them turns them into this: % grep-status -P -e ´apt|dpkg´ ... which isn't any better from a copy&paste approach. If anyone is able to find out how to properly escape apostrophs I am willing to commit the fix right ahead - I just don't want to commit a fix for the backticks *only*. If we want to fix it it should be a complete fix. :) Thanks! Rhonda -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
