Dear all
This may be slightly OT, but I'm using on a FreeBSD machine. How to convert
following into bash style?
echo ${X} ${Z}
echo ${Y} ${Z}
Best regards

Exactly the same in posix standard /bin/sh or in bash. bash(1) should
be capable of running any compliant /bin/sh script directly.

Perhaps I am misinterpreting your question; however, if I define both
${X} and ${Z} in a script prior to running your snippet, I do not

I want to append all variables in X and Y into Z so that echo $Z
should be:
XX1=YES XX2=YES YY1=YES YY2=YES
Redirection is not the right way to do it. Just do this:
$ Z=$X $Y
$ echo $Z
XX1=YES XX2=YES YY1=YES YY2=YES

So, what's the value of ${Z}? Unless that expands to something that
could be a valid file name you'll get an error
