hi,
=~ no longer working in bash. just try this little line:
-----------------------------
if [[ "abc" =~ "abc.*" ]]; then echo inside; else echo outside; fi
-----------------------------
this give "inside" up to 4.0, but it gives "outside" in 4.1.
imho it's a serious changes since all shell script will fail which use
=~ :-(
is there any reason for this? or any quick fixes?
thanks in advance.
regards.
