Which list

[Chris F.A. Johnson]

    There are some features I'd like to see added to bash:


read -tN: accept fractional values for N, as well as 0



     Parameter expansion, upper and lower case conversion:

var=aez
${var^}        --> Aez  ## convert first alpha character to upper case
${var^^}       --> AEZ  ## convert all alpha characters to upper case
${var^[a-e]}   --> Aez  ## convert first alpha character matching the pattern
${var^^[a-e]}  --> AEz  ## convert all alpha characters matching the pattern

${var_...} ## as above, but convert to lower case
${var#...} ## as above, but convert lower to upper and upper to lower
