Thanks Corona688, I had already tried that and found that it would not work because eval attempts to
execute the string, but the string is not a command, just a bunch of dash options, e.g.:
script: line 4: eval: -a: invalid option
eval: usage: eval [arg ...]
However you did give me an idea which does work (and I think does not have security issues)...
opts="$(eval echo $opts) $*"
So thanks again!
