Command substitution without '$'? I must be missing something and
would
appreciate a pointer.
As David pointed out (as a pointer), the <(...) is a bashism for
"pretend this is
a file name whose content is provided by the enclosed command's
output".
Perhaps more readable in the symmetrical variant
diff -u <(ls dir1) <(ls dir2)
Very handy.
does not the excellent guide also say not to try to do anything with the
output of "ls" ?
