Oh well, others can still learn from it. (Note that -o for option is also not POSIX, but POSIX rules still apply, and [[…]] doesn’t have this problem.) >I guess this explains why the POSIX spec does not include 'test -o' (or >'test -a' as a synonym for 'test -e'). Not including them avoids this >logical but unintuitive behaviour. That, and it specificially says their spec is unambiguous only because they require the argument for -t. bye, //mirabilos -- Stéphane, I actually don’t block Googlemail, they’re just too utterly stupid to successfully deliver to me (or anyone else using Greylisting and not whitelisting their ranges).
