That said, bash is within its rights to add, as an extension to the standard, the use of any valid letter within the current locale. But someone would have to write a patch to do that, and make sure that such a patch doesn't adversely affect speed, and that such identifiers don't break when you switch to another locale where the same byte pattern is no longer composed of valid letters. -- Eric Blake ebl...@redhat.com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
