Curious - exactly what man page do you find that in? I've always seen that construction but given that it just uses random punctuation it's impossible to Google

- pstch 10y agoThe chapter on parameter subsitution in the LDP's Bash Scripting Guide is nice for this : http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/parameter-substitution.html http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/parameter-substitution.html
- alphapapa 10y agoThat's from the Bash man page. :) If you open it in less, you can do `/ :- RET` to search for `:-` and jump to it, which will take you to that part.
