} I'm looking for an idiom that will convert the array (a b c) into
} (a "" b "" c "") so I can assign it easily to an associative array.
As it happens ...
typeset "assoc[${^array[@]}]=''"
should do that particular thing quite effectively, provided that none
of the values of $array is * or @.
} Right now I've got ugliness like this:
}
} array=(a b c)
} set -A assoc
That should be "typeset -A assoc". "set -A" means something entirely
different.
