I mean, the bash man page is very clear on the grammar for 'name' (the token-class in question), and it does not admit '-'. Maybe see if there's a bash bug or FAQ from that angle?

Even if it works, it only works accidentally, and is bad form. -- ...jsled http://asynchronous.org/ - a=jsled; b=asynchronous.org; echo $...@${b}
