bash 2.05b mystery

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello list,
I was experimenting with bash 2.05b.0(1) on RH8 on 2 different 
machines and noticed the following on both:

[root] # cd /
[root] # echo [A-B]*
bin boot

Why does it find the lowercase names?  I was expecting them only 
if I had executed 

echo [a-b]*


However-----
with bash 2.05a.0(1) on RH7.3  I get:

[root] # cd /
[root] # echo [A-B]*
[A-B]*

which looks right.

It works as expected with 2.05a and with tcsh, which returns 
"echo: No match"  in response to echo [A-B]*

What am I overlooking???

TIA

John
