https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=256473 --- Comment #4 from Stefan Eßer <se@FreeBSD.org> --- (In reply to Jason W. Bacon from comment #2) > I created a simple test case to reduce noise in this thread, and things got weirder: > > Default shell is tcsh. > > FreeBSD coral.acadix bacon ~/Test 1032: ls > aardvark Alan Bob zip > > FreeBSD coral.acadix bacon ~/Test 1033: ls -d [A-Z]* Alan Bob zip This is to be expected. The sequence is: "AaBb..Zz" and you are selecting for all initial letters except for the files starting with "z" (which comes after "Z"). > FreeBSD coral.acadix bacon ~/Test 1034: ls -d [a-z]* > aardvark Alan Bob zip This is to be expected. The sequence is as above and you are selecting for all except those starting with "A" (which is "to the left" of "a"). > FreeBSD coral.acadix bacon ~/Test 1035: bash > [bacon@coral ~/Test]$ ls -d [A-Z]* > Alan Bob > > [bacon@coral ~/Test]$ ls -d [a-z]* > aardvark zip > [/quote] This is the behavior of BASH if the "globasciiranges" shell option is set to on. Check this with the following command: $ shopt globasciiranges globasciiranges on This is an off by default option according to the bash man-page, but apparently set in your environment. With this variable set to off, bash behaves exactly like the other shells. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.help
