Using Shell Script To Loop Program Through Multiple Text Files

Hello,

So I have approximately 300 files of raw data (.txt) files that I am using to perform statistical analysis. I have been able to construct a Fortran program that is able to perform my statistical analysis on a file by file basis.

However, I now want to be able to loop program through all of the text files through the use of a shell script, rather than going running the program ~300 times which is not realistic.

I'm thinking about performing some sort of a Do Loop in the terminal to loop through the program with for each file. However, I do not know how to change my fortran program such that I can replace the name of the file to open/write to.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

NAME
3Depict - 3D scalar point cloud visualization and analysis SYNOPSIS
3depict <file1><file2>... DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the 3Depict command 3depict is a program that allows for visualisation and analysis of point datasets with associated spectral data. Note that the program is a best-effort system. It is by no means guaranteed that the algorithms in this program are free form errors in implementation, or follow conventions for any specific user-application. OPTIONS
This program has no command line options, other than a sequence of data or XML files to open, the XML files being containing a previous program state (this may be generated from within the program's graphical interface). Currently the program can read "POS" (position) for- matted files, which are simply uncompressed sequences of 4-byte floats (IEEE 597) in (x,y,z,value) form. All other work is done through the graphical interface. As a further note, the XML file format has not been stabilised for the 0.0.x series; and may change between revisions AUTHOR
