https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=46441 --- Comment #12 from Jilles Tjoelker <jilles@FreeBSD.org> --- For PS4, I implemented this in 2011. The problem with unbounded recursion from command substitutions is avoided by not allowing command substitutions; this error (like other parse and expansion errors in PS4) is handled by writing an error message and continuing with the unexpanded value. For PS1 and PS2, there are two additional problems: * how does $... expansion interact with the existing \u, \w, \$, etc. * because PS2 is needed during the middle of a parse, more work may be needed to prevent the two parse operations from interfering with each other -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
