Bash Version: 2.05a
Patch Level: 0
Release Status: release
Description:
Using bind -x keyseq:func I assign a shell function to a key.
Whenever I press this key, the function is properly executed but
bash seems to be in an inconsistent state for the duration of the
next prompt.
NOTE: This bug was even worse in bash-2.05. It has been fixed
somewhat in bash-2.05a but there are still some quirks (see
Repeat-By).
Repeat-By:
# 1st problem:
PROMPT_COMMAND='PS1="`pwd`> "'
func() { cd.. ; }
bind -x '"\C-o":func'
#Now press Ctrl-O. Bash gives a new prompt that shows the
#directory unchanged.
#Press ENTER or Ctrl-C so that bash gives you a new prompt.
#The new prompt shows that in fact the directory was changed.
# 2nd problem:
alias l='ls -la'
func() { : ; }
bind -x '"\C-o":func'
l #just to see that the alias works
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 28 15:26 .
drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 4096 Feb 16 11:38 ..
#Now press Ctrl-O. Bash gives a new prompt.
l #try the alias again
bash: l: command not found
#^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Somehow bash has forgotten the alias
l #try yet another time
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 28 15:26 .
drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 4096 Feb 16 11:38 ..
#^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Now it's working again
