Summary: bash_completion doesn't work on asterix (wildcard): e.g. mv *.txt<TAB> 
Distribution: --Distribution-Agnostic--
Originally reported in: None
Milestone: None
Status: None
Original bug number: 


Initial Comment:
Hi,

One thing that has bugged me is that <TAB> doesn't complete things with 
asterixes in them.

For example,

$ mv *.txt<TAB>

would produce the filenames of all files with extension .txt when NOT using 
bash_completion. This is useful as a check to see what files you're actually 
moving (in the example above).

When using bash_completion, hitting <TAB> doesn't do anything.

Any hints or workarounds for this problem?


Thanks,
Alan
