>Incidentally, I may have missed this but I don't recall seeing any mention >of (( )) and [[ ]], which one may find in ksh but not bash. bash has all of the features of (( )) , without the (( )) syntax. But as friedman@gnu.ai.mit.edu mention, bash has $[ ] syntax. It would be nice if the (( )) syntax could be treated the same as the $[ ] synax (assuming they have the same semantics). I didn't mention [[ ]] because that's only in the 1988 version of ksh. Almost none of the features added to the 1988 version of ksh are in bash; bash basically supports the 1986 version of ksh. Oops, I see that I typed the wrong thing in my original posting! I meant to compare bash to ksh86 not ksh88. Sorry about that.
