No, it’s on the email...Anyway, here’s the text! bash-5.1$ echo $PATH /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin/:/usr/local/bin/:/usr/local/bin/
bash-5.1$ cat << $PATH > /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin/:/usr/local/bin/:/usr/local/bin/ > it should have terminated with the upper delimiter! but, bash does not seem > to expand PATH. > $PATH /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin/:/usr/local/bin/:/usr/local/bin/ it should have terminated with the upper delimiter! but, bash does not seem to expand PATH. bash-5.1$ ok, but now addressing the actual question. If I use unclosed quotes on heredoc, I can't use the given delimiter to end the heredoc, I end up having to use an EOF. Example: bash-5.1$ bash-5.1$ cat « ola" > I, > ola"" > ola" > ola > bash: warning: here-document at line 31 delimited by end-of-file (wanted 'ola ') ola"" ola" ola In the above example, I don't unterstand how to provide the wanted delimiter! I try to close the quote, in case it is needing it, but even with both quotes, just one or none, it doesn't close...not even with a '\n' char Kind regards, João Almeida Santos > On 17 Nov 2021, at 18:34, Alex fxmbsw7 Ratchev <fxmb...@gmail.com> wrote: > > u forgot to attach the picture .. ? > > On Wed, Nov 17, 2021, 19:31 João Almeida Santos <j-almeidasan...@hotmail.com > <mailto:j-almeidasan...@hotmail.com>> wrote: > Thank you for your reply Robert and Lawrence! > > I understand the description alone is hard to follow, so I think the image > below should make it clearer.
