That's a result of the quoting used, the default mode add backslashes for some characters (including backslash). Now you could argue that input params specified on the shell should use shell quoting when being diagnosed. If you change all those, then you're left with very few cases of quote(), which suggests we should just switch to quotef() everywhere? Using quotef() gives the following (note curly quotes are also not used): tr: extra operand '\\' Note there are edge cases where shell quoting may be worse. For example if you were trying to delete quotes, then: $ tr-before -s x -d "\"'" tr: extra operand ‘"'’ $ tr-after -s x -d "\"'" tr: extra operand '"'\''' Well maybe that's no worse, since neither diagnostic matches the input, and I suppose the shell quoting has a better chance of matching the input seeing as that's specified to a shell. I'm leaning towards making that change. I also remember Eric tentatively suggesting the same. cheers, Pádraig
