    It isn't defined in posix. Some bsd:s did split but doesn't anymore, other (which?) does still split. macOS does, linux doesn't. Sun probably did.

    TIL. Thanks! Gonna do wonders when working at places where I can't use a hardware key with physical confirmation of use. My assessment still stands. Use proxyjump (-J) instead of p…

    I am at loss here. As per my prior comment directed at you, you have been reminded that the improvement you asked for had been implemented into law. As per the same comment, the si…

    I was really hoping the next sudo replacement would borrow heavily on root as role[0] (if not being root as role). Feels like a missed opportunity to not use capabilities. [0]: htt…

    It seems to be very source-able in both bash and zsh. If you just executed it, it will run in bash. They seem to have gone through some effort for this to be true.
