BASH while [ ls "$1/tmp/" | wc -l -ge 3 ]; problem

[dave selby]

Hi all,

Stuck on bash, I need to execute a while loop while there are >= 3
items in a dir. I tried

while [ ls "$1/tmp/" | wc -l -ge 3 ];

and I get ./kmotion_hkd.sh: line 33: [: missing `]'

any idea what I am missing ?

Cheers

Dave
