Full Discussion: how to capture a multi-line input
Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting how to capture a multi-line input Post 302328771 by aoussenko on Thursday 25th of June 2009 07:41:53 AM
Old 06-25-2009
The part of the script I am trying to write will promp the user to provide the input. Once the input is provided it needs to be send to the file for further processing. For example:
$ my_test_script
PROVIDE INPUT:

The use will copy and paste the following line from the "Word" document which will look something like that:

FMEMBIT_2.DTA FLAGS: 0 6 7 19 21 24 25 28 29 31
FMEMBIT_3.DTA FLAGS: 0 1 3 8 9 12 14 18 19 24 31
FMEMBIT_4.DTA FLAGS: 4 6 7 8 9 12 15 16 19 22 23 27

I need to capture those lines and output them to the file...
I am in ksh and was trying to use "read" but it captures only the first line....
Thanks a lot for any advice..... Cheers -A
