Subject: Array expansion interacts with brace expansion in the wrong order
Date: Thu, 13 Jul 2017 18:45:09 -0400 (EDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.2.10.1707131831290.28302@mass-toolpike.mit.edu> (raw)
Given a=(1 2 3), I would expect {$^a,4,5,6} to expand to 1 2 3 4 5 6, but
it doesn’t. Instead the 4 5 6 is duplicated for every element of $^a:
% echo $ZSH_PATCHLEVEL
zsh-5.3.1-240-ga3b3f0057
% echo {{1,2,3},4,5,6}
1 2 3 4 5 6
% a=(1 2 3)
% echo {$^a,4,5,6}
1 4 5 6 2 4 5 6 3 4 5 6
