Is there a reason that ksh93 (ast-ksh.2008-02-02) obmits empty arrays in
the compound variable view ?
For example the following script...
-- snip --
typeset filename="foo/bar"
typeset scan=(
typeset -A records
)
Apparently "typeset x" just assigns an attribute to the name "x", but
doesn't define the variable itself. The documentation isn't too clear
about this, however.
Another example:
x=(a=''); print $x # prints: ( a='' )
x=(typeset b); print $x # still prints: ( a='' )
x=(); print $x # still prints: ( a='' )
Don't know if this is intended, but to me the last 2 lines look somewhat
strange.
