Subject: Empty array and parameter expansion
Date: Wed, 10 Jun 1998 15:26:10 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <19980610152610.A29619@ens-lyon.fr> (raw)

I don't understand the following behavior (with zsh 3.0.5):

% i=test
% a=()
% a=($a $i)
% echo $a
$i

I would have thought that "test" would be printed.
Is it a bug or a strange feature?
