=== *Description* ============================================================
ksh93 does not show aliases properly if there is an '=' sign in the value.
For eg:
$ alias cs="EDITOR=vim cscope -p2 -d"
$ alias cs
cs=EDITOR='vim cscope -p2 -d'
$ type cs
cs is an alias for EDITOR='vim cscope -p2 -d'
$
Note that the openning quote is not at the right place.
Its the same case with ksh as well. But ksh does not show the quotes in 'type'
command
$ type cs
cs is an alias for EDITOR=vim cscope -p2 -d
The aliases are executed properly. There is no issue there.
The only issue is with how the aliases are shown by the alias command.
This also causes issues if the output is processed by a program.
bash shows the aliases correctly.
