Or command
I am having trouble with an Or command in my UNIX script.
It is as follows: Quote:
The holdfile is correct and putting out the right result and the dan.txt is also right stripping the first 4 characters off each file name. Any ideas?

I would use "case" instead:
Code:
for i in `cat ${OUT_DIR}/holdfile`
do
#Check each file has the correct name begins with PACK or LETT
LETTYPE=`expr substr $i 1 4`
echo "$LETTYPE" >> dan.txt
case $LETTYPE in
LETT|PACK)
# Do nothing.
:;;
*)
# Exit.
echo "Invalid file name, look at holdfile ($i)"
exit 1
;;
esac
done
echo "Valid file names for processing" >> ${LOGFILE}
