Clearly it has already been sent to the bash maintainers - if they |
| 14 |
reject it, I can see no sensible reason why gentoo should create a |
| 15 |
non-standard (from the user perspective) bash for their system. |
| 16 |
If they accept it, then all well and good (and it most certainly |
| 17 |
wouldn't be the default behaviour). |

*If* the patch was ever added just to gentoo, the functionality should |
| 20 |
only ever be enabled for interactive shells - scripts, in my view, |
| 21 |
need to be portable. Making a non-standard command line is one thing, |
| 22 |
making a non-standard scripting language is quite another... |

Erm, yes. I find typing many commands addictive. Sometimes I sit in |
| 27 |
front of a keyboard typing "ls" hundreds of time just for the buzz it |
| 28 |
gives me. |
