I understand the idea... I think.

You are making the value of F the file name by listing any file in the directory with *REPORT_*

For W in you are saying have a seperate file with all of the words in it. I see you are using $LIST_OF_WORDS as the variable but where do you call in the actual file name?

Also if the word or phrase that is the file is CARS WITH RED PAINT, I may rename that file to 50_REPORT.CARSRED_1111, so based on what I understand from what you wrote it is using the list of words to write out the file name. So if I had CARS WITH RED PAINT in the list of words or the phrase, it'd make the report name 50_REPORT.CARS WITH RED PAINT_1111. Is there a way to have it make the name of the files different?

I apologize I am trying to pick this up but what you wrote is a little bit over my head.

TC(8)								       Linux								     TC(8)

NAME

       choke - choose and keep scheduler

SYNOPSIS

       tc qdisc ... choke limit packets min packets max packets avpkt bytes burst packets [ ecn ] [ bandwidth rate ] probability chance

DESCRIPTION

       CHOKe  (CHOose  and  Keep  for responsive flows, CHOose and Kill for unresponsive flows) is a classless qdisc designed to both identify and
       penalize flows that monopolize the queue. CHOKe is a variation of RED, and the configuration is similar to RED.

ALGORITHM

       Once the queue hits a certain average length, a random packet is drawn from the queue. If both the to-be-queued and the drawn packet belong
       to  the same flow, both packets are dropped. Otherwise, if the queue length is still below the maximum length, the new packet has a config-
       urable chance of being marked (which may mean dropped).	If the queue length exceeds  max,  the	new  packet  will  always  be  marked  (or
       dropped).  If the queue length exceeds limit, the new packet is always dropped.

       The marking probability computation is the same as used by the RED qdisc.

PARAMETERS

       The parameters are the same as for RED, except that RED uses bytes whereas choke counts packets. See tc-red(8) for a description.
