If you don't read lines (filenames) with spaces it isn't necessary to change the IFS.

Hi there,
I'm writing a basic script where I want to make a string of 2 numeric fields from a file, which I have done, but the behavior is rather confusing.
I have a file of random values such as:
1 2
3 4
5 6
7 8
9 10
and my awk code is:
BEGIN { FS = " " }
{ str = str $1 $2 }

RBASH(1) General Commands Manual RBASH(1)
NAME
rbash - restricted bash, see bash(1)
RESTRICTED SHELL
If bash is started with the name rbash, or the -r option is supplied at invocation, the shell becomes restricted. A restricted shell is
used to set up an environment more controlled than the standard shell. It behaves identically to bash with the exception that the follow-
ing are disallowed or not performed:
o changing directories with cd
o setting or unsetting the values of SHELL, PATH, ENV, or BASH_ENV
o specifying command names containing /
o specifying a file name containing a / as an argument to the . builtin command
o specifying a filename containing a slash as an argument to the -p option to the hash builtin command
o importing function definitions from the shell environment at startup
o parsing the value of SHELLOPTS from the shell environment at startup
o redirecting output using the >, >|, <>, >&, &>, and >> redirection operators
o using the exec builtin command to replace the shell with another command
o adding or deleting builtin commands with the -f and -d options to the enable builtin command
o using the enable builtin command to enable disabled shell builtins
o specifying the -p option to the command builtin command
o turning off restricted mode with set +r or set +o restricted.
These restrictions are enforced after any startup files are read.
When a command that is found to be a shell script is executed, rbash turns off any restrictions in the shell spawned to execute the script.
