Even worse, it's confusing. Files in /etc/profile.d are only sourced for login shells; a typical xterm opens a non-login shell. A more appropriate way to use bash_completion is to check in .bashrc if the current shell is interactive and if so source an appropriate file. Perhaps the relevant shell fragment should go in /etc/skel/.bashrc instead. Hope that helps, Jonathan _______________________________________________ Bash-completion-devel mailing list Bash-completion-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/bash-completion-devel
