Single command to check if file exists, and print (custom) message to stdout? how about ( [ -f py_concur.py ] && echo "file exists" ) || echo "file does not exist"? |

Difference between [[ $variable ]] and [[ -n $variable ]]? +1 for the link which is very informative however Stephane Chazelas's answer, which I accepted, is more to the point. |

Why is $'\0' the same as ''? @slhck, thanks. What about situations involving multi-step operations on each file where a loop may be preferable for readability reasons? Is there a better loop option than the "naïve way" above? |

How do I remove carriage returns from directory names? +1 for a working solution. The downvote is probably from the bash purist brigade for parsing command substitution output, this is deemed a pitfall(mywiki.wooledge.org/BashPitfalls#for_i_in_.24.28ls_.2A.mp3.29). The preferred option is to use a combination of read and find with NUL byte separators see mywiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ/020 |

Is there a command line utility to transpose a csv-file? what does /tmp/l represent? Additionally, would it not be simpler to loop through the columns rather than lines, something along the lines of for ((i=1; i<=$num_cols; ++i)); do paste -s -d, <(cut -f$i -d, file.txt); done |
