Subject: "zstyle -L" doesn't quote properly
Date: Wed, 7 Apr 2021 09:42:12 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAH+w=7bNbz97RzMQNyAVjgzVtSQotwwfSFNb1c2p7-0vPFjMuQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
This occurs as a result of a typo when defining the style (the word
"menu" is misplaced after a copy/paste/edit) but produces garbage
output. I think the assumption is that in the syntax ...
zstyle [ -e | - | -- ] PATTERN STYLE STRING ...
... the STYLE must be a simple word and therefore doesn't need
quoting, but in fact the command will accept any sort of string in
that position.
% zstyle -e ':completion::*:default' '[[ $WIDGET =
(|reverse-)menu-complete ]] && reply=(menu yes select interactive)'
% zstyle -L
zstyle -e ':completion::*:default' [[ $WIDGET =
(|reverse-)menu-complete ]] && reply=(menu yes select interactive)
