error on macos

Open dmytri opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

I have a user on MacOs and my jp-based script doesn't work, it seems jp itself doesn't work on mac os, asked the user to type jp 1 2 31 to test and got the error line 347: -2: substring expression < 0 on last item in stack

I don't have a mac, so unable to debug further

jp 1 2 3
3
2
: line 347: -2: substring expression < 0

It's hard to say without knowing their setup but my guess would be they're not using Bash 4.3 or higher. AFAIK MacOS ships with zsh and Bash 3.2.

Just made a pr to fix, haven't tested yet on macos, but all tests pass on linux
