- tehrei 10y agoLike, say, IFS in bash. Have you ever needed to set IFS? Do you know what it does? I've set it maybe 5 times and practically each one was to $'\n' so I can read newline-delimited input values in a while loop. But I appreciate the fact that I can set it to literally anything, if I ever need to.
