While we are on this: wondering about the difference about -h and -L I found
that `man test` outputs on OS X:
" -h file True if file exists and is a symbolic link. This operator
is retained for compatibility with pre-
vious versions of this program. Do not rely on its
existence; use -L instead."
while on Linux `man test` just states that it's the same. Is there any
preference which one should be used for the bash builtin?
