Hi, The attached testscript has a leading double byte space separator before the for loop closing "done" keyword. This fails with a syntax error while parsing.
Is it a bug or is it expected behaviour?
I've tried it with ksh93u+ and ksh93v- versions on a Solaris setup.
bash and zsh also fails, hence I'm thinking it might not be a bug, but
could someone please confirm this.
Here's a sample output.
root@S11_3_SRU:~# echo $LANG
ja_JP.UTF-8
root@S11_3_SRU:~# cat space.ksh
#!/bin/ksh
for i in 1 2
do
echo $i
done # leading double byte space character
