Dan Douglas dixit: >For "$@" that sounds about right. I think it would be preferable if x="$@" and >x=$@ were the same. If a user wants IFS-delimited they should probably use
Hrm, but the docs, both, specifically say that (unquoted) $@ behaves like $* except in the face of no arguments, so I cannot do that. But thanks for the feedback. My reading differed, but you have a point, and the others can be kept as-is. bye, //mirabilos -- FWIW, I'm quite impressed with mksh interactively. I thought it was much *much* more bare bones. But it turns out it beats the living hell out of ksh93 in that respect. I'd even consider it for my daily use if I hadn't wasted half my life on my zsh setup. :-) -- Frank Terbeck in #!/bin/mksh
