I noticed that, using ksh, if you try to tab-complete any filename that has a '[' in it while there are more than one file in the directory will fail. Simple example:
$ mkdir test $ cd test $ touch [a] [b] $ pico \[a at the last line, if you type tab, the system beeps and nothing else happens. It is not such a big deal for files with small names like the ones in the example but can get annoying if you have to type in verbatim a 60-caracter filename. So this leads to my question. Is it a design feature, a POSIX requierment, or simply something that has gone unnoticed? -- "They allowed us to set up a separate division almost, that is physically, geographically, psychologically and spiritually different from what Bill himself calls the Borg" - Peter Moore, V.P. in charge of Xbox 360 marketing at Microsoft.
