Plenty of people find the "" marks and in =>similar cases, to use ${foo} instead of $foo elsewhere, but I find the =>syntactic noise annoying if there's no other necessity. => =>Also, you should never use UPPER CASE names for script local variables (i.e. =>that are not to be exported). I give some background why here: Yes, yes yes a thousand times yes. I encourage people to always quote in an informed manner. This also can be expressed in a style that uses minimal quotes. 1. Don't quote if not necessary. 2. Use single quotes if quotes are needed but no variable interpolation is used. 3. Only use double quotes if you need variable interpolation. -- Time flies like the wind. Fruit flies like a banana. Stranger things have .0. happened but none stranger than this.
