I don't get that at all with this snippet: |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
$ cat test.sh |
| 16 |
#!/bin/bash |
| 17 |
if [ -f foo* ] ; then |
| 18 |
echo "foo exists" |
| 19 |
fi |
| 20 |
$ |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
This makes me suspect you've got `#!bash -x` (or -e?) as your first line, or something. |

When you encounter a problem you don't understand, create the most minimal program you can to reproduce the problem. If you can't reproduce it, add to it one step at a time until it becomes what you're trying to do. |
