Re: [Help-bash] bash 4.2 expand $ vars on <tab>

[DJ Mills]

There are threads about this all over the mailing list...
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/bash.git/log/?h=direxpand is a branch
of 4.2 that already has this patched


http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2011-12/msg00079.html
is one thread on the issue, I think it also includes the patch.
