I see.

Thanks for your info.

But I just read somewhere that it is due to posix limited environment.

How do I check if my system supports it or not?

Because I think it's really cool if I could use my script that way.

Thanks.

I am using Bourne shell I guess.
Code:
$ ps
   PID TTY       TIME COMMAND
  1114 pts/te    0:00 telnetd
  1115 pts/te    0:00 sh
 10318 pts/te    0:00 ps

I there anyway that I can do to use this process substitution feature?

Thanks.

I can use
Code:
 grep -vxFf complete.list $(cut -c 1-25 source.list)

But it will read the file content Smilie
