Given this text from the resolution of bug https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1649 ...<blockquote>It is implementation defined whether other white-space characters which appear in the value of IFS are also considered as "IFS white space". The three characters above specified as IFS white-space bytes are always IFS white space, when they occur in the value of IFS, regardless of whether they are white-space characters in any relevant locale. For other locale specific white-space characters allowed by the implementation it is unspecified whether the character is considered as IFS white space if it is white space at the time it is assigned to the IFS variable, or if it is white space at the time field splitting occurs (the locale may have changed between those events).</blockquote>... perhaps something like the following would work:<blockquote>If a <i>var</i> operand names one of the variables <i>LANG</i>, <i>LC_CTYPE</i>, or <i>LC_ALL</i> and the new value assigned to the variable would change which characters in <i>IFS</i> are considered to be <i>IFS</i> white space (see [xref XCU 2.6.5]), it is unspecified what, if any, effect the change has on how <i>read</i> performs field splitting.</blockquote> Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 2023-10-02 13:58 kre New Issue 2023-10-02 13:58 kre Name => Robert Elz 2023-10-02 13:58 kre Section => XCU 3/read 2023-10-02 13:58 kre Page Number => 3291-3294 2023-10-02 13:58 kre Line Number => 111869-111878, 111961-111963, 11946, 11979-11980 2023-10-02 14:00 kre Note Added: 0006500 2023-10-02 14:02 kre Note Edited: 0006500 2023-10-02 14:20 kre Note Added: 0006502 2023-10-02 14:22 kre Note Edited: 0006502 2023-10-02 14:24 kre Note Edited: 0006502 2023-10-02 14:30 kre Note Added: 0006503 2023-10-02 14:33 kre Note Edited: 0006502 2023-10-02 14:34 kre Note Edited: 0006502 2023-10-02 14:44 kre Note Edited: 0006500 2023-10-02 16:18 geoffclare Project 1003.1(2013)/Issue7+TC1 => Issue 8 drafts 2023-10-02 16:19 geoffclare version => Draft 3 2023-10-02 16:20 geoffclare Note Added: 0006507 2023-10-02 16:21 geoffclare Relationship added related to 0001649 2023-10-03 09:23 geoffclare Note Added: 0006509 2023-10-03 11:59 kre Note Added: 0006510 2023-10-03 12:11 kre Note Added: 0006511 2023-10-03 13:42 geoffclare Note Added: 0006512 2023-10-04 14:42 kre Note Added: 0006513 2023-10-04 17:36 kre Note Added: 0006514 2023-10-05 08:59 geoffclare Note Added: 0006515 2023-10-05 11:08 kre Note Added: 0006516 2023-10-05 14:53 geoffclare Note Added: 0006517 2023-10-05 15:34 kre Note Edited: 0006516 2023-10-05 15:35 kre Note Edited: 0006516 2023-10-05 15:36 kre Note Edited: 0006516 2023-10-05 15:38 kre Note Added: 0006519 2023-10-05 15:41 kre Note Edited: 0006513 2023-10-06 07:58 geoffclare Note Edited: 0006515 2023-10-06 21:41 chet_ramey Note Added: 0006524 2023-10-10 11:06 geoffclare Note Edited: 0006515 2023-10-10 14:36 geoffclare Note Added: 0006526 2023-10-10 17:19 kre Note Added: 0006527 2023-10-11 08:04 geoffclare Note Added: 0006528 ======================================================================
