NAME

       line - Reads one line from standard input

SYNOPSIS

       line

STANDARDS

       Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows:

       line:  XCU5.0

       Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry standards and associated tags.

OPTIONS

       None

DESCRIPTION

       The  line  command  copies one line, up to and including a newline, from standard input and writes it to standard output.  Use this command
       within a shell command file to read from your terminal.	The line command always writes at least a newline character.

NOTES

       The line utility has no internationalization features and is marked LEGACY in XCU Issue 5. Use the read utility instead.

EXIT STATUS

       Success.  End-of-File.

EXAMPLES

       To read a line from the keyboard and append it to a file, enter: echo 'Enter comments for the log:' echo ': c' line >>log

       This shell procedure displays the message: Enter comments for the log:

       It then reads a line of text from the keyboard and adds it to the end of the file log.  The echo  ':  c'  command  displays  a	:  (colon)
       prompt.	See the echo command for information about the c escape sequence.
