Bash Version: 2.05
Patch Level: 0
Release Status: release

Description:
        The Bash manual describes "Here Strings" at
        http://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bashref.html#SEC43

        When attempting to use this feature, bash complains as follows:

        $ cat <<< hi
        bash: syntax error near unexpected token `<<<'

        Is this feature not present in this version of Bash?

Repeat-By:
        $ cat <<< hi
