Concept: Commands and Arguments #699
Conversation
|
Thank you for the details comments. I'll process them anon. Taking a step back, are there any topics in there that don't need to be in the first concept document? Is it too wordy, too detailed? |
I think you did a good job here. It's a bit wordy for my tastes, but I also prefer reading terse We could ask for a volunteer with less bash experience to do a read through of the contents once the PR is ready (or after the syllabus is coming together but before a release) to give us an "outsider" perspective. |

Reading it over, I'm thinking the whole Strings section can be removed. I'd like to trim down the paragraphs above Strings, but quoting is super important. |
Removed "strings" section. Removed "review" section in the middle of the document. Removed note about Windows editors and line endings. Trimmed some of the fat. Lowercased "bash" except at start of sentences.

@glennj is this still in Draft? Or rather, it is, but should it be? |
|
Right, getting close. |
| $ [ -f file ] | ||

| (We see a lot of people who are confused by this behavior; they think that they can omit the whitespace between `[` and its arguments, so we need to present this particular example early.) |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Note, Wooledge is a Wiki. Anything we copy/paste then change, that change can also be applied upstream.
