No incompatibilities with previous versions are known. - -Visible changes in the shell and its modules since 4.3.5 include the -following: - -The parameter subscripting flag "e", which existed but had limited -usefulness, has been extended to allow reverse matching of strings instead -of patterns. For example, "${array[(ie)*]}" substitutes the index of the -array element that contains the exact string "*". In previous versions of -the shell a fairly hairy process was necessary to ensure pattern characters -were quoted. - -The cd, chdir, pushd and popd builtins now take the option -q (quiet) which -avoids side effects when changing directories, suppressing the effect of -the chpwd function, the chpwd_functions array and printing of the directory -stack. The last was already possible with the option PUSHD_SILENT, but in -previous versions of the shell there was no easy way of suppressing the -other side effects. |
