Patch Level: 0
Release Status: release
Description:
It seems that if you quote a single quote with double quotes
then start single quotes again the rest of the single quoted
structure will do history expansion on a '!' character.
Repeat-By:
works:
sbeck@sbeck sbeck $ echo '!bar'
!bar
works:
sbeck@sbeck sbeck $ echo ""'!bar'
!bar
doesn't work:
sbeck@sbeck sbeck $ echo "'"'!bar'
-bash: !bar: event not found
