Hello all, yesterday I wanted to try out rc-httpd on p9p&linux. There, in an rc script was sth along the following lines:
file = aaanamebb a = name if(~ $file *$a*) echo y and the script returned rc: null list in concatenation I wrote to the author that I believe he should have written *$a^* in the condition. Nonetheless I have 2 questions: 1) if *$a* is left there, is the meaning really: whatever_non_blank + contents of $a + literal * ? 2) it took me some time to localize where the problem was since the only output of the script was what I wrote above; so I went commenting & uncommenting... Is there any better way? Can rc be told to give some more helpful info? Thanks Ruda
