On line 3987 of bash.1 (here:

`The\fBextglob\fP` is missing a space between 'The' and 'extglob'.

Hi!
I believe the Bash Reference Manual is missing a key note for using "set
-o".
On the man page for "bash"
(https://tiswww.case.edu/php/chet/bash/bash.html), the following line is
present
* If *-o* is supplied with no /option-name/, the values of the current
options are printed. If *

long running bash processes that naturally spawn many sub-shells over their
life, and can gradually slow down.
First set ulimit -u 3 (this is used by bash to determine the size of bgpids)

While compiling Bash, I couldn't help but notice that all over GNU's website it
is spelled with a capital B. However, when I tried to compile Bash, I noticed a
message that said "GNU bash, version 4.3.30(1)-release (i686-pc-linux-gnu)" in
a box surrounded by stars. Why is the B not capitalized h
ld probably be more clear.
No need to return a pointer to a static empty string.

Thanks for the clarification. I had not seen that e-mail and was
expecting the parse.y changes would result in y.tab.c being regenerated
in the build.I have since run across a system with an earlier
version of Bison that cannot handle the latest parse.y.
Thanks again.

I am curious; why does Bash 4-3 patch 28 contain patches for y.tab.c.
Is this really what was intended.

So far the Bash source code is a somewhat abstruse to me so I thought I'd ask
for a little help.
Thanks in advance.
