Description Yanko Kaneti 2006-11-24 17:37:30 UTC 
With the attached patch bash completion for the scp command also escapes single
quote characters "'" by matching the sed hex perlre escape for it "\x27". 

Not sure how portable this sed syntax is but it works for Fedora's sed.

Also sent to the upstream author.

Comment 2 Ville Skyttä 2006-12-07 19:17:38 UTC 
Have you heard back from upstream?
Comment 3 Yanko Kaneti 2006-12-07 19:51:03 UTC 
Nope. I did resent it today as it might have ended in a spamtrap or something...
If there is no answer I won't try any more.

Probably more portable approach

Here's a less pretty and efficient, but probably more portable approach.
