Subject: [9fans] simple rc problem in p9p (on OpenBSD)
Date: Thu, 26 Apr 2018 16:45:32 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAOEdRO35rOrixKjZiggGFAakA341qYbRZwWODFhre1yreq_kfg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello

I, using OpenBSD's p9p, see this

% w='A
    B
    C'
% echo $w
A
B
C
% for(i in $w) {echo $i; echo XXX}
A
B
C
XXX

ie, w in for is taken as just one argument instead of
3. What can I do with it?

I haven't modified ifs (it should be \n space and tab).
(How can I check, say see the character codes?)

Thanks for comments
Ruda
