---------------------------------------------------------------------- (0005997) kre (reporter) - 2022-10-19 11:50 https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=249#c5997 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- In https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=249#c5995 in the proposed new section 2.2.4, the penultimate bullet point is: <tt>\ddd</tt> yields the byte whose value is the octal value ddd (one to three octal digits). Which suggests to me that \567 is required to yeild the byte whose octal value is 0567 which is something of a challenge. There are multiple ways this could be fixed, but as far as I can tell, all sells which I can test, which also implement $' (as other than a $ preceding a single quoted string) all conform to; <tt>\ddd</tt> yields the byte whose value is the least significant 8 bits of the octal value ddd (one to three octal digits). I understand the need for the final bullet point (\<nl> gives unspecified results) -- I see all 3 reasonable interpretations for that in at least one shell which supports $' (treating it as a line join, simply pretending the backslash is not there <ie: \<nl> is <nl>) is treating the sequence literally \<nl> is <nl>) [aside: only the first makes any sense to me, the ability to insert a line wrap in the middle of the string is useful, and while it can be achieved by ending the $' string, adding a \<nl> and then starting a new $' string, that is cumbersome - on the other hand the 2nd interp (simply drop the \) can be done by simply omitting the \ in the input string, and the latter, by properly escaping the \ (resulting in \\<nl>) both of which are easy, but never mind]. However, there is nothing in the text being added to XRAT about why \<nl> is unspecified, and there probably should be, for future generations. Also, assuming that \u and \U are part of the C standard (I actually have no idea on that assumption) then explaining why they're not being included here would also help.
