Bash Version: 4.1
Patch Level: 5
Release Status: release
Description:
When using a here-document at the command line, bash inserts a
semicolon into the history.
Repeat-By:
I type the following at a bash prompt:
$ { cat <<eof
eof
}
then press up-arrow. I see this:
$ { cat <<eof
eof
; }
If I press Enter, I get an error:
-su: syntax error near unexpected token `;'
Bash has inserted a semi-colon before the "}".
