** Summary changed: - Bash autocomplete of date within backquotes fails + Bash programmed autocomplete of commands with space within backquotes fails
** Description changed: Binary package hint: bash - It appear as though Bash autocompletes the "date" command within - backquotes, but fails to do so properly: + With Bash programable autocomplete (/etc/bash_completion), commands + within backquotes containing a space doesn't get autocompleted properly: $ touch ~/some_file_`date -I`.txt $ ls ~/some_file_`date -I`.txt - /home/dermoth/some_file_2008-08-03.txt + /home/gaby/some_file_2008-08-03.txt So far this works, but if I press the <TAB> key at the end of the command: - $ ls ~/some_file`date /home/dermoth/some_file_2008-08-03.txt + $ ls ~/some_file`date /home/gaby/some_file_2008-08-03.txt The autocompletion doesn't overwrite the whole argument and leaves "~/some_file`date " in front of it.
