I've fixed the problem, and the fix will be in the next release.

Thank you, Chet!

superfluous blank in the ${rest: -1} expression

Bernd, this blank makes a big difference:
${rest: -1} last character of $rest
${rest:-1} $rest or 1 if $rest is empty


You're right, of course. Sigh. Fortunately I've not yet fallen into that 
pithole...
