Hi Robert,

I can't reproduce this with bash-completion/20060301-4. Here's what I have:

$ touch =foo
$ echo =<TAB>
[lists all files -- possibly a bug, but not this one]
$ echo "=<TAB>
$ echo "=foo"
$ echo \=<TAB>
$ echo \=foo

It behaves correctly (please note that the '"=' example might be a local
modification of mine -- it will be uploaded in the next version
nevertheless :) )

Kindly,
David

Create an empty directory, then put =foo in it.  This ensures a list of
files isn't offered, and you get the expansion directly, exposing this
bug.

Btw, use my new address when repliing.  I didn't see your earlier mail.

Ok, I got it now. Bug confirmed, we'll work on it ASAP!

(in these days I fixed another bug regarding "special characters", but it seems
like this one is still there... and I don't have much time now :( )

Thanks for your report,
David
