To be fair that's missing a lot. I'm not sure how much is just showing its age and how much it never had. The actual bash manual is quite informative.
In particular, failure to mention `printf -v` is horrible. Not only is it better performing than creating a whole process for command substitution, it also avoids the nasty newline problem.
- LukeShu 1y ago`printf -v` was added in Bash 3.1 (2005). I think revisions of ABS predates that; but ABS has certainly been updated since then (last in 2014), and has no excuse for not including it.
