I work on alot of shell code and I prefer the "spelled out the long way"
approach.
i.e. I prefer
if [blah]
then
if [blah2]
then
etc....
it's just easier to get it right in my opinion.
remember, when the rare 100 sets of fingers in teh picture then
you have to code toteh "bloody obvios" standard because sometimes people
have to change scripts to handle some external change, and thay may or
may not]
be shell syntax experts.
there si a lot that needs cleanup..
I thonk this is nto one of them..
I do apreciate however the thought and time you have spent.
