Errors on Cygwin because of dot suffix on filenames #17

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. cygwin$ source bash_completion_lib
2. cygwin$ cd <TAB>

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Cd should complete.  Instead you get error message "cd. not found"

It appears that final dots on files and directories are always valid under
Cygwin/Windows.

Solution for `bash_completion_lib' is to convert the final dot (.) on filenames 
to a
final exclamation mark (!).

Changed synlink-ignore character from dot (.) to exclamation mark (!) to satisfy
Cygwin/Windows in r36.
