Loop usage with counter
Hi friends, I just want to try some thing with shell using loop and counter

I have 30 Directory, in each directory number of files say 5, 10, 20 etc...

Code:
directory_1
directory_2
directory_n

what I want to do is read files from directory_1 say 5 files
if my counter is like this
Code:
m=2000   # n is for folder

n=1          # n is for file counter
for file in `ls *.dat |sort -t"_" -k2n,2`; do
awk -F, 'FNR == 1{print '$m',$1,$2,$3,'$n',$5,$6,$7}' OFS="," $file >>file.csv
n=$(( $n+1 )) 
done

output wanted is something like this in single file comma separtated
Code:
column 1 column 2  $1 $2 $3 $..........$7
2000         1              
2000         2
2000         3
2000         4
2000         5
2001         1
2001         2
2002         1

How can I use another counter in my script, also it has to read files from directory_1, directory_2 ....directory_n

Note : directory names are same only after
Code:
_

number is changing

so I think for this also one more counter is needed

Code:
something like this
x=1
cd directory_'x'

awk script

cd ..

increment x

cd directory_'x'  # 2nd directory
awk script... so  on

locale::script

Locale::Script(3pm)					 Perl Programmers Reference Guide				       Locale::Script(3pm)

NAME

       Locale::Script - standard codes for script identification

SYNOPSIS

	  use Locale::Script;

	  $script  = code2script('phnx');		      # 'Phoenician'
	  $code    = script2code('Phoenician'); 	      # 'Phnx'
	  $code    = script2code('Phoenician',
				 LOCALE_CODE_NUMERIC);	      # 115

	  @codes   = all_script_codes();
	  @scripts = all_script_names();

DESCRIPTION

       The "Locale::Script" module provides access to standards codes used for identifying scripts, such as those defined in ISO 15924.

       Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 15924
       four-letter codes will be used.

SUPPORTED CODE SETS

       There are several different code sets you can use for identifying scripts. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a constant
       that is automatically exported by this module.

       For example, the two are equivalent:

	  $script = code2script('phnx','alpha');
	  $script = code2script('phnx',LOCALE_SCRIPT_ALPHA);

       The codesets currently supported are:

       alpha, LOCALE_SCRIPT_ALPHA
	   This is a set of four-letter (capitalized) codes from ISO 15924 such as 'Phnx' for Phoenician.  It also includes additions to this set
	   included in the IANA language registry.

	   The Zxxx, Zyyy, and Zzzz codes are not used.

	   This is the default code set.

       num, LOCALE_SCRIPT_NUMERIC
	   This is a set of three-digit numeric codes from ISO 15924 such as 115 for Phoenician.

ROUTINES

       code2script ( CODE [,CODESET] )
       script2code ( NAME [,CODESET] )
       script_code2code ( CODE ,CODESET ,CODESET2 )
       all_script_codes ( [CODESET] )
       all_script_names ( [CODESET] )
       Locale::Script::rename_script  ( CODE ,NEW_NAME [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Script::add_script  ( CODE ,NAME [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Script::delete_script  ( CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Script::add_script_alias  ( NAME ,NEW_NAME )
       Locale::Script::delete_script_alias  ( NAME )
       Locale::Script::rename_script_code  ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Script::add_script_code_alias  ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Script::delete_script_code_alias  ( CODE [,CODESET] )
	   These routines are all documented in the Locale::Codes::API man page.
