In Debian bug #713805, you wrote: > [dot ignores parameters after the script pathname]
POSIX does not specify what happens if dot is given more than one parameter, and dash simply ignores the excess. I think it is unlikely that dash will add the extension of temporarily setting the excess (if not empty) as the positional parameters. You can set the positional parameters using 'set -- <parameters>' before sourcing the script, or you can create a function that sources the script and gets passed the desired parameters. -- Jilles Tjoelker -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
