Hi, The sample command:
$ echo `ls -d /home/*"` works in ksh-20100621 but fails in ksh-20120801 >From what I could read in src/cmd/ksh93/sh/lex.c it apparently attempts to "fix" the command by adding the missing character, that is, attempt to execute it as: $ echo `ls -d /home/*""` but with ksh-20120801 it fails like this: $ echo `ls -d /home/*"` ls: cannot access /home/* : No such file or directory This looks like a minor issue, that usually would only happen due to an user typo, but the ---8<--- : No such file or directory ---8<--- does not look like something to ignore.
