Except posix/bash's "$@" syntax (which I think is equivalent to $argv in fish). And it's rather a hack, because ",,,,,$@,,,,,," does *something* but it's hardly useful -- in practice it's more like "$@" is just a special four-character piece of syntax to mean "expand to the arguments as separate words, without splitting them on spaces (via IFS)". -Isaac ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
