Match File and Copy File Script (Homework, Closed)

Can you please help on this?

I am looking for the shell script which does following:-

step 1: It should open the file /u/manish/input/FileIndex.dat and read line by line

step 2: Once first line is read (for ex: File1), we have to find a file, that contains this matching filename in the data directory.

step3: if the matching filename is found in the /u/manish/data directory,
step4: These selected files are to be 'copied' to the /u/manish/output directory.

step5: back to step1, for reading the second and subsequent lines in the /u/manish/input/FileIndex.dat file.


Thank you
