Hi Alessandro, I'm not sure what $res can be in practice. But as it is the contents of $out_file (or more specifically, the stdout of running cat $outfile), in theory it could be anything. So while your patch addresses one error case. I think there are others. f.e. if res is not empty but not numeric, then we may see bash: [: b: integer expression expected Or if res contains a newline, then we may see bash: [: too many arguments So I wonder if it is better to treat $res as a string, and quote it to avoid unexpected side effects. [ "$res" = "0" ]
