Sorry to butt in but doesn't this sound a bit rude to anyone ?
As in
echo {0..12}
Does what is expected
echo {a..z}
Does nothing as expected
setopt braceccl
echo {a-z}
does something somebody expected ?
Shouldn't there be some kind of uniformity or is this for a reason ?
The other two shells work as expected.
Thanks in advance,
Jerry
