I'm reading readarray.c.
I have two questions.
1. Is the function provided by munge_list needed anyway?
I'd like to remove because this option parsing policy(function)
is not widly used in bash.
2. What does the * stand for in the following doc string:
"readarray [-t] [-c *count*] [-C callback] [-n *lines*] [-O *origin*] *file* *array_variable*"
`*'s are needed in *count*, *lines*, *origin*, *file* and *array_variable*?
I'd like to remove it because this notation is not popular
in bash.
Tell me the backgrounds if there are.
