The following: % : ` bquote> cat > foo << eof bquote> a bquote> eof bquote> ` > <-- !!! runs perfectly on my /bin/sh (and should according to POSIX :)) but not under zsh. (Including last three patches to heredoc an $(< ...) fix). It wants something after the last backtick. The same problem with $() form. If the heredoc delimiter is quoted, it is O.K. % : ` bquote> cat > foo << \eof bquote> a bquote> eof bquote> ` % Again in `` or $() form. The example is probably perverse; so it just FYI greetings ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrej Borsenkow Fax: +7 (095) 252 01 05 SNI ITS Moscow Tel: +7 (095) 252 13 88 NERV: borsenkow.msk E-Mail: borsenkow.msk@sni.de -------------------------------------------------------------------------
