done

Hi,
I agree with previous posts. But I have found that Xming serves me well, together with Cygwin+bash and "ssh -Y" or Putty with X11 tunneling enabled. The font support has been sufficient. Easy to...

Hi,
I'm not sure about this one because I get three lines in fileC instead of 2 as You state, but anyway, it may work as a hint:

Hi, do You have one file name per line in the .txt file and no other text in it?
Something like this would perhaps help, assuming your text file is called 1.txt:

Hi,
The period reads and executes the commands in the given file. It is a command, like the sh command. And the file does not need to be executable.

Hi,
a fast script solution (but not necessarily fast to run) is to search for some key string where the stack starts or ends? If You can specify such a string, is it data from the the top of the...

Good point, especially if one does other stuff after, that depends on IFS. Embedding it in the while statement is of course the best option.

Example:
date +%Y-%m-%d -d "2008-01-03 -7 days"
or in Your case,
back_time=$(date +%Y-%m-%d -d...

Hi,
another solution would be to use the tail-function of less, if You have it, which I often recommend as a more flexible alternative. And at least on my machines, the Ctrl-C does not "travel back"...
