Description Gregorio Guidi 2003-12-04 19:27:56 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.93)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc (GCC) 3.2.3 20030422 (Gentoo Linux 1.4 3.2.3-r3, propolice) 
OS:          Linux

konsole from kde-3.2 beta1, in a bash shell
say you are in a directory with the files: test1, test2

you type: "ls te<TAB>" and you expect that the line is completed to "ls test" and that you hear a beep. 

In fact there's the beep and the line _is_ completed, BUT it doesn't appear. Moving the cursor will reveal that the completion was there, just didn't show up.

If the completion is unique (there is only the file test1) it does appear.

Very strange: this bug is not triggered the first time you try after opening a konsole, you can see it from the second failed completion.

xterm behaves regularly.

Anyone can reproduce this or i'm seeing ghosts?

I can't figure out why this bug appeared, but removing konsolerc solved it.
Closing.

I notice that this bug can be triggered if there is a previously
tab-completion attempt. Take an example of two directories:
test1 and test2. Further, test1 contains 2 files: try1 and try2.
First, type "cd t<TAB>" (you'll hear beep), then just proceed to
enter test1. Under test1, type "cat t". At this state, there's
chance that the bug will be triggered.
