alt Hacker NewsI love this, from a comment on the article:
He had in his path a script called `\#` that he used to comment out pipe elements like `mycmd1 | \# mycmd2 | mycmd3`. This was how the script was written:
```
#!/bin/sh
cat

A similar trick:
that's my `~/bin/noglob` file, so when I call a zsh script from bash that uses `noglob`, it doesn't blow up.
