greet_sed, you will notice that kumaar1986 is in the Bourne Shell, so your statement is not valid.
As a demo with my version (and using a case statement to neaten the options):-
You will notice that in the second part, the file ghi* seems to be listed. This is probably because it's actually getting a message about file not found, hence why having the *) clause for the case statement is a good idea. You may want to eith handle the error, ignore it or notify that expected input is missing.

I'm sure this is by design, but using something like
for f in dir/*
do echo $f
done
produces unexpected (to me) results if run against an empty directory. I'd have expected it to not execute the loop, but it actually calls it with f set to 'dir/*'.
Now I know that I'm trying to protect... (2 Replies)
