Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting call script inside one script Post 302552293 by jgt on Friday 2nd of September 2011 09:27:52 AM

Code:
if [ "$answer" = "YES" ]; then 
 # steps 
fi

I would be more inclined to reverse the condition to:

Code:
if [  "$answer"  !=  "YES"  ]; then 
 exit 1
fi

While both work, I find that matching "if",s and "fi", that extend over a page or so of code to be error prone.
