Hi folks,
A colleague pointed me to this problem: If I run
( set -e; ( false; echo x ) )
in bash 4.1.5, then there is no screen output, as
expected. If I change this to
( set -e; ( false; echo x ) || echo y )
then I get "x" instead of "y". How comes?
Any helpful comment would be highly appreciated.
Harri
