Bash Version: 2.05b
Patch Level: 0
Release Status: release

Description:
        If an alias was added as the following command:

        $ alias vv="vim \"+call IMAP('NNO','\Note{<++>}<++>','tex')\" 
/tmp/Vim.tex"

        then, useing alias command to check:

        $ alias
        alias vv='vim "+call 
IMAP('\''NNO'\'','\''\Note{<++>}<++>'\'','\''tex'\'')" /tmp/Vim.tex'

        In fact, the output I expected was:

        $ alias
        alias vv='vim "+call IMAP('NNO','\Note{<++>}<++>','tex')" /tmp/Vim.tex'

        But the aliases which are in two different appearances worked
        as an identical function. In other words, both of them work in
        the same way. The only problem in the output of the alias vv is before 
every
        single-quote (') there was a sign ('\') which had a confused
        meaning.
