Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Copy of array by index value fails Post 303012762 by Don Cragun on Thursday 8th of February 2018 01:34:35 PM

The command at the end of your script:
Code:
echo ${modified_file[@]} >> $output_file

will produce a single line of output in your output file with all sequences of 1 or more adjacent <space>s, <tab>s, and <newline>s replaced by single <space>s.

But, if you input file is not a list of numbers, I missed anything in what you have shown us that would convert text to numbers. However, there is obviously a lot of code that you haven't shown us and we can't guess at what transformations might be taking place there.

If you would give us more details (like a couple of sample input files and the output files you are trying to produce from them), this does look like something that would be easy to do in ed, sed, or awk.

What operating system are you using?
