Stupid question number 1: What shell are you using interactively?
Stupid question number 2: How are you invoking your shell-script?
You are probably using bash interactively; most Linux users are. You may be using sh or /bin/sh to run your script. They are different shells, and have different features. Make sure your script is invoked thus:
Code:
bash script
and the first line looks like:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
Now, finally, you are using extended globbing in your copy. Extended globbing is an option in bash, and it has to be turned on. Add this line to the top of your script:

How can we copy a command string from a previous command line and paste it into the cursor position on the current command line? I know that ^c will not work as the shell will interpret as an interrupt signal.

rbash
RBASH(1) General Commands Manual RBASH(1)NAME
rbash - restricted bash, see bash(1)RESTRICTED SHELL
If bash is started with the name rbash, or the -r option is supplied at invocation, the shell becomes restricted. A restricted shell is
used to set up an environment more controlled than the standard shell. It behaves identically to bash with the exception that the follow-
ing are disallowed or not performed:
o changing directories with cd
o setting or unsetting the values of SHELL, PATH, ENV, or BASH_ENV
o specifying command names containing /
o specifying a file name containing a / as an argument to the . builtin command
o specifying a filename containing a slash as an argument to the -p option to the hash builtin command
o importing function definitions from the shell environment at startup
o parsing the value of SHELLOPTS from the shell environment at startup
o redirecting output using the >, >|, <>, >&, &>, and >> redirection operators
o using the exec builtin command to replace the shell with another command
o adding or deleting builtin commands with the -f and -d options to the enable builtin command
o using the enable builtin command to enable disabled shell builtins
o specifying the -p option to the command builtin command
o turning off restricted mode with set +r or set +o restricted.
These restrictions are enforced after any startup files are read.
When a command that is found to be a shell script is executed, rbash turns off any restrictions in the shell spawned to execute the script.
