Anyone else have this problem or is it just me? Thanks Lee

What seems a bit strange is that $ diff >| /tmp/xc<alt>M<alt>-<alt>/ gives me $ diff >| /tmp/xcompile.diff "/tmp/xc" doesn't start with any of "$~@", there is no command, alias or function that starts with "/tmp/xc" and so it seems like tab completion should give me the same thing as <alt>M-/ but it doesn't :-( Is there something I need to do so that tab completion after " >| " works?
