<h2>Conditional command</h2>
<p>The syntax of the <strong>[[...]]</strong> command is</p>
<p><strong>[[</strong> <em>expression</em> <strong>]]</strong></p>
<p>It returns a status of 0 or 1 depending on the evaluation of the
conditional expression <em>expression</em>. The format of a conditional
expression is the same as the expressions evaluated by the
<a href="test.htm">test</a> utility.
<strong>qsh</strong> performs tilde expansion, parameter expansion, arithmetic
expansion, command substitution, and quote removal on <em>expression</em>
before it is evaluated.
</p>
<p><strong>Examples</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>A conditional command that uses a command substitution.
<pre>
if [[ $(grep -c apple fruits.txt) -eq 0 ]]
then
echo There are no apples in fruit.txt
fi
</pre>
</li>
</ol>
