Hi! I am trying to create a macro in zsh using global aliases:

```
alias -g MAGIC=3D')"'
function m_doc() {
    print -r -- "! { [[ ${(q+)1} =3D=3D '-h' ]] || [[ ${(q+)1} =3D=3D =
'--help' ]] } || {
        print -r -- \"Help for $2:
$@[3,-1]\=E2=80=9D ; return 0 }"
}
alias mdoc=3D'eval "$(m_doc "$*" "$0" '

## Testing it

mdoc_test() {
    mdoc Usage: Some documentation here. MAGIC
    echo =E2=80=9CYou shouldn=E2=80=99t see this if using the help =
flags"
}

## Running this:
#$ mdoc_test -h
#mdoc_test:1: parse error near `)'
#mdoc_test:1: parse error in command substitution

mdoc_test2() {
    eval "$(m_doc "$*" "$0" Usage: Some documentation here.)"
    ec "$*"
}
## Running this:
#$ mdoc_test2 -h                                                         =
                                         1
#Help for mdoc_test2:
#Usage: Some documentation here.

mdoc_test3() {
    eval "$(m_doc "$*" "$0" Usage: Some documentation here. MAGIC
    ec "$*"
}
## Running this:
#$ mdoc_test3 -h
#mdoc_test3:1: parse error near `)'
#mdoc_test3:1: parse error in command substitution

```

It seems to me that this is a bug?=
