Can some one please explain the following warning:
ksh -n -c 'str="<hello> <world>" ; dummy="${str//~(E-g)<.*> (<.*>)}" ;
print -v .sh.match'
/bin/ksh: warning: line 1: < within ${} should be quoted
/bin/ksh: warning: line 1: > within ${} should be quoted
Why should < and > be quoted? <.*> (<.*>) look like a valid extended
regex to me and changing < to \< and > to \> changes the meaning.
