unable to run command with --long-name style #3

Closed qunying closed 8 years ago

qunying commented 8 years ago

When running a command with --long-name style, I will get the following:

ls --version
End of File
^---------^ shell word or semi-colon expected

Tested under Slackware64, running 1.5.1 and the latest 20a3fa345.

Hi,

"--" is a comment in SparForte. The long option must be in quotes or use backslahes for the minus signs.

=> ls "--version" => ls --version

For more information, please read "Why do I get an error when I run a command with a long option on the command prompt?" in the FAQ.

Thanks. Ken B.

Sorry. I was suspecting my end of error but did not dig dipper to the FAQ. Problem solved.
