Hi! 2006/11/1, Eric Blake <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Which shell are you using? Bash 3.2.0 had a bug in parsing # inside ``; it was fixed in bash 3.2.1.
I don't know. :-) Most likely version 2.05b.0(1). Its for sure smaller than 3.1.0(1). %-) The reson for this dizzyness is because I have bashdb that officially builds against bash 3.1 according to the build instructions. $ type sh; type bash sh is /bin/sh bash is hashed (/usr/local/bin/bash) $ /bin/sh --version GNU bash, version 2.05b.0(1)-release (powerpc-apple-darwin8.0) Copyright (C) 2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc. $ /bin/bash --version GNU bash, version 2.05b.0(1)-release (powerpc-apple-darwin8.0) Copyright (C) 2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc. $ /usr/local/bin/bash --version GNU bash, version 3.1.0(1)-release (powerpc-apple-darwin8.8.0) Copyright (C) 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
