Maybe I fat-fingered something the first time. BTW, "foo" is really %ADMINSGUID (that is, "544") so numerical comparison is correct. If $var contains something other than a (positive) number, that's an error anyway. If $var starts with a shell meta-character, that's an error too. And anyway, $var is not actually a $var, but the output of a command pipeline. So, $(compute gid of file) -eq $ADMINSGUID is actually correct. -- Chuck -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
