Subject: zargs: Argument list too long
Date: Fri, 1 Mar 2019 13:56:16 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190301185616.ldsvccgtilfapyb2@andrew.cmu.edu> (raw)

Hi All,

When I do

    zargs -n 1 -- arg1 arg2 arg3 -- echo

it works fine. But if I do 

    zargs -n 1 -- arg1 arg2 arg3 -- echo Argument:

I get an unfriendly error message

    zargs: argument list too long

I thought I should have gotten:

    Argument: arg1
    Argument: arg2
    Argument: arg3

instead. Did I miss something?

Thanks,

GI
