Which is *not* the same, not the same syntax, not obvious or
intuitive, and if it's a Bash-ism may not work in Zsh or Tcsh or Csh
or Sh or whatever. I don't only use Linux.

No. This is _why_ I do not particularly like _any_ *nix shell.

I don't really want to restart the argument. I've been online since
1985 and using *nix since 1988. I've had this argument _so many times_
in so many places. Not again.
