The /usr/bin/rem script lets the shell expand the repeat parameter.
The repeat parameter '*rep' is expanded by bash if a suitable match is
found.
If there is a file matching "*7" (ie. foo7), the repeat
parameter '*7' will be expanded to this filename, and remind won't
understand the input.
example:
$ touch foo7
$ rem '*7'
The obvious patch is here. It simply avoids the expansion by quoting
the PARAMETERS variable.
