Let's see: $ zsh -n /usr/share/zsh/functions/Misc/sticky-note; echo $? 1 >From #debian-devel: [10:25] <Atomo64> Clint: do you know why zsh -n sometimes exits with a status code of 1 without echoing anything?

[10:30] <Clint> Atomo64: probably #175467 [10:36] <Atomo64> Clint: but that doesn't clearly explains why there's no output while the status code states that there was a problem [10:43] <Clint> Atomo64: probably one of the math expressions is returning false; what output would you expect from that? ..
