An simple example follows, but they also attach in assignments, etc. This broke 4.11 scripts, so I know sh(1) has changed since then, but I am not qualified to state whether the current or previous behavior is correct. >How-To-Repeat: #!/bin/sh echo 'a comment follows'#comment.
$ ./script $ a comment follows#comment. >Fix: Requires someone knowledgeable with /bin/sh code. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: _______________________________________________ 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"
