How would I pass awk output to a perl variable?
For example, I want to save the value in the 4th column into the variable called test. My best guess is something as follow, but I am sure this isn't correct.
$test = system("awk '/NUMBER/{print \$4}' $_"); (8 Replies)

I have some output from 'ls' command and I want to loop over the output in a bash script. What would be a good way to go about it?

break
break(3tcl) Tcl Built-In Commands break(3tcl)__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________NAME
break - Abort looping command
SYNOPSIS
break
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
This command is typically invoked inside the body of a looping command such as for or foreach or while. It returns a TCL_BREAK code, which
causes a break exception to occur. The exception causes the current script to be aborted out to the innermost containing loop command,
which then aborts its execution and returns normally. Break exceptions are also handled in a few other situations, such as the catch com-
mand, Tk event bindings, and the outermost scripts of procedure bodies.
EXAMPLE
Print a line for each of the integers from 0 to 5:
for {set x 0} {$x<10} {incr x} {
if {$x > 5} {
break
}
puts "x is $x"
}
