I thought we touched upon this also in discussing adding $'...', with the
resolution the arguments were WORDs in the grammatical sense and to be
scanned that way with regards to quoting. This would supercede that clause in

Hi,
this is a question to Geoff Clare
I would like to get a confirmation on how this expression:
"${xxx-"a b c"}"
is to be understood. In special, is
"${xxx-" a quoted partial string

"a b c" a quoted partial string
Note that only ksh93 expands this to thr
10 matches
