Too often I end up having to write something like if (($#)); then <func|exec> "$@" else <func|exec> #<func|exec> = function or executable call fi
It would be nice to have a expansion that preserves arg boundaries but that expands to nothing when there are 0 parameters (because whatever gets called still sees "" as a parameter) So, example, something like: $~ == "$@" #for 1 or more params $~ == no param when 0 param, # so for the above if/else/endif one could just use 1 line: <func|exec> $~ My examples used ~, as I didn't think it was used anywhere. I can't control how called programs will handle / deal with a present, but empty parameter, which is why I thought something that expands to nothing in the empty case would seem ideal. Anyone else have a trivial solution for this problem?
