     Commands inside { } brackets are further restricted.  Posix says
     that they cannot be preceded by addresses, `!', or `;', and that
     each command must be followed immediately by a newline, without any
     intervening blanks or semicolons.  The closing bracket must be
     alone on a line, other than white space preceding or following it.
