or

check_parameter()
{
  postconf $1 2>/dev/null | grep -q =
  return $?
}

Then, you need an exit-code wrapper for "grep" too, it seems :)

check_result() {
   RESULT=$( grep "${1}" "${2}" 2>/dev/null )
   [ "${RESULT}" = "" ] && return 1
   return 0
}


So, why not directly?

Would be neat, great for functionality and just one line more of code ....
