Test whether absolute path in variable
I'm using the following line in bash to test whether an argument supplied is an absolute path or not:
if echo $1 | grep '^/' > /dev/null then absolute=1 else absoute=0 fi The line appears to work but seems somewhat unprofessional looking to me. Is it an acceptable way to test this or is there some more advisable way? |
