The content of this NAMES variable are TOKENS seperated by spaces.

i want to pass each token to another script called run.sh as follows:


while [<ALL tokens in $NAMES one by one>]
do
sh run.sh <TOKEN>
done

please provide the logic for seperating NAMES token and then calling run.sg with each token ????
You would be better off with using a for loop
Code:
NAMES=`ls *.txt`
echo $NAMES
for file in $NAMES
do
  sh run.sh $file
done

or better yet
Code:
for file in *.txt
do
  sh run.sh $file
done
