Bash Version: 3.0
Patch Level: 15
Release Status: release
Description:
In Bash 3.x (confirmed in 3.0 under variety of platforms and 3.1-6.2),
when using vi-mode the repeat function (.) will stop working after a
few lines of editing. Instead of repeating the previous command it will
exhibit various bad behaviors (delete character under cursor or replace
character under cursor with a different character)
Repeat-By:
> bash
>ls foo\ (bar)
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('
(type: <ESC>kwwwi\<ESC>ww.<ENTER>)
>ls foo\ \(bar\)
ls: foo (bar): No such file or directory
(type: <ESC>kk<ENTER>)
>ls foo\ (bar)
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('
(type: <ESC>kwwwi\<ESC>ww.<ENTER>)
>ls foo\ \(bar <--- This is wrong!
ls: foo (bar: No such file or directory
