Summary: _get_cword breaks command substitution
Distribution: None
Originally reported in: Fedora / Red Hat Bugzilla
Milestone: None
Status: None
Original bug number: 512625
Initial Comment:
_get_cword breaks command substitutions ($(...), `...`) by turning them into literal strings.
For example, when one writes "somecommand $(cat /tmp/f<TAB>" the intention is to complete /tmp/f* files, but if the "somecommand" completion does `_get_cword`, that stuff turns to a literal '$(cat /tmp/f' string which is then processed later in the "somecommand" completion function.
