Re: Bash don't interpret ~ path with multiple options.

Show key headers only | View raw

Bash will only replace '~' when it has a space before it
and it is not in quotes.  It also won't expand '~' if it
has special characters in it.  In your lines, the '~'
after the equal won't be replaced but the one
at the end should be.
