You've already got a marker to denote the end of the shell script baked in there, it's ^exit$

- withinboredom 3y agoThere may be more than one exit.
- oxygen_crisis 3y agoThere will be only one that is neither preceded by indentation nor followed by an exit code, so that it could match ^exit$, unless you contrive some hypothetical nonsense purely for the sake of contrarianism. Any reasonable person will indent a conditional exit within the block testing its condition, and more than one unconditional exit doesn't make sense.
- 8n4vidtmkvmk 3y agoIt would still make me uncomfortable that a 2nd exit or lack of indent would break my script. And it's less clear than an explicit marker
- withinboredom 3y agoAh fair enough. I didn’t think about using the indent, that’s pretty clever.
