Package: gnuplot

When typing file names in gnuplot, one can press tab to auto-complete the  
file name.  This is a very nice feature.  However, since an upgrade (not  
particularly recent), the file name is automatically followed by a space.   
Gnuplot requires that the file name be followed by a quotation mark.  So  
the user must remove the space for every single file.  Reverting to the  
previous behavior (no automatic space after file name) would be a big  
improvement.  Even better would be if auto-completion automatically  
inserted a quotation mark followed by a space after the file name.

This bug may be readline related.
