When a variable value is read, empty or null values, "on" (case-insensitive), and "1" are equivalent to On. All other values are equivalent to Off. Anyways... One thing (other than <(command)) that makes me like bash more than ksh is that in ksh you can only rebind the keys in the emacs mode, you cannot rebind keys in the vi mode, while in bash you can rebind in both modes. Line editing in bash is much more involved. That makes me think that shells should not be interactive, instead we should use a wrapper like rlwrap that does the interactive job of line editing and completion, leaving the command parsing and execution job for the shell itself. Thus, you could reuse the shell wrapper in other shells/prompts like debuggers and interpreters, and have a uniform interface for every shell. You could for example, use sh, plan9's rc and a lisp interpreter all with the same line editing keybindings. |
