Jilles Tjoelker dixit: > echo "`\"pwd\"`"
This is the one I am talking about; the other three are the same currently. >What's more, the Bourne shell and ksh93 sometimes require \", for >example in > echo "`echo \"a b c\"` pwd" Fun, this shows a difference. I get a b c pwd in regular mode and "a b c" pwd in POSIX mode. >If the backslashes are omitted, the command is parsed as > echo "`echo `"a b c"` pwd`" Ouch. But IIRC that’s UB anyway. I get a b c pwd in both modes for that, in mksh. In the end, we’re no further than before – we know that my and the yash developers’ reading of the standard conflicts with historic practice, Bourne shell and, apparently, ksh93, just we have an(other) example now. But thanks for the detail information anyway.
