Hi, I've been searching the BASH manual ( https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bash.html) to find out about the precedence/sequence that the shell parses commands. The particular question I've had which I was helped with: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/526646/precedence-of-subshells-in-relation-to-redirection .
May I request a slight edit in the sentence from section 3.7.1 Simple Command Expansion: "When a simple command is executed, the shell performs the following expansions, assignments, and redirections, from left to right. " to something like: "When a simple command is executed, the shell performs the following expansions, assignments, and redirections, from left to right, in the following sequence." or "When a simple command is executed, the shell performs the following expansions, assignments, and redirections, from left to right, with the following precedence. " As this makes it a bit more explicit that the following list gives a sequence/precedence that tells us the order in which commands are parsed. The intended meaning wasn't fully clear to me upon first reading and I believe that this would make the documentation more readable and might prevent cases of similar confusion. Best wishes, Gavin Rebeiro
