Alright, so this was an uninteresting problem, I guess... no hits at all except for my own! But, I did solve PART of the problem, so for what its worth I am going to explain that... I am sure I am not the only person to make this mistake.
In my grep command, I was trying to reference a variable integer stored in $i.
Grep was reading the $ independently, as a regular expression meaning "at the end of the line" I think... but at any rate, it was NOT looking for the variable $i and passing that into the argument.
To work around this:
Code:
for i in {1..5}
do
echo $i; #to make sure the for loop was working as expected.
str="grep '^\[$i\]' ch25_footnotes.txt"; #I saved the whole thing as a string, which DOES
#interpret $i as a variable. If I were to echo that
#command, it would have a number there
#rather than a $i.
eval $str; #this actually runs the grep command
done
This works for the grep part... But I guess now the kink is in getting the for command to acknowledge the $n variable...
