[KEYWORD?] end()

[KEYWORD?] end()

Hello Fellow ZSH users,

I'm just having an issue defining a simple end() function,
zsh throws a parsing error... which doesn't come up when
renaming the function name e.g End.

Any idea on this?

Googled quickly this to no avail and now I am looking for
any special treatment of 'end' keyword in zshmisc(1).
Other man pages may follow.

Thanks.

You're looking in the right place, the information's in there if you
look far enough.

"end" is used by csh-style syntax, which isn't really recommended any
more.

You can disable the keyword:

  disable -r end

('r' for reserved word) without any further problems.
