bash 4.4.12(1) seems to not like a `;` at the beginning of the command
line.
I can't recall where I got this from, but I tend to use the following
on bourne style shells; bash (and others) seem happy with it for copy/paste:
h=copper$; tty
/dev/pts/0
h=copper$; h=copper$; tty
/dev/pts/0
h=copper#; tty
/dev/pts/0
h=copper#; h=copper#; tty
/dev/pts/0
'copper' being the hostname, $/# as per usual.
