Not so fast!
I have a custom dequoting function that performs backslash-dequoting,
and I *must* install it as a directory_completion_hook as well, or I'd
be unable to complete paths like 'funny\ dir/foo'.
The culprit appears to be this: While the filename_dequoting_function
results are assigned to 'user_dirname', opendir is called with
'dirname', effectively receiving a still quoted directory name.
The rl_filename_completion_function again:
if (rl_directory_completion_hook &&
(*rl_directory_completion_hook) (&dirname))
{
free (users_dirname);
users_dirname = savestring (dirname);
}
else if (rl_completion_found_quote &&
rl_filename_dequoting_function)
{
temp = (*rl_filename_dequoting_function) (users_dirname,
rl_completion_quote_character);
free (users_dirname);
users_dirname = temp;
}
directory = opendir (dirname); /* <-- STILL QUOTED! */
I fear you are going to tell me it's by design again, but I fail to
see how this is useful behavior - yet. ;-)
Thanks,
Stefan
