+ "Variable interpolation is introduced whenever the '$' character
+appears unquoted in any argument (except when that argument is
+surrounded by single quotes) . It may be used to interpolate a
+variable value, a subcommand, or even the result of a Lisp form."
+ :tag "Variable handling"
+ :group 'eshell)
+
+;;; Commentary:
+
+;; These are the possible variable interpolation syntaxes. Also keep
+;; in mind that if an argument looks like a number, it will be
+;; converted to a number. This is not significant when invoking
+;; external commands, but it's important when calling Lisp functions.
+;;
+;; $VARIABLE
+;;
+;; Interval the value of an environment variable, or a Lisp variable
+;;
+;; $ALSO-VAR
+;;
+;; "-" is a legal part of a variable name.
+;;
+;; $<MYVAR>-TOO
+;;
+;; Only "MYVAR" is part of the variable name in this case.
+;;
+;; $#VARIABLE
+;;
+;; Returns the length of the value of VARIABLE. This could also be
+;; done using the `length' Lisp function.
+;;
+;; $(lisp)
+;;
+;; Returns result of lisp evaluation. Note: Used alone like this, it
+;; is identical to just saying (lisp); but with the variable expansion
+;; form, the result may be interpolated a larger string, such as
+;; '$(lisp)/other'.
+;;
+;; ${command}
+;;
+;; Returns the value of an eshell subcommand. See the note above
+;; regarding Lisp evaluations.
+;;
+;; $ANYVAR[10]
+;;
+;; Return the 10th element of ANYVAR. If ANYVAR's value is a string,
+;; it will be split in order to make it a list. The splitting will
+;; occur at whitespace.
+;;
+;; $ANYVAR[: 10]
+;;
+;; As above, except that splitting occurs at the colon now.
+;;
+;; $ANYVAR[: 10 20]
+;;
+;; As above, but instead of returning just a string, it now returns a
+;; list of two strings. If the result is being interpolated into a
+;; larger string, this list will be flattened into one big string,
+;; with each element separated by a space.
+;;
+;; $ANYVAR["\\\\" 10]
+;;
+;; Separate on backslash characters. Actually, the first argument --
+;; if it doesn't have the form of a number, or a plain variable name
+;; -- can be any regular expression. So to split on numbers, use
+;; '$ANYVAR["[0-9]+" 10 20]'.
+;;
+;; $ANYVAR[hello]
+;;
+;; Calls `assoc' on ANYVAR with 'hello', expecting it to be an alist.
+;;
+;; $#ANYVAR[hello]
+;;
+;; Returns the length of the cdr of the element of ANYVAR who car is
+;; equal to "hello".
+;;
+;; There are also a few special variables defined by Eshell. '$$' is
+;; the value of the last command (t or nil, in the case of an external
+;; command). This makes it possible to chain results:
+;;
+;; /tmp $ echo /var/spool/mail/johnw
+;; /var/spool/mail/johnw
+;; /tmp $ dirname $$
+;; /var/spool/mail/
+;; /tmp $ cd $$
+;; /var/spool/mail $
+;;
+;; '$_' refers to the last argument of the last command. And $?
+;; contains the exit code of the last command (0 or 1 for Lisp
+;; functions, based on successful completion).
