Full Discussion: Cut a string for last 8 characters
Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Cut a string for last 8 characters Post 302846935 by nnani on Monday 26th of August 2013 04:06:49 AM

Hello,

My loop is like this

Code:
TPT_PATH='/home/ctl/tpt'
CP_PATH='/home/ctl/copy'

for line in filelist.txt ;
do
  if [ -f $TPT_PATH/$line ]
     then
     echo "###################################################################################################" >> $CP_PATH/$line

The problem is when i write the echo statement into the file the file is named as .tpt.ctl, instead i need it to be .copy.vsql
So I want to put a variable inside this loop which takes maiden name of file without .tpt.ctl and then I can use the variable in echo statement >> $CP_PATH/$variable.copy.vsql

Thanks you all.
