When I echo $SOMEDATA I get .:/somedir/files
What I'm not seeing is the purpose of coding this. Are they assigning 2 directories to SOMEDATA? One being current and the other being /somedir/files delimited by ":"?
BTW, I need to decipher scripts for work and I'll have more questions from the looks of it.
TIA
