Bash to search file based off user input then create new file
In the below bash a file is downloaded when the program is opened and then that file is searched based on user input and the result is written to a new file.
For example, the bash is opened and the download.txt is downloaded, the user then enters the id (NA04520). The id is used to search download.txt and the line is written to match.txt. The code runs but no output result. Eventually, I will search for specific text in the line that id was found in, but I figured getting the search based of user input was a to work is a good start. Thank you .

fscanf
FSCANF(3) 1 FSCANF(3)fscanf - Parses input from a file according to a formatSYNOPSIS
mixed fscanf (resource $handle, string $format, [mixed &$...])
DESCRIPTION
The function fscanf(3) is similar to sscanf(3), but it takes its input from a file associated with $handle and interprets the input
according to the specified $format, which is described in the documentation for sprintf(3).
Any whitespace in the format string matches any whitespace in the input stream. This means that even a tab in the format string can
match a single space character in the input stream.
Each call to fscanf(3) reads one line from the file.
PARAMETERS
o $handle
-A file system pointer resource that is typically created using fopen(3).
o $format
- The specified format as described in the sprintf(3) documentation.
o $...
- The optional assigned values.
RETURN VALUES
If only two parameters were passed to this function, the values parsed will be returned as an array. Otherwise, if optional parameters are
passed, the function will return the number of assigned values. The optional parameters must be passed by reference.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
fscanf(3) Example
<?php
$handle = fopen("users.txt", "r");
while ($userinfo = fscanf($handle, "%s %s %s
")) {
list ($name, $profession, $countrycode) = $userinfo;
//... do something with the values
}
fclose($handle);
?>
