I am really new to UNIX and programming in general and so apologies if this thread is a bit simple.
I have searched and found a piece of sample code for a training program I am currently undertaking, but seeing as I am relatively new, I dont completely understand how it works.
Here is the code:
Basically I understand how the script works generally, but I am just wondering whether the [[ ]] is equal to a shorthand if statement?
Also is ${owner_read:-NO} checking if the result from the above statement is null and then if so printing "NO"?
Sorry if this is a bit simple.
Thanks for any help.

pam_console_apply
pam_console_appy(8) System Administrator's Manual pam_console_appy(8)NAME
pam_console_apply - set or revoke permissions for users at the system console
SYNOPSIS
pam_console_apply [-r]
DESCRIPTION
pam_console_apply sets or resets permissions on devices in the same manner as pam_console.
If /var/run/console.lock exists, pam_console_apply will grant permissions to the user listed therein. If the lock file does not exist,
permissions are reset to those listed in /etc/security/console.perms, which should be configured to set permissions on devices so that root
owns them.
ARGUMENTS -r Signals pam_console_apply to reset permissions. The default is to set permissions so that the user listed in /var/run/console.lock
has access to the devices, and to reset permissions if no such file exists.
FILES
/var/run/console.lock
/etc/security/console.perms
