The following reply was made to PR bin/117748; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Jilles Tjoelker <jil...@stack.nl> To: bug-follo...@freebsd.org, rick.s...@yahoo.ca Cc: Subject: Re: bin/117748: sh(1): Backslash quote fails in pattern for substring processing. Date: Sun, 14 Mar 2010 14:20:11 +0100
[pattern matching characters in ${v#pat}, ${v%pat} cannot be quoted] This is easy to fix if bin/57554 is fixed first. Currently double quotes continue into ${v#pat} like they do into ${v+word}, different from what the man page says. Once that is fixed, a well-directed EXP_CASE will do it. -- Jilles Tjoelker _______________________________________________ freebsd-bugs@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-bugs-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
