Message-id: <98aa0638-97ed-dfe0-8dd2-39129d02c084@eastlink.ca> Date: Thu, 15 Mar 2018 10:51:47 -0700 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/52.6.0 Content-language: en-CA If a function calls an alias, if the alias changes, the function must be resourced, yes?  That makes nothing but sense sincethe alias is what it is at sourcing.  An executed script uses the alias in 'real time'.  But, is there a way to make a function also use the real time value of an alias? BTW, $IFS now under control, thanks all.
