So what remains then is only '<<<' being a one-liner shortcut and
the '<<-' (plus the '<<#' in ksh) features to control indentation,
I suppose.

Now, I wonder about the actual implementation.  In early versions of the
Bourne shell, using << actually created a temp file somewhere (perhaps in /tmp),
which raises the specter of that file not getting removed in crash scenarios.

I don't suppose that is still a cause for concern.  What about <<<?  How is
that implemented?
