I was just navigating around on one of the machines in my lab, when I noticed something wierd: bash is getting the name of one of my directories wrong when it tries to print it in the prompt.
[bloom@zuni ~]$ cd / [bloom@zuni /]$ ls bin/ etc/ lib/ media/ proc/ srv/ var/ boot/ home/ lib32/ mnt/ root/ sys/ vmlinuz@ data/ home-raid/ lib64@ nonexistent/ sbin/ tmp/ dev/ initrd.img@ lost+found/ opt/ selinux/ usr/ [bloom@zuni /]$ cd data [bloom@zuni dtaa]$ pwd /data [bloom@zuni dtaa]$ echo ~+ /data [bloom@zuni dtaa]$ mount /dev/sda1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro) tmpfs on /lib/init/rw type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,mode=0755) proc on /proc type proc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw,mode=0755) tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev) devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,noexec,nosuid,gid=5,mode=620) fusectl on /sys/fs/fuse/connections type fusectl (rw) binfmt_misc on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) nas.lingcog.iit.edu:/home2 on /home-raid type nfs (rw,nosuid,noatime,addr=216.47.152.22) nas.lingcog.iit.edu:/data on /data type nfs (rw,nosuid,noatime,addr=216.47.152.22) It's correctly spelled in the pwd command, and bash's ~+ expansion, and also in the mount command (/data happens to be a mountpoint), so basically it's correctly spelled everywhere except for the prompt. Any ideas why? --Ken _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
