So how exactly do you describe the bug? Using 'echo \c' inside a command substitution corrupts state until the next command substitution echo? When this bug is detected, is it better to just try an alternate means for printing text without a newline, such as printf, rather than trying to audit all uses of echo \c? - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
