Summary: filename completion thinks it's in the wrong directory!
Details:
Running on Portnoy, and RT in the SIPB office, I have the following
command line:
perl -e 'while (<>) {$s+=$_;}; printf "%d\n", $s;'
[I'm learning perl, which is why I didn't use awk.] Anyway, I went to
enter the filename, which is Backg. I attempted to do this by typing
B and a ctl-Z (since that is unique and faster). I was beeped at. So
I tried b and ctl-Z, and got this list of completions:
> backup bgplot bindtest.older break
> backuperr bibtex biod breaksw
> badsect bibtex.0.98ib bison brushtopbm
> basename bibtex.0.99c bison-1.11 bsh
> bash biff bison-1.14 btoa
> bash-1.07.4-cwru biglatex bison.old bulkpost
> bc bigslitex bitmap bulkpost.longform
> bdftosnf bigtex blanche bulkpost.shortform
> beta bin bm
> betaxrn bindtest bmtoa
> bg bindtest.old bootpd
which looks like a subset of /mit/sipb/@sys to me.
My path is set as:
