Alternative solutions are using `typeset -m 'SMARTD*'` (you did know about `which -m`, did not you? This is similar.)

Perfect. And yes, it's nice to see '-m' here behave as expected from'whence -m'.


English:

Though we would say: "didn't you?" and 'didn't' expands to 'did not',yet "did not you" is incorrect, which is quite crazy, it should be: "didyou not?" Probably no one can even explain why.
