DESCRIPTION

       /build/rust-coreutils-mQkL0l/rust-coreutils-0.0.14/debian/tmp/usr/bin/[  0.0.14 Check file
       types and compare values.

   USAGE:
              /build/rust-coreutils-mQkL0l/rust-coreutils-0.0.14/debian/tmp/usr/bin/[  EXPRESSION
              /build/rust-coreutils-mQkL0l/rust-coreutils-0.0.14/debian/tmp/usr/bin/[           [
              EXPRESSION ] [ ] [ OPTION

   OPTIONS:
       -h, --help
              Print help information

       -V, --version
              Print version information

       Exit with the status determined by EXPRESSION.

       An omitted EXPRESSION defaults to false.  Otherwise, EXPRESSION is true or false and  sets
       exit status.  It is one of:

       ( EXPRESSION )
              EXPRESSION is true

       ! EXPRESSION
              EXPRESSION is false

       EXPRESSION1 -a EXPRESSION2
              both EXPRESSION1 and EXPRESSION2 are true

       EXPRESSION1 -o EXPRESSION2
              either EXPRESSION1 or EXPRESSION2 is true

       -n STRING
              the length of STRING is nonzero

       STRING equivalent to -n STRING

       -z STRING
              the length of STRING is zero

       STRING1 = STRING2
              the strings are equal

       STRING1 != STRING2
              the strings are not equal

       INTEGER1 -eq INTEGER2
              INTEGER1 is equal to INTEGER2

       INTEGER1 -ge INTEGER2
              INTEGER1 is greater than or equal to INTEGER2

       INTEGER1 -gt INTEGER2
              INTEGER1 is greater than INTEGER2

       INTEGER1 -le INTEGER2
              INTEGER1 is less than or equal to INTEGER2

       INTEGER1 -lt INTEGER2
              INTEGER1 is less than INTEGER2

       INTEGER1 -ne INTEGER2
              INTEGER1 is not equal to INTEGER2

       FILE1 -ef FILE2
              FILE1 and FILE2 have the same device and inode numbers

       FILE1 -nt FILE2
              FILE1 is newer (modification date) than FILE2

       FILE1 -ot FILE2
              FILE1 is older than FILE2

       -b FILE
              FILE exists and is block special

       -c FILE
              FILE exists and is character special

       -d FILE
              FILE exists and is a directory

       -e FILE
              FILE exists

       -f FILE
              FILE exists and is a regular file

       -g FILE
              FILE exists and is set-group-ID

       -G FILE
              FILE exists and is owned by the effective group ID

       -h FILE
              FILE exists and is a symbolic link (same as -L)

       -k FILE
              FILE exists and has its sticky bit set

       -L FILE
              FILE exists and is a symbolic link (same as -h)

       -N FILE
              FILE exists and has been modified since it was last read

       -O FILE
              FILE exists and is owned by the effective user ID

       -p FILE
              FILE exists and is a named pipe

       -r FILE
              FILE exists and read permission is granted

       -s FILE
              FILE exists and has a size greater than zero

       -S FILE
              FILE exists and is a socket

       -t FD  file descriptor FD is opened on a terminal

       -u FILE
              FILE exists and its set-user-ID bit is set

       -w FILE
              FILE exists and write permission is granted

       -x FILE
              FILE exists and execute (or search) permission is granted

       Except  for  -h  and  -L,  all FILE-related tests dereference symbolic links.  Beware that
       parentheses need to be escaped (e.g., by backslashes) for shells.  INTEGER may also be  -l
       STRING, which evaluates to the length of STRING.

       NOTE:  Binary -a and -o are inherently ambiguous.  Use 'test EXPR1 && test EXPR2' or 'test
       EXPR1 || test EXPR2' instead.

       NOTE: [ honors the --help and --version options, but test does not.  test treats  each  of
       those as it treats any other nonempty STRING.

       NOTE:  your  shell may have its own version of test and/or [, which usually supersedes the
       version described here.  Please refer to your shell's documentation for details about  the
       options it supports.
