Package: zsh
Version: 4.3.6-1
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

On a french keyboard, '|' is typed by using alt-gr, and the non-breaking
space is often typed by using alt-gr space. That often leads to this:

€ echo a | grep a
zsh: command not found:  grep

Because zsh looks for a " grep" command, with leading non-breaking space
because my thumb remained a bit too long on the alt-gr key.

This doesn't happen with bash, because bash treats non-breaking space as
a word separator.  Could zsh do the same? (currently, I have defined
alias  grep=grep
alias  vi=vi
...)

thanks

For the reasons outlined in the bug report, defaulting to
inclusion of NBSP in $IFS does more harm than good.

As it's trivial for OP to work around this issue (he
probably has, already), everyone should be happy.

This now includes Clint and me, as one more bug
is closed :)
