What operating system is this on? I guess the [ line isn't portable. If
you tell us the OS we can look up the man page and rewrite the test.

Solaris /bin/sh does not have test -e (as opposed to
/usr/xpg4/bin/sh, which does).  In this context, I think -f
instead of -e should preserve the behaviour and be more portable.
