Hi zsh developers,
I recently stumbled across a problem with compatibility:
https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bashref.html#index-case
Bash allows ;& in switch-case statements as a fall-through, for which zsh
has ;| . It would be great, if zsh could adapt to (also?) support ;& .
More details about this problem can be found here:
http://wiki.bash-hackers.org/syntax/ccmd/case#portability_considerations
Have a good day
Sebastian
