Note to SKsh 1.5 users: ---------------------- There is a bug in SKsh 1.5 when the "C" option is RESET which causes filename completion to break. The workaound for this problem is to always set the "C" flag. It is set by default in the .skshinit file. The "C" flag controls whether the complist is used. If the complist is empty, the state of the "C" flag doesn't matter, so no functionality is lost. I appologize for any inconvience. I'd also like to thank Bryan Bayerdorffer for pointing this problem out. It will be fixed in SKsh 1.6. If the "C" flag was reset by default, then I would fix it in an immediate 1.5A release, but I don't think most people will run into it. If you know someone who has, please point out the workaround to them. Thanks! - steve PS - I know it is a pretty feeble excuse, but the regression tests I run under SKsh before each release only test non-interactive functionality. In other words, command line editing is not tested. I plan to fix this soon to hopefully prevent most problems of this type.
