Subject: smart input
Date: Tue, 27 Mar 2018 16:32:15 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4ced3cdc-d77d-fe48-0bbd-980219ab55dc@eastlink.ca> (raw)
I have a function that takes input from a file like so:
input=( ${(f)"$(<$@)"} ) # Read the contents of file
I know how to modify that to accept input from an array, but would it be
possible to make it smart? That is, to accept input from either a file
or an array as the case may be? I have some ideas like: " [ -e ... ] "
to test if the argument is infact a filename, but is there some elegant
method?
