Weird, I need those with my version of bash. > > rdleblanc@rdleblanc-laptop:/tmp$ tmux -V > tmux 1.9 > rdleblanc@rdleblanc-laptop:/tmp$ dash -c '[ "`tmux -V`" = *1.9* ]'; echo $? > 1 > rdleblanc@rdleblanc-laptop:/tmp$ bash -c '[[ "`tmux -V`" = *1.9* ]]'; echo > $? > 0 > rdleblanc@rdleblanc-laptop:/tmp$ bash -c '[[ `tmux -V` = *1.9* ]]'; echo $? > 0 > > I'm really at a loss.

The problem is neither "[[" or the use of '*' in the test is valid bourne shell syntax, so it's really not portable, and after looking at it with strace, it appears tmux is using /bin/sh (while my shell is /bin/zsh). I don't know for Debian, but on Ubuntu /bin/sh is linked to dash, and to bash on Redhat. > > Thanks, > Robert LeBlanc > -- A: Because it destroys the flow of conversation.
