There is always someone who might already have done, what you are looking for -- Specially on Linux
I found the following genius line via Google when I was looking for a unmatched quote in a bash script

This like gives you the line numbers where you have unmatched quotes:

tr -cd "\"\n" < install_dir_safelinx/entrypoint.sh | awk 'length%2==1 {print NR, $0}'

This really made my day!! Very very cool!!
