2nd one, feels natural as a programmer.
I typically use
find "$HOME/docs", but with a few caveats:- In Zsh or Fish, the quotes are unnecessary:
find $HOME/docs - If I’m using anything potentially destructive:
mv "${HOME:?}/bin" ... - Of course, if it’s followed by a valid identifier character, I’ll add braces:
"${basename}_$num.txt" - I’m pretty inconsistent when globbing:
"$HOME"/docs/*or"$HOME/docs/"*are common for me. - I don’t use
"${HOME}"unless I actually need the braces. Partly it’s because the braces are even less necessary in Zsh:$#array[3]works as you’d expect.
I always brace my variables.
While I also use ZSH, I write most of my scripts in bash because they more often than not need to run on a CI/CD server.
- In Zsh or Fish, the quotes are unnecessary:
Depends. I use G’MIC (Interpretative language for image processing largely inspired by bash) in CLI.
ig “C:\Users\User.…”
If I need something with ‘$’ in CLI, I’d be using $_path_rc\something_something. Sometimes with “” in case of spaces.
Other than that, I would be just running my own coded command in most case.
