Hi, Our project did a version bump of libedit to 20180525-3.1 and noticed spaces are now being escaped with a backslash with chronyc's tab-completion.
Example: -- chronyc> sources<TAB> sources sources -v sourcestats sourcestats -v chronyc> sources<SPACE><TAB> chronyc> sources\ -v <RETURN> Unrecognized command -- The change occurred with libedit revision 1.47 2017/10/15 http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/lib/libedit/filecomplete.c.diff?r1=1.46&r2=1.47 I took a stab at a fix by patching CPS_NormalizeLine() ... --- chrony-3.3/cmdparse.c.orig 2018-06-08 17:07:48.644094438 -0500 +++ chrony-3.3/cmdparse.c 2018-06-08 17:28:30.578778580 -0500 @@ -218,7 +218,8 @@ if (first && strchr("!;#%", *p)) break; - *q++ = *p; + if (!(*p == '\\' && isspace((unsigned char)*(p+1)))) + *q++ = *p; space = first = 0; } and it solves the issue with limited testing.
