the TEST command
Hi everyone,
I am new to UNIX and scripting, and I have some problems with the test command.
when i try to execute the command:
test 20070327.gz > 20070320.gz
i try to make a charachter string comparison between the two strings or the two files, to make sure that 20070327.gz is greater than 20070320.gz
but the command is not accepted, i think the shell interprets the > as an input output redirector, not as a (greater than)sign.
so, how can I escape this error?
Thanks in advance
