Hi, 

I was looking around /bin to see what's big and small, and came across an odd file called '['.  Would someone kindly tell me why it's there?  

$ uname -a; ls /bin/[; man [
NetBSD Gateway 1.5.2 NetBSD 1.5.2 (GENERIC) #3: Sat Aug 18 23:37:05 CEST 2001     he@hamster.urc.uninett.no:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC i386

/bin/[

man: no entry for [ in the manual.

Thanks.
