Urgh. Now I'm confused... the manual page for test on my Mac says that -f passes if the argument exists and is a regular file. A directory is not a regular file, so -f would fail (on MacOS at least), no? Also, by default, I thought links were followed and the destination was tested not the link itself? I'll do some more tests when I get back to my computer, and adjust again If necessary. Cheers, -- Gary V.
