Yay, I got thunderbird sending email through gmail again! (The version upgrade changed the authentication type in the smtp server settings, but I could still set it BACK...) I wanted a partially sparse file there, which truncate was preserving the contents of. There's %b and %B which is block size and size per block, and bash can do: $ x=1+3; echo $((x)) 4 So what I should probably do is: X=$(stat -c %B); [ $(($(stat -c %b freep)*X)) -le $((12345+X)) ]] The problem is, you're not using bash or toysh for these tests, you're using a shell of unknown capabilities. Can the macos and android shells do that? Rob P>S. Possibly I should use expr instead? The main reason I hadn't promoted expr yet, modulo the historical priority issues and that posix bugfix resulting from me reporting that their html conversion was dropping information about priority grouping, was that I wanted to see if expr could use the same plumbing as $((math)) in the shell. And now that I've got the shell math plumbing finished-ish, the answer is that I could probably write a NEW expr using that plumbing, but the existing one very much not. I dislike the parallel string/int plumbing in the current expr, and the TWO different enums where we tag a structure in order to marshall data to ourselves...
