| Don't see why, lparen, like "=", is not a char that stops collection
| of a token body;
What standard are you reading?
XCU 2.3 (Token Recognition), rule 6:
6. If the current character is not quoted and can be used as the first
character of a new operator, the current token (if any) shall be delimited.
The current character shall be used as the beginning of the next
(operator) token.
Together with XBD 3.260
Operator
In the shell command language, either a control operator
or a redirection operator.
and XBD 3.113
Control Operator
In the shell command language, a token that performs a
control function. It is one of the following symbols:
& && ( ) ; ;; newline | ||
The end-of-input indicator used internally by the shell
is also considered a control operator.
Note: Token Recognition is defined in detail in XCU
Section 2.3 (on page 2347).
Do you see that '(' in that list? I do.
