These two statements work fine and give the same results: typeset x=(a b c) x=($(cat file)) where file contains the lines a b c But this one does _not_ work: typeset x=($(cat file)) Output: zsh: not an identifier: c) Am I missing something or is this a bug? If it's a bug, it's there at least since 3.0.2 Bernd -- Bernd Eggink Regionales Rechenzentrum der Uni Hamburg eggink@rrz.uni-hamburg.de http://www.rrz.uni-hamburg.de/eggink/BEggink.html
