Subject: infinite loop with aliases
Date: Fri, 29 Nov 1996 21:46:51 +0000 (GMT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <10256.199611292146@stone.dcs.warwick.ac.uk> (raw)
% foo<
zsh: parse error near `\n'
% alias foo='a=b foo'
% foo<
zsh goes into an infinite loop and can't be interrupted. It seems to
be looping in the lexer or the parser; I'm not familiar with that code
so I can't easily diagnose it.
One other oddity:
% zsh -fc 'foo<'
zsh: parse error near `<'
% zsh -f
% foo<
zsh: parse error near `\n'
Why the difference in error messages?
