Wrongo. In the above x=$(wc -l b.txt) will set x to the line count and b.txt will be read by the script. Not sure what the intent of the script is and if the reading of b.txt is needed. So if b.txt is not needed to be read and just the line count is needed then try something like:
Code:
awk '{print $0, x}' $(wc -l b.txt| read x y; echo x=$x) infile

or just set x prior like:
Code:
wc -l b.txt | read x y
awk '{print $0, x}' x=$x a.txt

openssl_pkcs7_encrypt - Encrypt an S/MIME message

SYNOPSIS
bool openssl_pkcs7_encrypt (string $infile, string $outfile, mixed $recipcerts, array $headers, [int $flags], [int $cipherid = OPENSSL_CIPHER_RC2_40]) DESCRIPTION
openssl_pkcs7_encrypt(3) takes the contents of the file named $infile and encrypts them using an RC2 40-bit cipher so that they can only be read by the intended recipients specified by $recipcerts. PARAMETERS
o $infile - o $outfile - o $recipcerts - Either a lone X.509 certificate, or an array of X.509 certificates. o $headers -$headers is an array of headers that will be prepended to the data after it has been encrypted. $headers can be either an asso- ciative array keyed by header name, or an indexed array, where each element contains a single header line. o $flags -$flags can be used to specify options that affect the encoding process - see PKCS7 constants. o $cipherid - One of cipher constants. RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure. EXAMPLES
Example #1 openssl_pkcs7_encrypt(3) example <?php // the message you want to encrypt and send to your secret agent // in the field, known as nighthawk. You have his certificate // in the file nighthawk.pem $data = <<<EOD Nighthawk, Top secret, for your eyes only! The enemy is closing in! Meet me at the cafe at 8.30am to collect your forged passport! HQ EOD; // load key $key = file_get_contents("nighthawk.pem"); // save message to file $fp = fopen("msg.txt", "w"); fwrite($fp, $data); fclose($fp); // encrypt it if (openssl_pkcs7_encrypt("msg.txt", "enc.txt", $key, array("To" => "nighthawk@example.com", // keyed syntax "From: HQ <hq@example.com>", // indexed syntax "Subject" => "Eyes only"))) { // message encrypted - send it! exec(ini_get("sendmail_path") .
