why are you using "$$"...are you by any chance refering to pid of the current shell script or this is a typo for "&&" which is AND in condition matching..

shouldn't be that
Code:
if (!-e $Input_filename && !-d $Input_filename)

2ndly

if you making test using if-else try using [[ ]] braces or the test built-in. This is more approperiate...never used ( ) for testing

Code:
if  [[ ! -e $Input_filename && !-d $Input_filename ]]

or
Code:
if test ! -e $Input_filename  -a -d $Input_filename

gnutls-cli-debug(1)						   User Commands					       gnutls-cli-debug(1)

NAME

       gnutls-cli-debug - GnuTLS debug client

SYNOPSIS

       gnutls-cli-debug [-flag [value]]... [--opt-name[[=| ]value]]...

       Operands and options may be intermixed.	They will be reordered.

DESCRIPTION

       TLS  debug  client.  It	sets  up  multiple TLS connections to a server and queries its capabilities. It was created to assist in debugging
       GnuTLS, but it might be useful to extract a TLS server's capabilities.  It connects to a TLS server, performs tests and print the  server's
       capabilities.  If  called  with	the  `-v' parameter more checks will be performed.  Can be used to check for servers with special needs or
       bugs.

OPTIONS

       -d number, --debug=number
	      Enable debugging..  This option takes an integer number as its argument.	The value of number is constrained to being:
		  in the range	0 through 9999

	      Specifies the debug level.

       -V, --verbose
	      More verbose output.  This option may appear an unlimited number of times.

       -p number, --port=number
	      The port to connect to.  This option takes an integer number as its argument.  The value of number is constrained to being:
		  in the range	0 through 65536

       -h, --help
	      Display usage information and exit.

       -!, --more-help
	      Pass the extended usage information through a pager.

       -v [{v|c|n}], --version[={v|c|n}]
	      Output version of program and exit.  The default mode is `v', a simple version.  The `c' mode will print copyright information and
	      `n' will print the full copyright notice.
