Hello list,

when I try to tab-complete a path following the cd command, and that
path does not exist, fish prints out a strange character instead of
complaining that the path does not exist. This looks like this for
example:

cd Pa$<100/>

where I hit the tab key right after the "a" of "Pa". Although a
backspace will delete $<100/> on character at a time, it seems that
fish does not consider it at all present. In the above example, when I
press backspace once

cd Pa$<100/

and then press tab to complete the path I get a list of paths which
begin with "P" and the line

cd P

All of this is on OS X by the way, using a gnome-terminal. I just
tried this in the Terminal application and there I don't get $<100/>.
When I hit the tab key right after the "a" in "Pa", the cursor just
sits there and nothing happens. It therefore seems to be only a
problem with the gnome-terminal/OS X combination. Oh, well, maybe
after all not something to do with fish but with gnome-terminal on OS
X. But maybe this report is still helpful...

Thanks for a great shell, nick
