So it looks like this function splits on spaces but doesn't provide any escaping mechanism. Is there any case in which we want to accept environment variables containing whitespace? I ask this as someone that has EDITOR set to "gvim -f" on occasion and seeing how tools sometimes handle that poorly. Even without that, I think this series is probably an improvement over the status quo. -- brian m. carlson / brian with sandals: Houston, Texas, US +1 832 623 2791 | https://www.crustytoothpaste.net/~bmc | My opinion only OpenPGP: https://keybase.io/bk2204
