Why does eval "" clear $? when a normal newline doesn't, and it's passed into and out of eval otherwise? $ false $ eval "" $ echo $? 0 $ false $ $ echo $? 1 $ false; eval 'echo $?' 1 $ eval 'false'; echo $? 1 $ if ; then echo hello; fi bash: syntax error near unexpected token `;' $ if > then echo hello; fi bash: syntax error near unexpected token `then' What's the logic here? Probably related to: $ if $NONE; then echo hello; fi hello Rob _______________________________________________ Toybox mailing list Toybox@lists.landley.net http://lists.landley.net/listinfo.cgi/toybox-landley.net
