NAME
true, false - Returns a standard exit value
SYNOPSIS
true
false
STANDARDS
Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows:
true: XCU5.0
false: XCU5.0
Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry standards and associated tags.
DESCRIPTION
The true command returns a 0 (zero) exit value. The false command returns a nonzero exit value. These commands are usually used in input to
shell commands.
NOTES
The special built-in utility : (colon) is sometimes more efficient than the true command.
EXIT STATUS
[Tru64 UNIX] The nonzero value returned by the false command may vary from system to system.

To construct a loop in a shell procedure, enter: while true do date sleep 60 done
This procedure displays the date and time once a minute. To stop it, press the Interrupt key sequence.
