Subject: Caveats of setopt magic_equal_subst
Date: Fri, 4 Jun 2010 15:49:49 -0400 (EDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LNX.2.01.1006041541370.5029@hp.internal> (raw)

As with so many things Zsh-related, I just discovered that something I'd 
kind of wanted for a while was a built-in option: magic_equal_subst

I was just wondering if there were commonly-occurring situations where 
magic_equal_subst might bite me.  It seems like the benefits will 
outweigh having to workaround such situations, but I was just hoping to 
get a group opinion or warning if I'm being optimistic.

My main reason for switching it on is that I use a lot of named 
directories, and I'd like to be able to use them where command options 
are of the form --some-option=~some/filename

-- 
Best,
Ben
