That's too much to read and Perl is not a good example to follow. Why not
extend the arithmetic expansion syntax to allow generating multiple results
when subscripting indexed arrays? Like `${a[1; 2; 4]}', `${a[3..5; 7]}',
`${a[1..10..3

I've found some existing code that will break if words in ${BASH_SOURCE[@]}
don't match the filepath given to '.' or 'source':
[[ ${BASH_ARGV[0]} = "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}" ]]
which is part of a test to determine whether any args were provided after
"source filename".
I use this at the end of my file

This is different functionality.
Equivalent to printf '%s\n' "${array[1}" "${array[5]}". The innovation

I'm not inclined to implement this. I don't like the syntax and there are

Just to be clear, would this result in $0 and ${BASH_SOURCE[@]:(-1):1}
potentially yielding different values?
There is no reason it would alter the content of $0 which remains the
name of the command involved.

I replied to Martin D Kealey about it but looking at the email now it
seems like he's referring to something involving BASH_SOURCE_PATH
instead of BASH_SOURCE. I misinterpreted.
