Hi,
I just came across an interesting shell script syntax like the one below:
Can someone please explain the code snippet above?
The trap command bit is fine but [[ $mode = "INTERACTIVE" ]] && is the hazy part.
Generally we use an if before [[ ]], but it is not being used here!
I was also experimenting with the below code snippet and it seemed to work fine as long as I was not putting #! /usr/bin/ksh at the top of the script.
Why is it that it is running sans #! /usr/bin/ksh only?
I am using Solaris 5.8 by the way.
Thanks in advance .

One of the senior administrators gave me a shell script to modify and it begins as follows:
if ] && ]

if
This works.
I thought ksh supported the ]. Or is there more to it?
Thanks in advance. (3 Replies)
