Before this commit, the command word was highlighted as "unknown-token"
not because alias loops are invalid, as a comment incorrectly claimed,
but because the command word «a» resolved to a «b» that was ineligible
for being expanded as an alias, and there was no function/builtin/etc.
called "b".
Add a function "b" to demonstrate that alias loops are valid. I've also
filed issue #695 about the overloading of "unknown-token".
Fixes#501.
Fixes#616 (the original form; not the form in
test-data/alias-comment1.zsh which is now considered o be #677 (see
previous commit for details)).
Fixes a latent bug in test-data/always2.zsh.
No user-visible effect, and therefore, no changelog entry.
In «a="b=c"; $a», the '=' sign in the expansion of $a is not active.
Therefore, prevent the expansion of $a from being considered an
assignment. Update test expectations accordingly.
Before the parent commit, they behaved as follows:
ZSH_PATCHLEVEL=debian/5.7.1-1
# parameter-value-contains-command-position1
1..2
ok 1 - [1,7] «$foobar» - # TODO "issue #670"
not ok 2 - have 1 expectations and 6 region_highlight entries: «expected_region_highlight=( '1 7 assign "issue ♯670"' )» «region_highlight=( '0 7 assign' '2 7 default' '2 7 command-substitution-unquoted'
zsh-syntax-highlighting: BUG: _zsh_highlight_highlighter_main_paint: start(2) >= end(2)
Bail out! On './highlighters/main/test-data/parameter-value-contains-command-position2.zsh': output on stderr
# parameter-value-contains-command-position2
1..2
ok 1 - [1,2] «$y» - # TODO "issue #670"
ok 2 - cardinality check
Due to the the "BUG:" and "Bail out!" on the first one, they could not
be added as XFAIL tests before the parent commit.
We cannot now for sure whether the flag is misspelled or simply unknown to us,
so err on the side of caution. This fixes an unreleased regression. Fixes#658.
Issue #641 was originally filed about this problem, but is left open to track
further enhancements.
$last_alias isn't needed; there's no reason to treat loops of length 2
(alias a=b b=a) differently to loops of length 1 (alias a=a), length 3
(alias a=b b=c c=a), or length N.
The «(( $+seen_alias[$arg] ))» check is redundant as of the last commit:
the enclosing condition ensures that $res is "alias", which implies that
«(( $+seen_alias[$arg] ))» is false.
occurred on zsh-5.0.7 and older but I don't have zsh-5.0.7 handy to test
on.)
Evidently, the issue was due to elision.
This addresses #665.0 and #665.5.
