Ah, sorry, it works now,
it's just that I was executing it in a ZSH
env. It needs to be a bash script. Thanks everyone, I got my transport
toggle now! It's disturbingly hacky, but it works :)
Nothing of his script requires bashisms, use zsh compatible
redirecting >/dev/null 2>&1 or don't redirect at all. For scripts like
this I anyway would use dash, because it's lightweight and faster than
bash.
