-<h1 class="subsection">Is this Shell Interactive?</h1> <p>To determine within a startup script whether or not Bash is running interactively, test the value of the ‘<samp>-</samp>’ special parameter. It contains <code>i</code> when the shell is interactive. For example: </p> <div class="example"> <pre class="example">case "$-" in
-*i*) echo This shell is interactive ;;
-*) echo This shell is not interactive ;;
-esac
-</pre>
-</div> <p>Alternatively, startup scripts may examine the variable <code>PS1</code>; it is unset in non-interactive shells, and set in interactive shells. Thus: </p> <div class="example"> <pre class="example">if [ -z "$PS1" ]; then
- echo This shell is not interactive
-else
- echo This shell is interactive
-fi
-</pre>
