Hi!
----
The following example uses the copy operator to copy a whole compound
variable via it's name:
-- snip --
$ ~/bin/ksh -u -c 'compound b=( x=9 ) ; compound a ; a=b ; print -v
a'
(
x=9
)
-- snip --
... but if I replace "a=b" with "a=bx" (where variable "bx" does not
exist) I am getting this:
-- snip --
$ ~/bin/ksh -u -c 'compound b=( x=9 ) ; compound a ; a=bx ; print -v
a'
bx
-- snip --
... somehow I would expect that this would've trigged an "variable not
set" error...
----
Bye,
Roland
