Subject: bash conversion trouble.
Date: Fri, 24 Feb 2017 17:35:37 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <004ec4f2-3b3a-8907-86a6-4326399783aa@eastlink.ca> (raw)

Gentlemen:


I'm trying to convert a long script from bash, which I know not at all, 
to zsh, which I know hardly better:

bash likes thisbut zsh throws a syntax error:

     case "${USE_OVERLAYFS,,}" in

zsh likes this:

     case "${USE_OVERLAYFS}" in

and I can't see what the pair of commas would do anyway and I'm afraid 
to ask.  Will they be missed?
