Hi
I was writing this little bash script using find and I came along this
difference from using the same command on the command line and in bash
script.
Basically on the command line I have to type:
/usr/bin/find /opt/yum/packages/ -mtime +2 -a \( -regex .*.rpm -o
-regex .*.hdr \) -exec ls -lrt {} \;
whereas , in a bash script I have to type:
/usr/bin/find /opt/yum/packages/ -mtime +2 -a ( -regex .*.rpm -o
-regex .*.hdr ) -exec ls -lrt {} ;
As you can see I need to escape parenthesis and semi-colons on the
command line but I don't need to do that in a bash script.
Is there a reason for this?
Many Thanks
Dan
