Subject: var=$( typeset "$1" ) ... not within a function.
Date: Thu, 20 Oct 2022 10:21:29 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ff3edbd0-977d-b750-439f-699dc5273870@eastlink.ca> (raw)
function ii ()
{
var=$( printenv "$1" )
[ "$var" ] && var=$( typeset "$1" )
print "var is: $var "
}
$ . test; ii USER
var is:
... why won't 'typeset' work there? Funny thing is that if I run it as
a script:
$ var=$( printenv "$1" )
[ "$var" ] && var=$( typeset "$1" )
print "var is: $var "
...
var is: USER=root
... no problem. I don't even have a wild guess why this might be.
