The following issue has been SUBMITTED. ====================================================================== https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1714 ====================================================================== Reported By: rillig Assigned To: ====================================================================== Project: Issue 8 drafts Issue ID: 1714 Category: Shell and Utilities Type: Clarification Requested Severity: Editorial Priority: normal Status: New Name: Roland Illig Organization: User Reference: Section: make Page Number: 3114 Line Number: 104939, 104946 Final Accepted Text: ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 2023-05-07 14:22 UTC Last Modified: 2023-05-07 14:22 UTC ====================================================================== Summary: Use consistent wording for splitting a macro value into fields/words Description: The lines 104939 try to say the same but use different words for it:
Line 104939 says: > where a word, in this context, is defined to be a string delimited by the beginning of the line, a <blank>, or a <newline> (This definition wrongly assumes that macro values are still related to the lines they originate from.) Line 104946 says: > each white-space-separated word Desired Action: In line 104939, replace the complicated definition with the simpler 'each white-space-separated word', with no intended change in meaning. ====================================================================== Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 2023-05-07 14:22 rillig New Issue 2023-05-07 14:22 rillig Name => Roland Illig 2023-05-07 14:22 rillig Section => make 2023-05-07 14:22 rillig Page Number => 3114 2023-05-07 14:22 rillig Line Number => 104939, 104946 ======================================================================
