First try changing yourself with someone who knows unix-shell before writing shell-scripts or at least someone who learns first and then writes code
Then, maybe change "$path" to `cat $path` in the for-statement

suggestion on variable names
I would strongly recommend against using unix keywords as variable names. The word "path" is used for storing locations to find programs for a user. Try typing:
Code:
echo $PATH Yes, uppercase vs. lowercase, but just a matter of there are enough places to make mistakes in unix scripting without causing an extra headache for yourself. Also, take a look at the following: Code:
> cat listingnm Tom Henry Ben Linda Marry Code:
> cat listcontents #! /bin/bash filesrch=listingnm while read student do echo "$student" done < $filesrch Code:
> listcontents Tom Henry Ben Linda Marry
