Reading file line by line in cshell

I want to read a file in cshell line by line. But it is reading the values by spaces....

For Ex, my file1 :
Code:
word1 word2 word3
word5 word6


By below script, variable taking the values separated by space
Code:
foreach v ( `cat file`)
echo $v
end

the output will be like,
Code:
word1 
word2 
word3
word5 
word6

I want these values to be read line by line instead of space by space..

Could you suggest on this pls?

Thanks again.

pydhcplib.strlist(3)						     PYDHCPLIB						      pydhcplib.strlist(3)

NAME
pydhcplib.strlist - Internal type of pydhcplib for lists of bytes processing. SYNOPSIS
from pydhcplib.type_hw_addr import hwmac a = strlist() a = strlist([100,100,10,42,44,26]) DESCRIPTION
The class pydhcplib.strlist is an specific type of pydhcplib. It exist in order to simplify processing of raw data from network. When a dhcp packet dhcp is received, it's a succession of approximately 300 bytes. Within pydhcplib these data are transformed in an intermediary form of type "strlist" in order to facilitate their handling. This intermediary form will eventually be suppressed in the stable versions of pydhcplib to speedup the processing time, but backward compatibility will be assured. The pydhcplib.strlist class creation argument can be a list of numbers whose value goes from 0?55. The pydhcplib.strlist class creation argument can be a string of ASCII character. METHODS
The implemented methods in this type are mostly comparison methods (= =, >, etc...) else : str() convert the address into a printable string type. list() convert the address into a list of bytes. EXAMPLES
Example program strlist_example.py : from pydhcplib.type_strlist import strlist word = strlist() word1 = strlist("azerty") word2 = strlist("qwerty") word3 = strlist([97, 122, 101, 114, 116, 121]) print "a0 : ",word print "a1 : ",word1 print "a2 : ",word2 print "a3 : ",word3 if word1 == word2 : print "test 1 : ",word1, "==",word2 else : print "test 1 : " ,word1, "!=",word2 if word1 == word3 : print "test 2 : ", word1, "==",word3 else : print "test 2 : ", word1, "!=",word3 SEE ALSO
