[Bug 53887] Re: [patch] Command completion should be enhanced
There is now bash 4.3-rc2, which allows show-all-if-ambiguous and menu- complete-display-prefix to be used at the same time. However, it seems that bash completes directory names with ending / symbol. My original patch completed directories without the / so that user can type / and then push tab to indicate that he/she would like enter the directory and then continue browsing there. With bash 4.3-rc2, I am not sure how to continue browsing into a directory which is shown as an completion. I sent a question to upstream if there is an option to prevent bash from writing / at the end of directory name completions when browsing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/53887 Title: [patch] Command completion should be enhanced To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash/+bug/53887/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 53887] Re: [patch] Command completion should be enhanced
For bash 4.2 the maintainers have implemented features which can be activated to get the wanted behavior. See .inputrc config options. However, it can be seen from bash-4.2 source code that there is a bug in the implementation which prevents needed set show-all-if-ambiguous and set menu-complete-display-prefix to be activated at the same time. I reported this bug to bash maintainers 2012-March and sent the patch to fix the bug, but at least ubuntu 12.10 is still shipping a bash version with the bug. --- Configuration for .inputrc --- TAB:menu-complete set show-all-if-ambiguous on set menu-complete-display-prefix on --- ** Patch added: A fix for the bug which prevents set show-all-if-ambiguous and set menu-complete-display-prefix to be used at the same time. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash/+bug/53887/+attachment/3500978/+files/complete.c.diff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/53887 Title: [patch] Command completion should be enhanced To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash/+bug/53887/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi, There was some changes in bash 4.0, which pervented the bash-3.2 patch to apply successfully. Here is a patch for bash 4.0. Matthias, can you please forward the patch to the upstream?
