Greetings,

I have a function:

dumpall () {
                if [ $# -eq 0 ]
                then
                                echo "dumpall: Usage 'dumpall {files}'"
                else
                                for FILENAME in $*
                                do
                                                if [ ! -e ${FILENAME} ]
                                                then
                                                                echo "dumpall: ${FILENAME} does not exist"
                                                else
                                                                echo -e "\033[31m:::::::: ${FILENAME} ::::::::\033[0m"
                                                                dumpit ${FILENAME}
                                                fi
                                done
                fi
}

Which calls an alias:

alias dumpit='hexdump -C -n 128'

It works fine in bash, but with zsh now I get:

:::::::: test.txt ::::::::
dumpall:11: command not found: dumpit

Am I doing something wrong???

TIA, will summarise
