---------------------------------------------------------------------- (0006532) kre (reporter) - 2023-10-12 18:54 https://www.austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1778#c6532 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- One more thing, in https://www.austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1778#c6510, I ended with the following paragraph: While I'm here, the current text also doesn't say what to do if there's an error making one of those assignments - certainly read exits with a status > 1 in that case, that's clear, but is read expected to go ahead and assign to the other variables, or may it abort processing as soon as the error is detected? That's unstated as well as best I can tell. As a hint: not all shells do the same thing here, there are actually 3 different behaviours I have detected. Further not all shells do the >1 exit status either, some exit 1 in this case (for some the shell (or subshell) exits (treating this as a variable assignment error and doing as specified by table 2.8.1 I presume). As best I can see, the proposed resolution in https://www.austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1778#c6526 does not address this issue. We should be fixing this one as well.
