You might want to send this to bug-bash@gnu.org to see if this is a bug or intended behavior. Is it a regression, or has bash always done this? Reported to bug-bash@gnu.org. Discussion is here: http://groups.google.co.nz/groups?as_ugroup=gnu.bash.bug&as_usubject=backslash-bang After a great deal of dodging and ducking, it now seems his position is "broken as designed". OK, it appears this behaviour is documented in section 3.1.2.3 of the bash reference http://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bashref.html |
