Bash Version: 2.04
Patch Level: 21
Release Status: release
Description:
DWIM can get in the way, but it can also help out a lot.
one place where it could help would be in the case of accidentally
pasting text into a shell window...mayhaps you think you've got a url
to paste
but you've got part of an email with '>' at the head of some lines and
so you
paste and get a bunch of dinging and a directory littered with new
files for
each line that began with >
this is easy to do and sometimes an annoying and disconcerting waste of
time.
Fix:
when there's a lot of typeahead, and the last line was bogus, look at
the next line to see if that's bogus, and if it is, then don't run the
rest of
the commands...perhaps put them in history with '#' or something.
