[ program

Coreutils:
After compiling the coreutils, I looked in the coreutils-5.93/src directory, 
and noticed and executable named "[" doing an ls -l \[ gave me...

-rwxr-xr-x  1 bbeck bbeck 73120 2006-01-02 16:03 [

when I tried running the file it output...

./[: missing `]'

on a whim I ran the program with "]" as an argument. It returned nothing.

I was wondering if that [ program is supposed to be there, or if it's a typo. 
If I run info [ I get the info page for test, so I wasn't certain if they 
were related.

Thanks,
Brian
