I just had a weird experience. I hope someone has an idea what happened.
I created a new shell script from the unix shell by putting two
commands in a file:
echo "Command 1" > newfile.sh
echo "Command 2" >> newfile.sh
I then edited the resulting file. In the file I created a line (using
bbedit) with the following syntax:
TARGET_DIR="/path/to/target"
After I saved the file something strange happened. Instead of having
regular double quotes (") around the path there was a non printable
character around the path.
Using "od" I found out that this was \323 (octal specification).
Whatever I searched I could not find how to convert this into a
regular character.
For test I created a new file from scratch and does seem to work
normally which makes me think it must have something to do with the
contents of the file.
Any advise?
Fred
