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 -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Kernel: Linux 2.6.21-2-powerpc Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages rc depends on: ii libc6 2.6-2 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libncurses5 5.6-3 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libreadline5 5.2-3 GNU readline and history libraries rc recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
