Changes from 5.1.1 to 5.2 ------------------------- The new module zsh/param/private can be loaded to allow the shell to define parameters that are private to a function scope (i.e. are not propagated to nested functions called within this function). The parameter flag ${(P)...} is now more useful when it appears in a nested expansion. For example, typeset -A assoc=(one un two deux three trois) name=assoc print ${${(P)name}[one]} now prints "un". In previous versions of the shell the value of the substitution was fully expanded on return from ${(P)name}, making associative array subscripting difficult. As a side effect, flags for formatting appearing in the inner substitution now affect the substitution of the name (into "assoc" in this case), which is not normally useful: flags that should apply to the value must be in the outer substitution. The GLOB_STAR_SHORT option allows the pattern **/* to be shortened to just ** if no / follows. so **.c searches recursively for a file whose name has the suffix ".c". The effect of the WARN_CREATE_GLOBAL option has been significantly extended, so expect it to cause additional warning messages about parameters created globally within function scope.
I bumped it.
