Linux man test 先來看看Linux下對test的解釋(使用man test或者info test) [plain] TEST(1) FSF TEST(1) NAME test - check file types and compare values SYNOPSIS test EXPRESSION [ EXPRESSION ] test OPTION DESCRIPTION Exit with the status determined by EXPRESSION. --help display this help and exit --version output version information and exit EXPRESSION is true or false and sets exit status. It is one of: ( EXPRESSION ) EXPRESSION is true ! EXPRESSION EXPRESSION is false EXPRESSION1 -a EXPRESSION2 EXPRESSION1 -o EXPRESSION2 either EXPRESSION1 or EXPRESSION2 is true [-n] STRING the length of STRING is nonzero -z STRING the length of STRING is zero STRING1 = STRING2 the strings are equal STRING1 != STRING2 the strings are not equal INTEGER1 -eq INTEGER2 INTEGER1 is equal to INTEGER2 INTEGER1 -ge INTEGER2 INTEGER1 is greater than or equal to INTEGER2 INTEGER1 -gt INTEGER2 INTEGER1 is greater than INTEGER2 INTEGER1 -le INTEGER2 INTEGER1 is less than or equal to INTEGER2 INTEGER1 -lt INTEGER2 INTEGER1 is less than INTEGER2 INTEGER1 -ne INTEGER2 INTEGER1 is not equal to INTEGER2 FILE1 -ef FILE2 FILE1 and FILE2 have the same device and inode numbers FILE1 -nt FILE2 FILE1 is newer (modification date) than FILE2 FILE1 -ot FILE2 FILE1 is older than FILE2 -b FILE FILE exists and is block special -c FILE FILE exists and is character special -d FILE FILE exists and is a directory -e FILE FILE exists -f FILE FILE exists and is a regular file -g FILE FILE exists and is set-group-ID -h FILE FILE exists and is a symbolic link (same as -L) -G FILE FILE exists and is owned by the effective group ID -k FILE FILE exists and has its sticky bit set -L FILE FILE exists and is a symbolic link (same as -h) -O FILE FILE exists and is owned by the effective user ID -p FILE FILE exists and is a named pipe -r FILE FILE exists and is readable -s FILE FILE exists and has a size greater than zero -S FILE FILE exists and is a socket -t [FD] file descriptor FD (stdout by default) is opened on a terminal -u FILE FILE exists and its set-user-ID bit is set -w FILE FILE exists and is writable -x FILE FILE exists and is executable Beware that parentheses need to be escaped (e.g., by backslashes) for shells. INTEGER may also be -l STRING, which evaluates to the length of STRING. AUTHOR Written by FIXME: ksb and mjb. REPORTING BUGS Report bugs to <bug-coreutils@gnu.org>.

GNU coreutils 4.5.3 February 2003 TEST(1) 再看兩個簡單的例子: [plain] #樣本一 #!/bin/bash #iftest2 echo -n "Enter your name:" read NAME #did the user just hit return if [ "$NAME" == "" ]; then echo "You did not enter any infomation" else echo "Your name is ${NAME}" #樣本二 #!/bin/bash #ifelif echo -n "Enter your name:" read NAME if [ -z $NAME ] || [ "$NAME" = "" ]; then echo "You did not enter a name." elif [ "$NAME" = "root" ]; then echo "Hello root" elif [ "$NAME" = "chinaitlab" ]; then echo "Hello chinaitlab" else echo "You are not root or wgb,but hi,$NAME" fi 小技巧: 1.Linux對Shell的要求很嚴格,不要把代碼潔癖(比如定義變數的空格、if、while等等中為了美觀留下的空格)帶到Linux Shell編程中,稍不注意就會報錯; 2.多用man或者info,會收到意想不到的收穫。
