  14 Bug-Description:
  15
  16 Two bugs:
  17
  18 How does it decide what characters are allowed. The following really
  19 looks like a bug to me:
  20 $ echo {<C4>..D}
  21 That's accepted and produces output that seems to wrap round to ^A and
  22 then goes up to D. Note that I'm using an ISO-8859-1 locale. If that
  23 works at all, it should surely descend.
  24
  25 This short script:
  26
  27 var=baz
  28 echo foo{bar,${var}.}
  29 echo foo{bar,${var}}
  30
  31 gives the following output with bash-3.0:
  32
  33 ./test: line 2: foo${var.}: bad substitution
  34 foobar} foobaz
