for egrep we could check the existence of the file:
egrep --text -v '^\s*$|^#' $dir/$rulefile >> $cleaned/$rulefile
if [! -f $cleaned/$rulefile]; then
error "Could not append to $cleaned/$rulefile. Disk Full ?"
elif [! -s $cleaned/$rulefile]; then
if [ `egrep --text -v '^\s*$|^#' $dir/$rulefile|wc -l` > 0]; then
error "Could not append to $cleaned/$rulefile. Disk Full ?"
fi
fi
but the first check only works for the first egrep :(
well the second check came after same thoughts yesterday,
but this seems to introduce quite an overhead to grep
every pattern twice, maybe this is an hint for someone else!?
