Well maybe we're talking about the same: $* expands to a single word separated by the first character of the IFS variable while $@ expands to separate words. Did you see any problems with the way it's done at the moment? I vaguely remember using $@ at first but --debbuildops expecting a single word. So I'd rather keep the existing syntax (except you have a case where that fails). Cheers, -- Guido
