Message-ID: <8909271448.AA28013@abel.math.uiuc.edu> Date: 27 Sep 89 14:48:48 GMT Sender: daemon@tut.cis.ohio-state.edu Distribution: gnu Organization: GNUs Not Usenet Lines: 16 There is one bug report which I submitted which is still outstanding: ${1+"$@"} is not expanded correctly if there is a word with a space in it. also, the following command works in other shells but not in bash sed 's/ */\ /g' oldfile The \-newline pair dissapears. (In csh, using \\-newline works.) my apologies to the list readers if these have already been fixed. Thank you again to bfox, for the neat shell. skl.
