11 Well it's easy using chained commands, but a single bash expansion will fail as some point as you seen and make the whole command fail.

13 Something like this maybe :
14
15 if [ -f python2.? ] ; then
16 echo "python2.6 stuff"
17 elif [ -f python2.?.exe ] ; then
18 echo "in python2.6.exe stuff"
19 else
20 echo "error ?"
21 fi
