Ok i see when i *do* place a semicolon the problem vanishs.
Luckily i do not maintain a shell where i now would have to double
the test, because for my MUA it only works with the semicolon per
se.
(And yes, you were right with that eval, but this comes from my
MUA, and that is not the sh(1)ell language: it reads input lines,
and scans for a command, and when it knows which command it is,
*then* it knows how to handle the rest of the line content. Ie,
if the command uses sh(1)ell style argument processing, then the
arguments are processed accordingly.
And, note, dear kre@, that "eval" is a command modifier, which
performs eval-times sh(1)ell-style processing of the command line
*before* all that happens. (Ie, like this, you can place several
commands on one line and separate them with sh(1)ell-style
semicolon, even if one of those commands does not actually use
shell-style argument processing.)
