Bart:
Your clipped comments and code:
# ${(j.|.)var} means to join an array with vertical bars; here the var
is @ for the positional parameters.
# ${~something} means the value of something can be treated as a
pattern, so the |-joined positional parameters form a pattern.
# "set --" replaces the original positional parameters with this array
of parameter names.
set -- ${(ok)parameters[(I)${_v_case}${~${(j.|.)@}}]}
... I understand everything but the '(j.|.)' -- it seems ok like this:
set -- ${(ok)parameters[(I)${_v_case}${~${@}}]}
... I see no vertical bars either before or after. The PP's print as a
spaced array either way. But you didn't but that in for no reason.
Besides, the idea of joining the array seems backwards.
