The patch adds support for: - Simple variables: $USER, $PWD, $HOSTNAME - Braced variables: ${USER}, ${HOME} - Special parameters: $$, $?, $! - Positional parameters: $0, $1, etc. Tested via some shell scripts. The tests in tests/ weren't interactive and PS1 requires it. Please advice if some test cases are needed and how to add them. Note: This implements parameter expansion only. Command substitution $(cmd) is not yet supported and would require additional work. Attachment below. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
