hello, I recently backported some bash scripts developed on cygwin to linux. to my surprise I got an interpretation error on a few of them. here's a sample: #!/bin/bash if [ "$1" == "" ]; then while [ -z "$INSTALL_DOMAIN" ] ; do echo -n "Enter server web domain name: " ; read INSTALL_DOMAIN ; done else INSTALL_DOMAIN="$1" fi this works on cygwin bash (latest fix) but gives: t.sh: [: ==: binary operator expected on linux. my Oreilly 'Learning the bash shell' book says that using == is a common beginner mistake. I was wondering about this..... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
