I think my example was unclear (Sorry). Basically, I wanted an
output that looks like,
David
Matt
Bob[return]Sara[return]Tim
I can get it with,
foo=$( printf '%s\n' David Matt ${(j:[return]:)usernames} )
with the 'globsubst' option turned off. However, I was trying to
incorporate your tip, because I wanted to keep that option turned on.
foo=$( printf '%s\n' David Matt ${(j:[return]:)~~usernames} )
gives me no output (with the 'nullglob' option set).
Thanks.
