[code]
declare -a arr=("one and one" two three)
[code]
arr=( -- NO spaces
Then a space between each array element - "one and one" makes a single element because it is enclosed in quotes and the quoted blob is set off by spaces.
UNIX does not like ^M characters at the end of lines in shell scripts. If you edit on Windows get an editor that can create unix carriage return files for you.
notepad++ can do that and is free.
