The best place is to would be a pastebin or a url to the d/l, pastebin.ca can have things set to remain on display for months.


Never used it so I'm not aware of this boards attachments policy.


Code:
`expr "$lscmd" : '.*->.*'` -ne 0
means to use the output of the expr(ession) command and check if the value is not equal to zero.

the right side of the colon up until the closing back tick, ` is a regular expression to evaluate it against, I see no problem there.

I think the entire script would help.
