} The named directory ~out was defined, but it has disappeared:
}
} greux:~> echo ~out
} zsh: no such user or named directory: out
bug () {
hash -d out=$HOME
echo ~out
local out
out=(oops)
( echo ~out )
: Without the subshell above, this line is never reached
}
The local variable "out" is used by _pids, so that named directory will be
stomped whenever you complete process IDs.
On the other hand, if you actually set the global variable "out":
unbug () {
out=$HOME
bug
echo ~out
}
The named directory still gets stomped, but is automatically restored any
time you refer to it.
