What makes that "correct"? Just sounds like a different (and more
complicated, ..I guess) way to accomplish the same end result, but no
more "correct" then using double/single quotes.
I'm no bash expert but STRING="$STRING -P'asdf arg'" works equally as
well as ARRAY=( "${ARRAY[@]}" <new item> ) in my experience. What am
I missing?
