Well, Geoff Clare did say the existing wording is broken in any case. If the goal is compatibility with pre-existing practice (in this case, ksh88) and the majority of other shells which follow it, then the exact wording is irrelevant anyway. > But, well, POSIX was never among the more useful standards… Since you seem to despise it with such a passion, I honestly wonder why you haven't simply ripped out POSIX compatibility mode a long time ago. Are there compelling reasons why you have to keep bothering with it? - M.
