Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Assistance with my Find command to identify last part of a file name and report the name found Post 303041201 by MadeInGermany on Monday 18th of November 2019 04:29:15 AM

You can put semicolons instead of newlines.
And vice versa; there is hardly a need for a one-liner.
Example string:
Code:
echo 'two
lines'

Example shell code:
Code:
result=$(
if [ -f /var/chef/cache/cookbooks/bootstrap_cookbooks_version_green ]
then echo "green"
elif [ -f /var/chef/cache/cookbooks/bootstrap_cookbooks_version_red ]
then echo "red"
else echo "does not exist"
fi
)
