I don't think so - as Stephan Bergman mentioned at the time http://www.mail-archive.com/d...@openoffice.org/msg13080.html this doesn't forbid bash-extensions, but rather only covers those functionality where bash and posix overlap. cat <<<$value >>somedoc for example still works, even if POSIXLY_CORRECT is set. (but isn't listed in posix, http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/utilities/xcu_chap02.html#tag_02_07_04 ) ciao Christian _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
