The makestudy Bash script has several issues related to comparison operators and command substitution that can cause errors or compatibility problems. Below are the identified issues and suggested fixes:
-
Equality Operator (== vs =) for Numerical Comparison
-
osascript Check Exit Code Handling ($? Comparison)
Fix: Use -eq for numerical comparisons.
-
Directory Existence Check in makestudy Script
issue: The script uses -e to check for directory existence, which detects both files and directories. This can cause conflicts if a file with the same name as the study directory exists, even though it should not prevent study creation.
Fix: Use -d to specifically check for directories
