I am unable to make sense of the bash man-page description of the
extquote shopt option.
It says:
extquote
If set, $’string’ and $"string" quoting is performed within
${parameter} expansions enclosed in double quotes. This option
is enabled by default.
Can anybody come up with an example where the setting of extquote
makes a difference? I would actually like to have two examples,
one with $'string' and one with $"string".
