Hi,

I don't quite understand this special parameters.

`$-`
:   Expands to the current option flags as specified upon invocation,
by the set builtin command, or those set by the shell itself (such as
the -i option).

On my system, I see something like the following. Could anybody
explain what it is? Thanks.

~$ echo $-
himBH

Regards,
Peng
