Description David L Emerson 2007-03-13 09:02:50 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:                Linux

VERSION INFO
============
from /usr/share/apps/katepart/syntax/bash.xml
language name="Bash" version="2.06" kateversion="2.4"
author: Wilbert Berendsen, wilbert kde nl

THE BUG
=======
load kate with a bash-highlighted document, and type this:

exec 0<<<"$var"
# highlighting is now in "here-document" mode

it appears that, when already in the context of redirection, a here-string is being erroneously treated as a here-document.

Fortunately, there's a workaround (which might be another bug in action):

# <"$var
# ends the here-document highlighting
# (notice there's no end quote)

Proper highlighting of "\d*<<<" redirection.
This feature seems not mentioned in the Bash Manual.

The following is being quoted from 
$ man 1 bash
$ echo "${BASH_VERSINFO[@]}"

Here Strings
 A variant of here documents, the format is: 


 
<<<word



 The word is expanded and supplied to the command on its standard input.

I read that, but it doesn't speak of file descriptors in front of that.
