Hello List It's your favourite posix shell lover here, asking for your honest opinions.
array="1.2.3.4 netmask 5.6.7.8; \* 'host.name' netmask 1.2.3.4 -I 'option; $FOO with spaces' " array=("1.2.3.4 netmask 5.6.7.8;" "\*" "'host.name' netmask 1.2.3.4" "-I 'option; $FOO with spaces'" ) array="'1.2.3.4 netmask 5.6.7.8;' \ '\*' \ \"'host.name' netmask 1.2.3.4\" \ \"-I 'option; $FOO with spaces'\" " The first and last are of course posix constructs whilst the middle is bash. The bash one is purely there for reference, and of course you can still use it if /bin/sh is bash. The last one is what baselayout-2 currently uses and I'm wondering if we should switch to the first one before we come out of package.mask. I'm asking which you think are the most readable of the first and last ones and if you see any issues with either. Thanks Roy -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
