So I'm fairly confused at this point. Start with a /bin/sh shell. Then do: sh-3.2$ unset $? sh: unset: `0': not a valid identifier ok, no problem; then do sh-3.2$ /bin/ksh -c " set -xv ; grep ABCD b ; echo $? ; if [ "$?" = "0" ] ; then echo yes ; fi" + grep ABCD b ABCD="C" ; export ABCD + echo 1 1 + [ 1 = 0 ] WHAT? Then do it again without unsetting $?: sh-3.2$ /bin/ksh -c " set -xv ; grep ABCD b ; echo $? ; if [ "$?" = "0" ] ; then echo yes ; fi" + grep ABCD b ABCD="C" ; export ABCD + echo 0 0 + [ 0 = 0 ] + echo yes yes Why doesn't the first iteration work? Is this a ksh bug? Thanks.
