I strongly suggest zsh.
Among other advantages, it will not re-expand and re-split variables,
even without quotes, and it has a powerful globbing mechanism, with
recursive search and filters on files properties (size, ownership,

Thank you. But hpaio and saned are two different protocols, and
apparently SANE lacks a cross-protocol config
'&' unshifted and '1'
shifted. To handle that, you would have to find an unused key code, and
then use loadkeys table to map it.
Hope this helps somebody.
