[SLUG] if [[ -e *.TXT ]] ; then

["Alister Waller" <alister@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

just a quicky if someone could help.

how do I check that a file with a particular extension exists in a directory
in a shell script.

eg:

if [[ -e *.TXT ]] ; then

Using a wildcard does not appear to work.

thanks in advance

alister
