Not sure what you mean by which syntax error? I posted the entire awk error output, there was nothing else.
OK, so I seperated it out into single expressions:
The first line works, but the second two do not.
Is there some reason it works for strings and not for numbers?
I see your edit while I was posting. I don't think your code example handles midnight correctly, which is the reason I did not try to do it on one conditional.
00:00 needs to become 12:00 AM not 00:00 AM.
I'm just as interested in understanding why it is not working than finding working code.

Trying something else:
No errors. I need to ckeck the output.
So if that is the right way to use it, why do the string lines do exactly what is expected of them?

How do I interpret the following ternary operation?
fn_max(var_type a,var_type b,var_type c)
{
var_type t;
return(t=((t>a?:t;a)>b)?:t;b)>c?:t;c)
}

Hi,
Can someone give me an example of how to use zsh's ternary operator?
I tried:
# a=1
# c=( a ? "true" : "false" )
and got:
zsh: no matches found: ?
I'm running zsh 4.2 on RHEL AS 4.

Could somebody gently point out the error of my ways in the below (the flu I'm fighting might be contributing to my current haplessness)
