Hi,
I'm doing some fixes in KDE's ark (GUI for various commandline
compress/decompress-utils). One thing i noticed while doing this is that tar is
unable to extract specific files with [ in the name.
Testcase:
touch \[test
tar cf test.tar \[test # works
rm \[test # move it out of the way
tar xf test.tar \[test # doesn't work
This was tested with bash 3.0 and tar (GNU tar) 1.15.1
Best regards
Alexander Rigbo
