Subject: quoting bug
Date: Fri, 21 Jun 1996 15:17:02 +0200 (METDST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <199606211317.PAA02258@krait.es.ele.tue.nl> (raw)


zsh fails to break up strings properly where other shells do the right thing.

This happens with beta21 and all previous versions I have.

Best Regards,
-Raymond
