Bug description: probs displaying backslash with HERE statements
hi there,
this may be obscure and I'm not sure if it is a bug but I've experienced a problem
with populating a variable with a HERE statement (ie. $variable = <<< EOD). As far as
I was aware the variable is supposed to be populated with anything after the first EOD
line and before the ending EOD; line.
This HERE statement does not work if you put a slash before a left curly brace ( \{ )
. It's fine with a right curly brace ( \} ). looking at the script below version 1
does not display the first slash, version 2 does (only because I escaped the slash
first).
This seems to be a bug, so I hope this is the right place to inform you about it.
best wishes
Simon R Jones
