i think that is a feature of echo
if you want without the space you could use printfalias x='printf "PAR=%s\n" $1'

Hi all,
Running F23, and my shell is /bin/bash.
My problem: suppose you define an alias:
alias x='echo PAR=$1'
Now call the alias by:
x 1
Output: PAR= 1
My question: why do I get the blank before the "1"?
All comments are welcome.
Kind regards
