If pidof finds the named process, the line will have one or more space-separated numbers on it. If it doesn't find the named process, it will print an empty line. It does not "return null". ----------------------------- To add to what Tony said... `pidof` will return an exit code of 1 if no processes exist, and 0 if processes do exist: # pidof Xorg 2354 # echo $? 0 # pidof mysql # echo $? 1
