The Eshell way to spell this is: ~ $ echo -- $a -anything (Maybe this could be a feature enhancement for Eshell's echo, but "--" is the usual way to do this sort of thing with other commands, at least these days. Arguably, this makes Eshell's echo better, since it's more consistent with those other commands... at the expense of being less consistent with other implementations of echo.)

Thanks, closing. I'm not sure if there's a special permission required, but if you add "-done" to the local part of the debbugs email address when replying (see this message for an example), it should close the bug. > PS: I have one or two things around variables that I could see in the > feature vs bug realm.

Otherwise, both features and bugs can go in bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org, I'd say. ------------=_1669053842-29212-1 Content-Type: message/rfc822 Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Received: (at submit) by debbugs.gnu.org;

Thanks, closing.

I'm not sure if there's a special permission required, but if you a= dd
"-done" to the local part of the debbugs email address when reply= ing
(see this message for an example), it should close the bug.

I'd recommend = emacs-devel@gnu.org if you'd like to discuss things with a
wider audience first. Otherwise, both features and bugs can go in
bug-gnu-emacs@gn= u.org, I'd say.
