[Help-bash] Email formatting error (was: Re: echo and environment variables)

[David Niklas]

Dear Mr. Gaston,
Your reply messages appear in the bash-help digest as email (>), quoted
text. I think that this is an error on your end so I'm sending this
message just to you.
Below is a reply of yours with all headers attached. Notice that the URL
is double email quoted when it should be single email quoted.
This makes you especially difficult to follow when you do an inline reply.

Thanks,
David
