Hi everybody, bash provides a really nice feature which allows for here documents to be formatted nicely in the containing script. Quote from the bash manpage:
-------8<------- If the redirection operator is <<-, then all leading tab characters are stripped from input lines and the line containing delimiter. This allows here-documents within shell scripts to be indented in a natural fashion. -------8<------- live-*'s shebangs all point to /bin/sh, however Debian aims to provide /bin/sh by /bin/dash or /bin/bash. And Although dash's manpage does not explicitly mention the '<<-' form of the input redirector, I just confirmed under squeeze that it is supported. If you think this is worth pursuing, I could work on patches for live-*. Cheers Daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-live-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
