Hi,
currently bash(1) contains:
> ${parameter:offset:length}
> Substring Expansion. Expands to up to length characters of the value of
> parameter starting at the character specified by offset. If parameter is @,
> an indexed array subscripted by @ or *, or an associative array name, the
> results differ as described below.

> If parameter is @, the result is length positional parameters beginning at
> offset.
I noticed that Substring Expansion also works for the special parameter *.
Maybe it should be included in this section of the man page?
