I understand the use of ''.
But in this case could not be a interrupt call?
So it is no loop, the problem persists even if there is space between the ``.
I performed a test yesterday and got results.
FUNCNAME="$(declare -F | awk '{print $3}')"
FUNCECHO="$(declare -f | grep -o "`.*`" | sed 's/[ \t].*$//g' | tr -d "`")"
if [ $FUNCNAME == $FUNCECHO ]; then
# Here in the case would enter the search script that performs the function and
kill the process
# Then present the error message in bash
fi
Thanks for the feedback.
Sorry for poor English.
