src/bin/sh: parser.c sh.1 shell.h var.c
Log Message:
More standard (and saner) implementation of the ! reserved word.
Unless the shell is compiled with the (compilation time) option
BOGUS_NOT_COMMAND (as in CFLAGS+=-DBOGUS_NOT_COMMAND) which it
will not normally be, the ! command (reserved word) will only
be permitted at the start of a pipeline (which includes the
degenerate pipeline with no '|'s in it of course - ie: a simple cmd)
and not in the middle of a pipeline sequence (no "cmd | ! cmd" nonsense.)
If the latter is really required, then "cmd | { ! cmd; }" works as
a standard equivalent.
In POSIX mode, permit only one ! ("! pipeline" is ok. "! ! pipeline" is not).
Again, if needed (and POSIX conformance is wanted) "! { ! pipeline; }"
works as an alternative - and is safer, some shells treat "! ! cmd" as
being identical to "cmd" (this one did until recently.)
