Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers How to echo space or tab delimited values into rows? Post 302539844 by Scott on Tuesday 19th of July 2011 02:25:53 AM

Code:
echo "$LIST"

You could just as easily use ls *.sql, than using grep (except possibly when a very, very large number of files is involved).
