Questions about commandline-args

[Christopher Roy Bratusek]

Hi list,

I've got a question about commandline args, imagine:

personal_function ab{c,d}

personal_function will receive abc and abd.
Is there a way to make it receive ab{c,d}
instead (without chaning the arguement itself)?

(The actual problem is not that personal_function
can't handle the arg, but that it passes it to a
command from /usr/bin and image it to pass
"abc abd abe abf" to `mv' instead of "ab{c,d} ab{e,f}",
or any other command which would not behave correctly)

Maybe there's no way, but I thought asking won't hurt.

Regards,
Chris
