(Wasn't there a question today what's wrong with using sed? I think this issue qualifies.) I imagine that it is that MacOSX' sed is adding a trailing newline (not the regexp like you suggested). Which means that "wc -l" would print "1". (You can see for yourself if you run the script with "sh -x ...".) IMHO a good solution would be test -z "$(grep -e '^#' -e '^$' actual)" Could you test, please?
