Line by line file reading... and more!
Hello,
I've got a lot of this file replication script written, but I'm having trouble finishing it off. What I need to do at the moment is run through a file one line at a time, execute the line, then check the time. The process cannot run past 7am. I've got a while loop set up to handle the time, I just need the innards of the loop to go through the file one line at a time. The file looks like this: cp /path/to/file /path/to/new/file ...... etc over and over again. Also, if it reaches 7am and the file is not completed, its remaining contents must be saved for the next night. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Code:
hour="`date '+%H'`"
while [ $hour -ne "07" ]
do
// read/execute next line of the file
hour="`date '+%H'`"
done
//once it is 7am, save the remainder of the file until the next night.

You can do something like that :
Code:
> not_proceeded_lines
hour="`date '+%H'`"
while read input_line
if [ $hour -ne "07" ]
then
echo "Proceed line ..."
hour="`date '+%H'`"
else
echo "$input_line" >> not_proceeded_lines
fi
done < input_file
Jean-Pierre.
