Expand parameter in quotes in zsh
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
I want to pass function arguments to zsh’s emulate to evaluate a command in bash emulation:
$ .bash() emulate bash -c "$*"
$ .bash 'source /path/to/script.sh'
It’s ok but I want this without quotes like a precommand modifier (to use syntax highlighting, completion, etc.) as in
$ .bash source /path/to/script.sh
The problem arises when a command line contains quoted spaces:
$ .bash source /path/to/"script with spaces".sh
$ # I want it to expand to
$ emulate bash -c 'source /path/to/"script with spaces".sh'
$ # or the like
I tried to play with different quotes and with $(qq)* expansion flags.
No good so far.
Is there any way to achieve this?
zsh arguments parameter whitespace
