I definitely reccommend against injection rejection which leaves you wide open to things you don't know about and can react badly to valid things you still didn't expect. (What if a filename contains a literal backtick?) Better to not leave the door open in the first place and use something which doesn't allow for shell interpretation.
Backquotes are harmless. In this case, the code to be eavl'ed would at worst be something like
Code:
[[ ! -d '`rm -r *`' ]]
and this wouldn't actually execute the rm, due to the surrounding single quotes. But of course, whenever I do injection rejection, it might be that I overlook some corner case. So while I believethat my solution is safe, there is always some bad feeling that I might have missed something.
I verified, that test indeed is a builtin in zsh too, so it really makes sense using it here.
Inside a zsh function, I create a local array with local -a arrayname and a local associative array with local -A arrayname.
I also can create an array using set, like this:
set -A arrayname value1 value2 value3In this form, I can not explicitly declare that an array is associative or... (2 Replies)

hi,
In bash,
$ bind -P | grep yank-last
yank-last-arg can be found on "\M-.", "\M-_".
this allows me to press ALT key and the period (.) to yank the last argument of
the previous command line into the current command line.
How can I get the same behavior in zsh ?
Thanks ... (0 Replies)
