Thank you very much for your message.
I am not surprised that I have misunderstood this item. I have much to
learn.
* the shell does not print a warning message if an attempt is made to
use a quoted compound assignment as an argument to declare (declare -a
foo=’(1 2)’). Later versions warn that this usage is deprecated
I was so surprised to find the "’" character (Unicode 0x2019) here that
I assumed that it should be some other character (perhaps "'"). I have
not managed to get the warning message, so I still do not understand
this item properly.
Thank you.
David
