Probably a very straight forward question but please be easy on me, I am v. new to UNIX!
A script that I have runs the line
tmp=`pwd -H`
It works fine, but I needed to make a couple of other changes to the script, nowhere near this line but now this line reports:

Have another question that has been eluding me all day.
I have data file I'm trying to reformat so that each line is appended with an ID code, but the ID code needs to update as it searches through the file.
I.e.
----Begin Original Datafile-----
Condition = XXX

Heya fellows

ppmtopgm(1) General Commands Manual ppmtopgm(1)NAME
ppmtopgm - convert a portable pixmap into a portable graymap
SYNOPSIS
ppmtopgm [ppmfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a portable pixmap as input. Produces a portable graymap as output. The output is a "black and white" rendering of the original
image, as in a black and white photograph. The quantization formula used is .299 r + .587 g + .114 b.
Note that although there is a pgmtoppm program, it is not necessary for simple conversions from pgm to ppm , because any ppm program can
read pgm (and pbm ) files automatically. pgmtoppm is for colorizing a pgm file. Also, see ppmtorgb3 for a different way of converting
color to gray. And ppmdist generates a grayscale image from a color image, but in a way that makes it easy to differentiate the original
colors, not necessarily a way that looks like a black and white photograph.
QUOTE
Cold-hearted orb that rules the night
Removes the colors from our sight
Red is gray, and yellow white
But we decide which is right
And which is a quantization error.
