Hi,

I trying to test two condition together (AND) under bash but it's not working...

The goal is ti have True when two variables are either not set or empty (empty string)

I've tried

if [[ -n VARIABLE1 && -n VARIABLE2 ]]; then
    echo "OK"
fi

Here I get the "OK" no matter what .

Thanks.

Thank you all for yours input

What finally did work

if [[ -z VARIABLE1 && -z VARIABLE2 ]]; then
    echo "OK"
fi

If only Linux was using Python syntax that would be so much more intuitive...
