Package: rc
Version: 1.7.1-3
Severity: normal
Hi,
This is somewhat related to the bug reported couple of years ago about
command completion. That one was indeed a wish-list for a new feature,
this one is definitely a bug.
If rc completes file and directory names it should somehow escape the
special characters if they contain any (.e.g. a space, a semicolon, etc.).
I've got couple of ideas how this could be achieved:
1. Automatically applying the quotes wherever they're needed when pressing
the "Tab" - seems reasonable since quotes are already used for that.
2. Adding a bit more functionality to the backslash sign since it only
does one thing - sounds most reasonable since it would be both sh and csh
compatible.
3. Introducing a whole new way to do it - doesn't seem reasonable to me.
P.S. At this time I'm only testing it as an interactive shell, but if
this is fixed I'll change my login shell to rc ... command completion
wouldn't hurt either.
P.P.S. How about aliases? ... Just kidding ;^)
Regards,
rjc
