Sure, that's fine as advice. Fwiw, it's different for different distros. Declarations that using posix-compliant continuations is "highly unusual abuse of POSIX shell semantics" is a different matter. Changing/breaking behavior in managing valid/working grub configs, and rationalizing it by "I do not see a need to support it" is ... unhelpful. Particularly if Grub project/devs say that its usage *is* OK & compliant. Which is why I asked _here_; and, iiuc, seems that it *is*. Grub's stability, reproducibility and portability are critical. It all works great, particularly when the excellent docs are followed. Happy to take ongoing conversation to the bug. _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
