Current bash version is 3.2.17(15)-release. When I read an alias file with source weird results ensue. E.g., if the alias file is
alias rm='rm -i' alias mv='mv -i'
then 'source /etc/alias' followed by 'alias' shows
'lias mv='mv -i 'lias rm='rm -i
A related problam exists with env file. E.g., after sourcing
STUFF_HOME="c:\\aa\\bb\\cc" CLASSPATH="c:\\dd\\ee;$STUFF_HOME\\ff\\gg"
$STUFF_HOME is fine but $CLASSPATH is now
\ff\ggee;c:\aa\bb\cc
alias and env assignment work fine from the command line, so this is a source issue. Does anyone have an idea of what is causing this nonsense?
