Sorry, my earlier description was a bit unclear—my apologies.
I accidentally left out the ‘$’ before INT_MAX when copying it over, but I did
include the ‘$’ in my actual testing.
As for `IGNOREEOF=127`, I expected it to let me press C-d over a hundred times
without exiting bash, and in my testin
```
INT_MAX=`echo \`printf '%u' -1\`/2 | bc`
IGNOREEOF=INT_MAX
# Then I typed C-d, bash exited...
```
```
IGNOREEOF=127
# C-d, C-d, C-d, ...
```
Why doesn’t the first piece of code work as expected?
In Bash, what exactly is the INT_MAX that I can safely use anywhere?

type:
IGNOREEOF=INT_MAX
should be
IGNOREEOF=$INT_MAX
(Doesn't impact the conclusion.)

I don't know. I usually use Emacs, so I'm only familiar with Emacs.
For Emacs, yes, and I've already submitted a patch to address this
issue to the Emacs mailing list. But clearly, not all editors are
as highly custo

- When Emacs opens a file named "bash-fc.NN.bash",
it'll enable sh-mode automatically, and even start
a LSP server for Bash if configured properly.
- VS Code behaves similarly.
If you've never used a code editor with automatic syntax
highlighting, give them a try.
`fc` will create a temporary file named something
like "bash-fc.Esf9by", which seldom benefits from
editors that use *suffixes* to infer what syntax
highlighting should be enabled.
(This improvement may not only apply to `fc`.)

Can anyone give me a practical example? Thanks in advance!

This doesn't make much sense unless every other program
is built the same way. (A stark counterexample is Emacs.)
IOW, that wouldn't increase the "build toolset" much
because there probably be
king it much harder for
future maintainers to understand and manage the repository.
