Hi,

I think this does not do what you want. If I read it correctly, it will 
not do anything if $workdir/../map/$1 is not readable. I think you need 
this:

	(test -r "$workdir/../map/$1" &&
	cat "$workdir/../map/$1") ||
	echo "$1"

But that is a little too cute, so I personally would prefer an 
if-then-else-fi, because that is the idea of that code snippet.

Ciao,
