It is dangerous though. When using `ls -l` to list a directory with links in it, it will produce an output similar to this: lrwxrwxrwx 1 user group 30 1980-01-01 00:01 link_name -> /path/to/destination/file Pretty cool, huh? However, if you select this line and accidentally hit right mouse button, it'll get copied to your prompt. And if you select more than one line, it'll get copied with \n which will get interpreted as if you pushed the Enter. So the whole line gets interpreted as a command: lrwxrwxrwx [no such command] 1 user group 30 1980-01-01 00:01 link_name - [parameters for non-existing command] > /path/to/destination/file [redirect output to that file] Since the output is empty, you'll get the target of that link overwritten with an empty file. My suggestion is to change the representation symbols of link to something that won't get interpreted.

I see the issue. Though I don't think there is anything we can do just to backwards compat. I'm sure there are scripts somewhere depending on the '->' portion. You're free to change that yourself though with a wrapper. See http://www.pixelbeat.org/scripts/l for example which uses '▪▶' instead. thanks, Pádraig.

The use of "->" is required by POSIX: http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/ls.html >> If the file is a symbolic link and the -L option is not specified, thi= s information shall be about the link itself and the field sha= ll be of the form: >>=20 >> "%s -> %s", , >>=20 So we can't change it unless we add a NEW option; but adding a new option means that it won't be available by default.

One thing you CAN do is set the noclobber option of your shell. POSIX requires that 'set -C' cripple '>' redirection to an existing file (scripts can force overwrites using '>|'). This would prevent the shell from doing any overwriting to empty files if you accidentally paste ls output, although it has the minor drawback that not all shell scripts are robustly written to still work in the presence of set -C. http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/V3_chap02.html#= set --=20 Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org --gni9pNk0ANe43piBDlXd2ThTm3kTC9cqJ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: Public key at http://people.redhat.com/eblake/eblake.gpg Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJThga5AAoJEKeha0olJ0NqoU8IAIBQPujsddBKUfSfXPiqRerk 03TWWpuNcTkTGvq8EtgZ793NE8KN+Ysu+NDNnk1Dq0ypP4JbfMkfRiBMkoLJFuW1 +XYqPzXCpyNo+C+jDNNRiWQUTXD1aEqSsBS42iEBaHVztDg4Bz/21aVmt5gxyKvH 0POO6VEhQFY40xKQuVEj/2GBPF9oRSKCFURm9xG3zjBhIutp+696QM6h65pN553z oREHag1WnAQcpjF0EnSg20nwAuT1YRPiCpePjrhQfkG1gyw0K0l4IynkvK2C4GGG fjHZArqFaCD+sYBKudSEeEUrIQEr/gc1e2MB5S0rajxzFPfqMXpD6brVyzCSqsg= =oztx -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --gni9pNk0ANe43piBDlXd2ThTm3kTC9cqJ-- From unknown Mon Jun 23 09:41:03 2025 X-Loop: help-debbugs@gnu.org Subject: bug#17618: Oh, well...

I'd say that the first thing for me to do about it is to actually pay attention when using mouse. 'set -C' is a decent idea, however I think the problem is dangerous only for folks that don't know about it. I guess I'll just spread the word so that others wouldn't do the same silly mistake I did. "It's a console, dammit. Leave the bloody mouse alone" ;) Cheers, Mike
