Does that mean "reinput as a scalar variable assignment"? $ bash -c 'alias "a[1]=1"; alias' alias a[1]='1' $ bash -o posix -c 'alias "a[1]=1"; alias' a[1]='1' $ bash -o posix -c 'alias "*=1"; alias' *='1' None of that is suitable as reinput to the shell, neither as variable assignment, neither as alias invocations as those glob characters are not quoted; one would need to set the noglob option zsh's is suitable as reinput as: eval "saved_aliases=($(alias))" alias -- $saved_aliases Though of course that's not POSIX syntax and anyway zsh already exposes the list of aliases in the special $aliases associative array (not in sh emulation by default). Another way bash is not compliant is that in: alias a[0-9]=uname in a directory that contains a a1=uname file, it defines a a[0-9] alias instead of a1.
