[I forgot to Cc the mailing list with this, so sorry about the
duplicate message, Bryan.]
Since the hash mark # seems to simply start a comment in fish, it needs
to be escaped in order to allow the command to use it. Otherwise your
command would end up being something like lpr -, which makes sense that
it would be unrecognized.
Is there an issue with either using lpr -\# copies or lpr "-#" copies
for your command? Either one seems to produce the same response as bash
does with lpr -# copies.
It seems from what I can tell that bash only begins a comment when the
hash mark # begins a "word", or rather, has a space/newline before it,
while fish will begin a comment with any unescaped unquoted hash.

The "lpr" command prints files. It has a "-#" option that sets the
number of copies to print.
This option is available in BASH.
But unfortunately FISH does not recognise it. So I get the "unknown
option" error message.
