Re: [QF-Test] 'if' condition for string

[Martin Moser <martin.moser@?.de>]

Hi Richard,

'$(var)' == "whatever" works as well as long as you have no special
characters like backslashes or any language specific characters.

rc.lookup("var") takes care about escaping those characters correctly.

Best Regards,
Martin
