trying to create a script to read a flie and loop a command...
Tried to explain this earlier, but did a poor job of it. So I am trying again but taking a different approach.....
I have a file called test_words. In this file I have one line with 5 three letter words, with a single space seperating the words.(I.e., "dog car mop red pin") I want to create a script that will read the file and loop each word individually into a command until all words in the file have been used. Use the echo command for arguements sake. the output would look like this as the script read the file and ran a loop with a command for each word in the file: dog car mop red pin The file test_word may change, by adding words or subtracting words, but always use a space as the delimiter. can anyone help with this? Thank you in advance for any and all help on this. |
