I dunno, but perhaps it's checking for invalid usages like this?
foo=bar break
That would indeed be invalid, but usages like
test -r foo && bar=baz && break
are OK as far as I know.
Okay, thanks for the reply.
I'll change the test to:
$EGREP -n '[^ ]=[^ ]*[ ]*(break|continue)' $scripts
Which will also stop it choking on valid things like this:
foo=bar; break
Cheers,
Gary.
