Initial Comment: From: Grahame <[email protected]> To: Debian Bug Tracking System <[email protected]> Subject: bash: completion error commands/directories conflict Date: Fri, 20 Aug 2004 14:25:57 +0100 Package: bash Version: 3.0-5 Severity: normal if you have a directory that is the same name as a system command then the directory will be completed when tab is pressed and not the command. For example I have mutella installed and I also have a directory called mutella in my home directory. Now if I type mutel and then press tab (whilst in my home directory) bash completes it to mutella/ and when return is then pressed bash complains: -bash: mutella/: is a directory ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: David Paleino (hanska-guest) Date: 30/01/2009 09:55 Message: From: Matthias Klose <[email protected]> To: Grahame <[email protected]>, [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: Bug#267060: bash: completion error commands/directories conflict Date: Sat, 28 Aug 2004 15:55:43 +0200 Grahame writes: > if you have a directory that is the same name as a system command then the > directory will be completed when tab is pressed and not the command. > > For example I have mutella installed and I also have a directory called > mutella in my home directory. > > Now if I type mutel and then press tab (whilst in my home directory) bash > completes it to mutella/ and when return is then pressed bash complains: > > -bash: mutella/: is a directory you could set mark-directories off in your .inputrc. AFAIK there is no way to tell which of the two choices takes precedence. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://alioth.debian.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=413095&aid=311397&group_id=100114 _______________________________________________ Bash-completion-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/bash-completion-devel
