The single '=' sign does assignment, a double '==' does string compare.
No, with the spaces around the '=' and the dollar before the variable name this actually is a test not an assignment. But using double '=' is more clear, agreed. Try
#!/bin/sh C="no" if [ $C = "yes" ]; then echo "1: $C" fi if [ $C="yes" ]; then echo "2: $C" fi
This will return: 2: no
Bash is very peculiar ;)
